    I feel exactly the same way about ActiveRecord ORMs. That’s why I created PluSQL:

    "The saddest thing about the "object–relational impedance mismatch" is that the focus went totally to the wrong side. The relational model is a much nicer way to model relations than a graph of objects (that's the whole point after all)."

    I found the same thing. When I was using ORMs I always found them clunky for all but the simplest tasks, where I would long for an easy way to use SQL and have it "just work" for objects, so I created this:

    https://github.com/iaindooley/PluSQL

    It's obviously not been maintained but I think it's a model that has legs: that is, simply the creation of SQL with some convenience methods, allow the use of completely arbitrary SQL, and then intuit the object mapping automatically without loading the entire result set into memory.
