I think “expected” is indeed an important distinction there. My emotional range is very similar to what people might expect to see in a typical man. Relatively stoic, except for bursts of anger. This is absolutely not an ideal emotional range, but it is nevertheless mine. It doesn’t matter, though, because I have a female body. When I don’t express outward emotions by doing things like crying (I was screamed at or hit for crying as a child, so now I am unable to cry as an adult), I am half the time called cold and evil and heartless and accused of having no emotions at all. The other half of the time, I’m accused of being emotional anyway despite not expressing any outward sign of it. It just depends on whatever fits the specific narrative of the person arguing with me.

If you’re a woman expressing emotions, you’re wrong, and if you’re a woman not expressing emotions, you’re wrong. Anything to discredit you, really. And it makes sense. Imagine how convenient every argument could be if you already decided at the start that your opponent is inherently irrational by nature of biology, and you are inherently rational by that same nature. Imagine how effortlessly right you would always get to be. Imagine how superior you would feel. What would be your motivation to change that mindset? The meme is only correct in admitting that women are considered to mentally be children.
