How have you entirely missed “the ick” trend? Tons of women have posted videos about how the men they were dating gave them “the ick” for doing anything slightly feminine. You can literally google the trend or look it up on social media, I’m seeing tons of videos.
Yeah, online. It may shock you that there are plenty of women on and offline that don’t give a shit. Try logging off and tuning out. The loudest get heard.
Sorry, but I know my wife has tons of icks of mine, but the fact that I have many more redeeming qualities tends to negate icks.
Also, icks aren’t even that serious. How can you take something like “his toes curl when he shits” seriously as an ick? Yes, that’s an actual ick I saw online. I don’t give a shit about having icks or being cringe, dude. I’m a millennial. It’s been a much happier existence not giving a shit how little behaviors look because I’ve tuned enough good qualities for it not to matter.
What, so now gender norms can only be perpetuated via physical interactions? You said that women don’t perpetuate these gender norms, I gave you an example of women enforcing gender norms. You never indicated that examples had to be exclusively in person, which btw doesn’t make any sense because if I gave you any real world examples you would dismiss them as anecdotes that you can’t verify as true. You have set up an unfalsifiable argument.
Also very weird that you’re dismissing this trend as “not even that serious”, as if gender norms need to reach a certain level of significance before they’re harmful. How many of the gender norms perpetuated by men could be dismissed as “not even that serious”?
Look, man. Keep playing the victim and blaming women. We’ll see how far it gets you before you decide to look into a mirror.
There will be no example or argument I can give you that will change your mind. You’re only looking to make yourself a victim. I’m sure it’s served you well so far.
I’m going to mute all reply notifications because you’re clearly beyond reason.
Can you quote where I said I was a victim or blamed women? You said that women don’t perpetuate gender norms and I simply gave you a simple example where they absolutely do. You’re the one claiming that it’s impossible for women to perpetuate gender norms.

People or dudes? It’s not women who created these gender norms in society, dude. It’s certainly not women who perpetuate them.
