Jenny Mollen Skewered for PDA With ‘Toxic’ Tween Son

Over the weekend, a post broke containment and went viral.

The post’s creator was Jenny Mollen, a comedian and — more importantly — a mom.

Whatever her intentions, her mother-son PDA had some people calling for an investigation.

And, when you see the post for yourself, you might see why. …

‘The most toxic guy you will ever date’

Late last week, Mollen took to Facebook to share a series of photos featuring her and her 12-year-old son on a bed.

She and actor Jason Biggs welcomed their firsborn, Sid, back in February 2014.

In the photos of the now-deleted post, Mollen shared photos of her holding her son, seeming to lie between his legs.

Different families have different ways of expressing love. Some hold hands while watching a movie. Some kiss on the mouth. There’s a lot of variety.

But lying between her tween son’s legs was not, it turned out, the most eyebrow-raising part of the post.

Oh Jenny Mollen Biggs being a weird ass BoyMom™ was not on my bingo card but here we are.

Mollen’s post indicated that she was listening to “’03 Bonnie & Clyde” by Beyoncé and Jay-Z.

Speaking of toxic couples, the comedian’s caption is what really drew people’s ire.

“Your eldest son will be the most toxic guy you ever date,” Mollen wrote.

The PDA is one thing. The caption is another.

The two in conjunction had people on virtually every social media platform calling for an actual investigation, seemingly accusing Mollen of some sort of wrongdoing.

Many people just saw this as a random ‘boymom’ post

To be clear, many — perhaps most — of those who saw this image saw it robbed of its context.

Many versions of the screenshot of the (now deleted) post did not even include the name of the poster.

And (with all due respect to Ms. Mollen) not everyone knows who she is.

Seeing that a comedian posted something like that might make you wince at a joke that didn’t land as intended.

Seeing that a random woman posted it might make you worry. Or, at the very least, it seems unintentionally funny, like that “a girlfriend is a sister you choose” greeting card.

TMZ spoke to a source close to Mollen, one who spoke a great deal like a publicist might.

“The picture is nothing more than a mother hugging her 12 year-old son,” the source emphasized.

“Any one inferring anything else should be ashamed of themselves,” the source then condemned.

As far as the caption goes, the same individual dismissed it: “She’s a comedian.”

For the record, Mollen joked that her then-newborn son’s penis was “huge” back in 2014. So it doesn’t seem like her very recent split with Biggs is to blame.
