Christina Aguilera: 'Women need time to nurture themselves'Superstar Christina Aguilera has called out unfair expectations placed on women and revealed that they shouldn't be so hard on themselves after giving birth. During a new interview with Women's Health magazine, the songstress admitted that it's hard to live up to the unrealistic expectations put on new mothers: "Mothers are constantly expected to be the nurturers, the givers, the providers of a comfortable home. We’re expected to be pregnant, have the kids, breastfeed once we have the babies. And we’re expected to look amazing after baby, right?" She continued: "[We're expected to] keep our husbands and boyfriends interested—because we’re supposed to get back to sexy and keep things exciting in the bedroom. There’s such a long list. Having children is the ultimate joy, and I love my kids, but women have to find time to nurture themselves. If someone has a baby, the first thing I’m like is, ‘Okay, are you taking care of you?’” Follow us: @Pressparty on Twitter / Pressparty on Facebook
