Survey Says Denzel Washington Is The Guy Women Want to Tuck Them In

To celebrate Mother's Day, Lifetime Television's latest Pulse Poll survey found Oscar winner Denzel Washington was the guy women want to tuck them in at night, besting Mario Lopez and Matthew Fox.
Tim McGraw out-paced Will Smith and Patrick Dempsey for the role of "Mr. Mom" to clean the house and help take care of the kids -- which makes perfect sense since cleaning is the chore (51%) women would most like someone else to handle.
According to the Pulse Poll, part of Lifetime's ongoing dialogue with women, an overwhelming number (77%) feel raising a child is far more difficult than a generation ago. If only Mom were more help, since 27% insist their mothers were horrible at giving advice. Perhaps that explains why just 36% wish they were more like their own Moms. Nearly as many, 31%, wished they were less like their mothers, citing neuroses, fashion sense and physique as the traits they are glad they didn't inherit.
As for fave Mother's Day presents, 61% of respondents selected hugs and kisses, trailed by a handmade gift/card from a loved one; 45% chose spa treatments and 39% a romantic dinner. But who to hire as a babysitter when you're out with your significant other? Not Ozzy Osbourne, Paris Hilton or Kevin Federline, none of whom broke 2% in the Poll as potential diaper- changers.
When it came to most popular songs with Mom in the title, Willie Nelson's "Mama Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to be Cowboys" and Paul Simon's "Mother and Child Reunion" led, but 7% of respondents submitted their own nominees, ranging from "One Hot Mama," "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus" to "My Yiddishe Mama."
As for hippest celebrity Moms, Gwen Stefani and Angelina Jolie topped the list (Britney Spears polled a paltry 0.4%) and, as far as who might join the ranks of motherhood this year, 38% selected Jennifer Lopez, followed by Christina Aguilera (15%) and Jennifer Aniston (12%).
