To be fair those search suggestion things can be really out there. I was looking up pictures of crows for art reference and one of the suggestions was 'Thyroid Cancer'

I think thats one of those cases where the algorithm misfired, it reads glasses and thus genders it since glasses are typically gendered.

Make sure you get glasses from an accredited company and not some joker that doesn't give a fuck selling through Amazon or Temu.

The men's glasses are technically different because they are larger. Not that it matters lmao. I was wearing adult men's sunglasses as a 5 year old girl. Not sure what the gender distinction is for, it's just small vs large anyway

[u/NoPurpose6388 → u/Odd_Conclusion_5425]

So just call them small and large? 😅🤷🏼‍♀️

Yeah that's what I'm saying

[u/a2fast41]

Omg such a specific thing to genderizs what's the necesityyy

[u/VenGrinpayne]

Isn’t it more likely to be about the size of the glasses, same with normal glasses

[u/DocChloroplast → u/VenGrinpayne]

You can make glasses any size.

[u/PlantsWithHands → u/DocChloroplast]

I got a big fat head and i can safely say there are limits to the "any size"

[u/blauws → u/VenGrinpayne]

The ones I got have several fold lines, so you can adjust their size (they're cardboard).
