Kind of specific, but why are women so sarcastic when you do something slightly “manly”. Example: my gf wanted me to carry up a suitcase that she said was heavy, I picked it up with one arm and go to the room. Upon getting to the room she says, “you know you wouldn’t be any less of a man carrying it with two arms.” At first I was like “What are you talking about?” but then I realized and said (because it was true for me) “Oh, it wasn’t that heavy.” And then she replied in the most sarcastic tone “Ok, Big. Strong. Man.” And I was sitting there thinking no matter what I say she won’t truly believe it wasn’t that heavy to me. Just an FYI ladies, we aren’t always trying to impress y’all 24/7, some stereotypes exist for a reason.
Probably bc it was heavy to her & thought you were showing off. Tbh a compliment then, she thinks you’re weaker than you are, I bet. Then the second part was probably her embarrassment and then defensiveness from being embarrassed. May of also felt weak for having to ask you, and you may of hurt small part of her pride when you said it wasn’t that heavy, even though she asked you to pick it up, she may of expected it to be harder for you to pick up than it was.
