Would you have the same reaction to a woman posting "but what about women?" In a post talking about men?

[–] velma@sh.itjust.works -1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (2 children)

Yes. It's literally the waffles/pancakes meme.

Two women talking do not have to talk about men.

[–] wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Okay well it happens all the time. Like men talking about something that effects them as men and someone goes "why do you hate women?!?"

I agree that that's pancakes and waffles, but only calling it out when it's men commenting on a post about women is a double-standard. Very likely the men who pointed that out on this post were doing so as a result of and/or to call out that double-standard.

[–] velma@sh.itjust.works -1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Can you show me an example of this happening in this community?

Because we have men actually asking "what about men?" in this thread right here. It's not theoretical, it actually happened.

[–] wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

It's not theoretical either. If everything that happens becomes merely "theoretical" as soon as the thread moves out of the all-feed, then we'll be stuck in an endless loop like Groundhog's Day.

I'm telling you it happens all the time and you'd have to be selectively ignoring it not to see it.

If it happens all the time in this community, you would be able to share something with me. I'm honestly curious because I haven't seen that kind of reaction here.

[–] wonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyz -1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I'll point it out next time I see it

[–] velma@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 days ago

I'm excited to see what you mean :)

Two women talking do not have to talk about men, that's correct.

This is not even remotely that meme.

[–] velma@sh.itjust.works 0 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

It's two women talking to each other.

Saying girls get made fun of for everything does not mean these women are claiming boys are never made fun of.
