Grimes wants more people to discuss MILFs.

MILFs, an acronym for "mother I'd like to fuck," have been a pop culture from 1999 teen comedy American Pie to 2003 Fountains of Wayne classic "Stacy's Mom." But Grimes, who shares three children with tech billionaire Elon Musk, wants to keep them in the conversation.

"There's not enough MILF discourse," Grimes tweeted on Tuesday (January 6).

When one person replied by calling the vocalist an "unusual MILF," Grimes claimed that mothers and women past 30 years old see an increase in male suitors.

"A lot of my gf also had way more guys hit on them after they had kids too tho and generally moreso post 30," she responded.

One person who certainly won't be joining the 'discourse' is Musk, who Grimes claims blocked her on social media, despite the exes being parents to son X Æ A-Xii, 5, daughter Exa Dark Sideræl, 4, and son Techno Mechanicus, 3. Grimes and Musk split in 2021 after three years of dating. The Tesla founder and CEO also has an additional eleven children from other relationships.

"For context I’m just living my life," Grimes tweeted in December. "He followed me then blocked me. I’m not gna be following and unfollowing. My only priority is co parenting, I am not interested in public dramatics."

The year before, Grimes revealed that she had been locked into a lengthy custody battle with her former partner and claimed that she hadn't seen one of her children for five months.
