Spotify throws casual sexism into Mother's Day tweet, gets schooled.

“Ahead of #Mothersday, how would you explain Spotify to your mom?” Was the question posted in the now deleted Spotify tweet. As soon as it was tweeted out, people responded offended by the “ageist/sexist” tweet. It’s never wise to mess with peoples moms.

Happy Mother’s Day, mom! I will now mansplain @spotify for you.— Kristen Chase (@thatkristen) May 9, 2015

Hey kids, Mom here…explain this situation to @spotify? Because apparently my biz degree+IT background => stupid https://t.co/nIbgwxWO6m— Femme Malheureuse (@Femme_Mal) May 9, 2015

Looks like if I decide to start paying for streaming music, this engineer, coder, mom will be using @pandora_radio over @Spotify .— Kim Curry (@stargazer_412) May 9, 2015

. @SpotifyCares long time premium user here: really disappointed with your ageist/sexist #MothersDay promotion. My mom already uses @spotify— Sean Markey (@seanmarkey) May 9, 2015

Should’ve taken a screenshot. The gist: “How would you explain @Spotify to your mom? ‘The cloud…no, not those clouds.'”— Ashley Myers (@OrganizeFISH) May 9, 2015

Apparently Spotify asked somebody’s mom how to delete tweets.— Liza Daly (@liza) May 9, 2015
