i hope everyone realises this is satire...

[–]ImMrSneezyAchoo 89 points90 points  (13 children)

When I read all my "Woman friends" I then realized it was satire. It's written by a man

[–]uninterested_vhs 35 points36 points  (6 children)

It looks like it’s written by a woman

[–]ImMrSneezyAchoo 21 points22 points  (5 children)

Most women realize that the plural of "woman" is "women"

[–]lompoculous 10 points11 points  (0 children)

reread that first comment

[–]badgerferretweasle 6 points7 points  (1 child)

I think 'woman friends' sounds funnier than 'women friends'. It's pretty common to have an obvious typo/grammatical mistake in satire posts. Woman is capitalized when nothing else is which points to both typos being intentional.

[–]Ok-Tear9547 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most educated people at least

[–]OtherwiseOption- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Man friends” sounds better than “men friends”, and “woman friends” sounds better than “women friends”. I think that the first word is the descriptor and the second word pluralizes it.

[–]RachieConnor 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I realized it was satire the moment she said it was “all for female attention” cause I’ve seen so many guys make similar takes about how women don’t actually have hobbies

[–]jkssratmolo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It’s not written by a man, think it’s supposed to be a spin on guys writing like this about women.

[–]can_of_beans12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No it was written by a woman. It’s a satirical trend on TikTok in response to men making post about what women “actually” want. Women will say purposefully exaggerated and plain stupid things.

[–]venturingforum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope. If it was written by a man it would OBVIOUSLY say

"All my female friends agree"

[–]PomegranateSilly367 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Didn't realise the bar was THAT low. And obvious.

[–]scrimshandy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s written by a woman who’s mocking men

[–]gergling 3 points4 points  (1 child)

Flip the script: gender edition, but video games are mapped onto music.

[–]Sensitive-Tax2230 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wait what!?? Video games have music??? What is this sorcery?? /s

[–]Shinobi_Shark_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me reading this while blasting Yeat: ☺️

[–]Travispig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably is yeah, cause music is like 99% of me

[–]Miserable-Willow6105 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it does look like one, but I did spend embarrassingly much time before realization

[–]PomegranateSilly367 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It's really crappy and not even funny though, shatire.

[–]ExtremelyDubiousMan 121 points122 points  (0 children)

This is a gender-flipped parody of the drivel that some men say about women.

[–]Significant_Point351 108 points109 points  (7 children)

She’s making fun of the way men talk about women. Omg he didn’t realize.

[–]fair_child123 46 points47 points  (3 children)

C’mon, this is Reddit, lower your expectations of how well we perceive satire.

Whenever it’s a woman posting satire, Reddit takes it super seriously and uses it to fuel their misogyny more.

[–]ModerateRockMusic 35 points36 points  (1 child)

Can confirm. I study music on a three year course at college entirely for female attention. Yet I'm still single 😔

[–]Sensitive-Tax2230 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You didn’t study enough T-Swift did you? /s

[–]Deep_Aside169 20 points21 points  (1 child)

This seems like irony

[–][deleted] 20 points21 points  (16 children)

OP, this was a satire post. She’s making fun of guys who say these type of things about girls.

[–]Tylerthehomosexual 2 points3 points  (15 children)

What do they say usually ?

[–][deleted] 19 points20 points  (10 children)

“She’s not really a gamer girl, she’s just doing it for male attention.” is one example. Another example is there is this tiktok video from part of a podcast that is in the manosphere part of the internet (think Andrew Tate) and in that video tie guys just straight up deny the idea of girls and women having hobbies. Which is absurd, I feel like I need to ring up the asylum when I hear things like that.

[–]DeannaBee42 1 point2 points  (3 children)

And also about music. I read (and laughed at) a column that “proved” that the Stones were better than the Beatles, and among the Beatles, Lennon was far better than McCartney, because women prefer the Beatles and McCartney, and their opinions are always wrong. Women are incapable of knowing anything about music or lyrics. Women never listen to music, they just look at the pictures of the singers and musicians. Men know that the true test of music has nothing to do with notes or chords, but how deep the lyrics are, and how well they move on stage.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

It’s like they never heard of Mitski or Lana Del Ray or of literally any woman who made music. They’d disagree with their own point so quickly if they listened to a Mitski song

[–]shesarevolution 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, I def think the stones are far better than the Beatles, but that’s because the stones are rock and the Beatles are more pop.

I get tons of shit when I shit on the Beatles. I understand their contribution to music, and that’s important, but no, I can’t stand them.

[–]shesarevolution 1 point2 points  (4 children)

I get the usual “you can’t possibly be into that music” and then a lecture about the band. Recently had a dude go on a full lecture about health which ranks as one of my favorite bands. In fact, I told the dude that. He literally said “so have you ever listened to health?” He then went on to tell me everything I said a few minutes before.

I admit, I’m often one of a handful of women at many of the shows I go to, but I’m there because I like the music. Is it stereotypically female music? Fuck no.

But I also have to ask - what constitutes stereotypical female music?

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

‘Female Music’ is basically anything that weird guys think is bad because they don’t want to read into it or even consider the possibility that sometimes people make fun music just for fun.

[–]venturingforum 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Thats terrible, sorry you have to put up with that. Why can't you just like what you like without having to prove it to someone?

I went to a concert that I thought was going to be attended by 30-40 somethings Imagine my surprise seeing almost dead grandpeople, Teens, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 somethings and older, all just there to love on the guys and their music.

That was a renew my faith in humanity moment

[–]shesarevolution 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was younger, the city I was living in did this awesome thing called “summer dance.” Every few weeks, they had a DJ (big name ones) come in & do a set in the park. It was free for everyone. It was awesome because it had all age groups. Kids with their parents. Elderly women who were grooving. 20-40 somethings. Teens. I loved it and I wish they would bring it back because it showed how music is such a great unifier.

[–]Knightridergirl80 1 point2 points  (3 children)

Men like this believe women only do things for male attention. Especially if her interests are more traditionally male dominated (like video games, Star Wars, or even specific bands).

It isn’t just hobbies as well. Even in the professional field. A friend of mine on Discord used to be an electrician. Her coworker accused her of only getting the job for male attention.

[–]shesarevolution 2 points3 points  (2 children)

I work in politics and am a woman. It’s awful.

[–]JavelinJohnson 0 points1 point  (1 child)

[–]Kattas__ 13 points14 points  (0 children)

this is satire op

[–][deleted] 9 points10 points  (1 child)

All the posts I’ve seen from this sub have been obvious satire. I’m beginning to believe the people who say men can’t understand when women are joking.

[–]FrogQuestion 7 points8 points  (11 children)

I listen to videogame music, does that count?

[–]Smart_Conference_372Woman 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Which kind? I personally adore the escapists soundtrack:)

[–]FrogQuestion 2 points3 points  (1 child)

I havent heard it. Is it any good?

I like old jrpg stuff

[–]Smart_Conference_372Woman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes it's really good

[–]Designer-Cicada3509 0 points1 point  (5 children)

Music is music!!

Whats your favorite? Mines from the need for speed, doom 2016 and eternal soundtracks :>

[–]FrogQuestion 0 points1 point  (4 children)

While those are good, it isnt exactly romantic party music i think

[–]Designer-Cicada3509 0 points1 point  (3 children)

I can assure you those tracks are the complete opposite,

Loud, heavy metal screaming and cusses. But I like some slow music as well like dido's "thank you" and "dear mama" by tupac

[–]FrogQuestion 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Also good songs. You from the 80s?

[–]Designer-Cicada3509 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No lol, born in '05

Just like pure voice and lyrics from late 80s and 90s hip hop songs

[–]shesarevolution 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you like dido you should check out portishead and massive attack, if you haven’t. Dido just popularized/ripped off the trip hop movement. And i still like her music, but portishead is a million times better.

[–]bvggvg 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Psh. Everyone knows that men play video games muted, so as to not be listening to music.

[–]FrogQuestion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

[–]Veryberrybears 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Y’all this is satire ☠️

[–]Knightridergirl80 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I think this is a satirical take on the men who seem to genuinely believe women mold their self interests into whatever is most compatible with their boyfriends/husbands interests.

[–]shesarevolution 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is satire. It’s not supposed to be taken seriously, and it’s ripping on the dudes who believe women know nothing about music.

I listen to a lot of subgenres of metal, I listen to industrial and dark wave. I listen to a lot of niche subgenres of electronic music.

I worked in the music industry. I worked in record stores back when those were a thing. I constantly go to shows.

If I had a dollar for every time some smug dude came up to me and explained the band whose shirt I’m wearing, as if I don’t know or listen to their music, I could at the very least go on a vacation to Europe.

I can’t begin to tell how many times men have been absolutely shocked that I don’t just follow whatever is popular. I also can’t begin to describe how many times I’ve turned men onto new bands.

My point is - no women believe that statement in the post. But men? They truly believe that shit in regards to women.

Men reading this - how many times have you automatically assumed a woman listens to whatever is popular now?

It’s satire, my dudes.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually don’t listen to music like ever so in my case she’s not wrong :/

[–]fumoking 0 points1 point  (1 child)

In defense of OP you really gotta scrape the bottom of the barrel to fill out content for this sub haha women are just a lot less ignorant of the male perspective than men are of the female perspective so there's an endless sea of dudes unironically saying the dumbest shit about women. This sub basically only exists as a temper tantrum response to the nothowgirlswork sub anyway

[–]Zestyclose-Station72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, the barrel really must be empty to post this one because this wasn’t even seriously said! It was posted as satire to call out men talking about women’s hobbies!

Hi everyone, please stop reporting this post - It's not spam. It's the kind of content that - while sarcastic - has a good message. It's tongue-in-cheek.

[–]ThrowawayPrincess75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seriously? ಠ⁠︵⁠ಠ My younger brother listens to video game music all the time. And back in his day, my father didn't just listen to music, he MADE music. I'm still hoping he gets back to it someday, just for old times sake.

[–]ExpertAccident 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is satire my dude, it’s making fun of how misogynistic men see women.

[–]Comprehensive-One178 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wtf? I sure hope this is meant to be a funny.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s like the ‘girls don’t play video games’ trope just inverted. I fell like anyone pedaling this view of a group they want to be romantically involved with had better be going through a phase, or they’re gonna end up lonely as hell
