And this one even has a little homophobia sprinkled in.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 2 months ago (3 children)

I think homosexuality has reached a level of societal acceptance(at least in the west), that it is ok to be ironically homophobic again.

Then again, some might argue that being against nazis was a societal norm, so being ironically nazi was fine too. Yet here we are now, where being unironically nazi is somewhat acceptable by a large part of the society.

And being homophobic is even more acceptable by a large part of the society.

I had a friend who excitedly told me about their new car but neglected to mention their 6 month old son.

Stereotypes, get your stereotypes, fresh gender stereotypes right here.

Men who don't marry are gay and woman are always mad at each other over nothing.

[–] [email protected] 62 points 2 months ago (2 children)

The guy didn't explicitly say he married a woman, might still be gay.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 months ago

My first thought ^^

Also it's not manly to share your life with a friend apparently.

I'm 40+ and a couple of months ago started therapy. I didn't even knew I needed therapy, went with my wife for couple therapy and it quickly turned into personal therapy.

What I learned after some tests is that I fall into the top 4% of men who are emotional closed off. This is pretty extreme, but maybe the worst part is, I never even knew. This is the stereotype we teach boys, men don't have emotions, they don't talk about emotions, etc.

And we wonder why there's a male loneliness epidemic

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It's because of women hating all men of course.

Keep in mind they call each other bro because in 45 years they don't even know each others names since they met.

Would die for each other tho.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I have friends that i know for 10+ years and i don't know their real names

And it’s ultimately insulting to men too, like the idea of being excited to share personal news is somehow anathema to the male experience.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 2 months ago (5 children)

I don't know how serious one has to take themselves to find this "ultimately insulting". It's a silly meme and it's funny because most men can relate to it.

I enjoyed the stereotype to laugh it but I feel obligated to state one thing. Relationships require maintenance, that's it regardless of boy or girl. Sure some people might say hi back but that doesn't mean they're a friend.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 months ago

Idunno I have quite a few friends where we only interact like every 4-8 months ish. But when we do we talk everyday for a month or two, then go separate ways again. Lifes busy we all know that. Not being in contact does no mean losing a friend.

When offer to go to lunch with someone you haven't seen in 15 years and they respond with as long as its not within 100ft of a school

[–] [email protected] 26 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Ah yes assuming sexual preference based on martial status, just like friends do.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Oh, friends assume sexual preference based on other things too. Like the way you eat a hotdog, what kind of car you drive, how quickly you can recognize that the song is by Kyle Minogue, how long you hold a sloppy french kiss with your homies, wether you you sit with your legs crossed or slow down on a yellow light.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 months ago

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 months ago

This is something I don’t like about guys, as a guy.
