As if watching mom-son duo Ethan and Esther flirting with each other wasn't bad enough, 'I Love A Mama's Boy' fans were put through yet another cringe episode. Esther began advising her future daughter-in-law Leyna on how to "please" men, including her future husband Ethan.

After quietly enduring watching her man being flirty with his mother for months, Leyna was left fuming when Esther decided to show up unannounced and uninvited to her bachelorette party. Even though Leyna made it very clear that she didn't want her a the bachelorette party, Esther blatantly ignored her wishes and popped up at the party. Leyna decided to set some boundaries before walking down the aisle with Ethan. So, she sat down with Esther and explained to her how her and Ethan's flirty behavior was extremely disrespectful to her. Instead of trying to understand Leyna's concerns, Esther shrugged it off by saying she was just being affectionate with her sons. When Leyna pointed out how it made her jealous watching Ethan shower his mother with praises and not her, Esther once again tried to diffuse the situation by trying to teach Leyna how to "please" men. Esther suggested that Leyna keep complimenting Ethan. She also suggested her future daughter-in-law to be more open in the bedroom as according to her, women are easily "replaceable" in men's lives.

After hearing Esther's outdated and inappropriate advice to Leyna, several fans took to Twitter to call her out. A fan tweeted, "Esther is telling her son’s fiancée how to make her son feel sexier. Nope. Stop. I can’t. Make him cookies and then go upstairs and never say never. You’re horrifying as a mom and a mother in law. #ILoveAMamasBoy."

"You’re talking to the wrong person Léyna. You need to talk to your man, not his mama. Also, Esther’s advice to make him cookies and give him sex, is gross!!! “We’re replaceable.” #misogyny #iloveamamasboy," wrote a fan.

"#ILoveAMamasBoy WE'RE replaceable. What you won't do, someone else will. Didn't think it was possible but she somehow managed to make her situation with her son sound worse," added a fan. "What the hell is wrong with Ethan’s mothers #iloveamamasboy your replaceable," commented a fan.

Another fan shared, "Esther: if you don’t make your man feel sexy someone else will. Like me. …with MY SON. #ILoveAMamasBoy." "Esther is a cougar for her son and that's sick #ILoveAMamasBoy," seconded a fan.

"Esther you are doing entirely too much please stop talking. How about not giving a lesson on how to please your son #ILoveAMamasBoy," wondered a fan. "#iloveamamasboy No Esther. Mothers love their kids and are affectionate NOT flirty..Ethan is another one who should stay home with mama and let Leyna find a man who has an appropriate relationship with his mom. There are red flags all over this scenario," pointed out a fan.
