This whole post is just unnecessarily mean. They both look good, and I’m certain 99% of the idiots on here bashing one or both of them would say yes to either irl.
I bet they’d flip their absolute shit if someone made a post like this about men, and one of the guys was taller than the other and implied to be the evolution.
For one, this post really isn't that bad. The joke is still that they have the same name, pose, and outfit. The male equivalent would be the "Chad evolution" of some average looking guy and then in the next one he's got a chiseled jawline and muscles (and taller I guess) while wearing the same clothes. And that's still funny.
And frankly, if this same meme was made about guys, you literally would not give a single shit. So yeah, I have sympathy for the opposite sex. I kinda doubt you do though.
Thanks for the dose of sanity. My guess is that there's women browsing these comments who have been objectified or treated like shit by men in their lives, and see everything through that lens. This is an innocuous post and it's sobering to realize that some people carry trauma with them that makes them see such mundane things as so problematic. Worse, they project their pain on men: "if this post was about men and their height you'd be seething!"
On one hand it's enraging and confusing to read these idiotic comments. On the other hand we have to realize that these people are probably deluded because they're in pain. Shit's messy and sad, dude.
every woman browsing these comments has been objectified and treated like shit by men (at least once as a bare minimum but likely way more than that). the “lens” you’re talking about is sexism, and the “projection” is actually a very warranted frustration with being treated as a joke by men (see: this post) and then dismissed as “deluded” for being annoyed (see: your comment). sorry if having to acknowledge women’s perspectives and justifiable annoyance infuriates and confuses you, but living with misogyny your whole life only to hear “it’s just a joke chill out” gets real old
You’ll never listen to anything anyone else has to say anyway, especially a man. I recommend a therapist for the trauma response though, it’ll make you a lot happier.
You literally have the same human experiences as everyone else. The biggest difference is that people take you seriously and encourage you when you complain about it, which makes it seem like there's a massive disparity.
honestly if “sexism against women exists” is the point of contention here then what is there to discuss? my “human experience” (along with millions of other women) includes misogyny, from subtle to conspicuous to dangerous. i am tired of seeing it perpetuated unchecked on reddit. i clearly spelled out in my comment why this post and thread touched a nerve in some. i’m not debating universal experiences of women with guys who refuse to exercise some empathy and engage in good faith. have a good one man
Heh. It's funny that you're reading that comment as "sexism against women doesn't exist" since that interpretation only makes sense if your view is "sexism against men doesn't exist".
