    Yes, but why are we making fun of a guy for doing what he loves (posting “but what about men?” In a post talking about women)?

    (This is a joke btw.)

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

        Two women talking do not have to talk about men.

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

          This is not even remotely that meme.

            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.

          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.

            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.

              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 we don’t make fun of him for litterally everything he does he’ll never realize he has license to do what he wants
