    Not the man cave 💀

    Because the men can’t talk to women about anything other than sports, how annoying le wife is and making boomer grade sexist jokes. I don’t know why. Toxic masculinity maybe. Can’t have feelings or niche interests as a man otherwise you’re a pariah. I have a somewhat flamboyant clothing style, I have an earring and often wear a moustache of some sort. I don’t look like a proper tough lad even though I’ve done factory work for years, do fight training, sports, typical tough guy shit. But still men feel the need to either not talk to me, try to talk me down or outright insult me when they see me. Women don’t have this problem apparently. It’s just so tiring. And I’m cishet. Can’t Imagine what non cishet people go through.

    Spent my entire youth surrounded in these type of situations. At least my parents are able to be normal so I had some example of how to be a functional person.

      It’s ridiculous, you find the same mechanics now in younger cishet white dude groups where they’ve added politics, crypto, stock trading and COD into the mix and its like omg your all copy pastes of each other 💀

      I think women do just not as much and not in the same overly competitive and chauvinistic way.
