You all ever tried saying 'excuse me'?
Adding this to the long list of things women aren't allowed to enjoy while hurting absolutely no one (uggs, Starbucks, rose, candles, just anything branded feminine)
Edit: for the tone deaf people in the back who say this isn't about women, look again. The whole package of 'OMG', exclamation marks, 'annoying kids', two moms, some annoying trait, is all dog-whistle for people who like to trivialize things women do. This isn't a unique phenomenon in memes. See how men elevate, and women ruin the foods they love.
Before you comment, think about the relevance of your own experiences. Lemmy's userbase is 77% men and sometimes it shows.
Harmless meme: *exists*
People like you: THIS IS MISOGINY
wtf
Ironic that he's pulling the misogyny card when it's sexist itself to assume that the meme was referring to woman
The meme is literally two women.
It's a stock photo
It’s literally a picture of two women, the comments are all about women here, the tone is clearly meant to describe a stereotype. Are you joking?
No no, this is truly an attack on the female sex don't you see? No funny relatable memes allowed in this regard.
It's "relatable" that you're bothered by people you don't know talking in public? Back to moms basement with you.
Oh no the basement card I'm done for.
I'll let you know when I see one!
Misogyny: exists
People like you: THIS IS A HARMLESS MEME
Leave it to Lemmy's 77% male userbase to decide what is and isn't misogyny.
Can you explain why pointing out misogyny is somehow about hating men? I'm struggling with your mental gymnastics here.
Yeah, your right, its also quite ridiculous that being social when meeting old friends isn't a thing that men do, apperantly
What has this to do with women? Men aren't better in this situation
I am sure, the same meme but with two men in the photo wouldn't get so many upvotes. Many people still love sexist clichés.
What makes you assume this has anything to do with genders?
Men do this too just so you know should I add this to the long list of things men aren't allowed to do while hurting absolutely no on one uggs football jerseys rose candles just anything branded masculine
~~Redditors~~ Lemmies are incapable of communicating with feeemales in a normal social context that doesn't involve violence or harassment
Surely rolling my eyes and sighing is a better option.
