I know this guy who is absolutely ridiculous about this.

On one hand, he can't stand women's groups, gets upset about women's sports, can't stop dismissing anything that isn't solely masculine like yoga, dance, and even rages on women artists and musicians.

On the other hand, has BEGGED OUT LOUD to people (I'm not even his friend) to get him connected with "chicks".

I have no idea how to tell this guy he's a miserable hateful fuck who will die alone because of his own personality.

In the US, women couldn’t get credit cards without a co-signer until 1974.

Historically, women had to have a man support them if they wanted options other than poverty. Your grandma probably didn’t have many other options - it might have worked well for her, but that wasn’t a choice made freely.

I think a lot of this is that relationships are a choice now. You have to be someone that someone wants to be with. This is a good thing, but it’s also a hard thing.

It sucks to be lonely and not get laid, but at the same time no one owes you sex or attention.

Yeah the dude in my old neighborhood who drove a Dodge RAM but rearranged the letters so it said "WAR" on the tailgate instead, and had a bumper sticker that said "KILL EVERYTHING" in that script that's like, "badass Gothic tribal" but in reality is just floral minus the actual flowers... Not all clown cars are smol

I've seen this """""meme""""" four times in the last week.

We get it, it's low quality bait. Move along.

I don't think it's intended as bait, but jesus fuck, it sure is taken that way.

[–] daniskarma@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 7 hours ago

First time I thought the same. But it getting spammed as much, surely have a purpose. To me it smells like bait.

The comments on this one really highlights Lemmy's demographics. You can take the men out of reddit but you can't take the reddit out of men lmao

Yeah, I dunno if it was the recent migration or what, but I'm not a fan of the direction that lemmy seems to be headed. This was one of the few online discussion spaces that hadn't been poisoned by right-wing ideology and it seems like that might no longer be the case.

Yes I know about blocking, I just don't like doing it.

[–] user607674@lemm.ee 3 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago)

The "what about men's issues" crowd has been here since the first big migration, mostly due to the demographic most likely to switch to Lemmy being techbro adjacent male liberals. It's been simmering since then but only bubbles up when stuff like this gets posted. .world has been one of if not the biggest offender for annoying bullshit on this platform so just be aware when you see a comment from one of their users you're taking a gamble on viewing one of the dumbest things you've ever seen in your life.

Blocking isn't implemented very well. It prunes out the entire subtree. Would be nice to just elide the problem individuals and fold the subtree.
