According to large corporations, women need razors, shampoo, deodorant and lotion specifically formulated to appeal to them and, of course, to cost more than comparable products marketed to men. But despite how ridiculous the pink tax is, sometimes, it actually is nice when people cater to women.
That’s why today, we’re featuring @laughing.chicks on Instagram, also known as ‘Memes for Women’. Below, you’ll find some of our favorite pics from this account, which actually shares hilarious posts that anyone can enjoy, as well as a conversation with the account's creator. So have fun scrolling through, and be sure to upvote the memes that bring a little sunshine to your day!

I lived most of my life knowing that not everyone was really smart but I didn't realize how dumb so many people actually are. My first inkling of how many people are not only dumb but enjoy being that way was 'Pizza Gate'! I heard about 'Pizza Gate' on the news & thought it was a joke. Lizard People, JFK is alive & well, space lasers being used to start forest fires, & the insanity just keeps on growing.
And many of the others are barely clearing that bar.

You know what I've learned at 65? Most women are smarter than men
Who do you think are smarter, not your generation. How did you draw that conclusion? Study, university etc for 14 + year’s? still I feel not that smart. Show me some article, ! What was your thesis on?
If you’re in need of a new meme account to add to your rotation on Instagram, you’ve come to the right place. @laughing.chicks has become incredibly successful on the platform, amassing an impressive 468k followers through sharing over 15k memes. While the memes may primarily target women, this page doesn’t discriminate, as anyone can appreciate the humor and relatable content shared.
We’re quite big fans of the account here at Bored Panda; in fact, we actually showcased the page a couple of months ago for the first time. And lucky for us, we were previously able to get in touch with the account’s creator to learn more about how it came to be. "Initially, the page began as me creating memes that I thought were funny," they shared. "I was working, and my work is very boring, and I wanted to do something more expressive. So I started creating the page and memes."
The best thing about getting older is....while I do still care, also, I've gotten to the point where I don't care what other people think.
Load More Replies...Not to be dramatic, but this post changed my life when I first saw it. I was like, "Hold up! Damn straight!" and went and bought my big ol' self a bikini. Joy!
That is f*****g inspirational. Sister wants to do her birthday at a hot springs resort in a few days, which I've been dreading. I will keep this in mind tomorrow when I go out in search of a swimsuit!
Load More Replies...Do you have a body and a swimsuit? Bam! You have a swimsuit body. My swimsuit is a vintage style two piece. Not quite bikini but still shows some belly. I don't care if my belly is nowhere near flat. That swimsuit looks good on me.
YOU GO GIRL! I've been working to achieve this mentality, so I understand how amazing it is to say that!
I can go out and get needed fresh air and exercise, or I can hide inside being self conscious. I like swimming thanks.
After my 3rd kid at 40 I figured- ok, so my body did what it was "supposed" to do 🙄 and you didn't die, good job body 👏
When you reach a certain age (particularly women) you become invisible. As in, literally. You could be on fire and not a soul would cross the street to spit on you if your eyebrows were on fire. This makes it really hard to care what anyone may think about how you look; if people can't see you, they can't judge you, and if they can judge the invisible, they belong to a cult.
Men in their '50s look right through women in their '50s to see the 20-year-olds who are laughing at using them for money in the restroom.
Load More Replies...Didn't do a great job with the hiding, if you had to look sad at the funeral.
I can see the cooking involved lots of arsenic, or something similar
It's not the arsenic itself that gets you, it's having a tolerance to it, and then taking the arsenic out of the equation that gets you... or so I hear.
Load More Replies...True crime fan!! Don’t forget to increase the life insurance policy!! 😂🤣🤣
But, make sure to put a certain amount of time inbetween 'increasing' & 'taking care'. We don't want to raise suspisions 🤗
Load More Replies..."Over time, as the page grew, I realized that there are people much funnier than me,” the creator continued. “So I started curating more and giving them credit. Along the way, I have not only supported creators but have made friends such as Nina Marie (@ninamariedaniele) and Vinny Fasline (@vinnyfasline). Over time, I got an understanding of what my followers like and more importantly, do not like, and selecting memes is now second nature."
When it comes to the kinds of memes the followers of @laughing.chicks particularly enjoy, the creator previously told Bored Panda, “I found relatable memes are the ones that resonate the most. [Universal topics,] such as complaining about work, or bonding with your coworkers tend to do the best." And considering how popular the page has become, gaining over 14k new followers in the past couple of months, the creator is clearly doing something right. Well done on curating those memes!
I tried playing hard to get once, take it from me it doesn’t work 😔 just say what you want outright
My ex stalked and harassed me for over a year (longer than we were actually married). The cops never got to my house in time to catch him violating the restraining order. They were finally able to arrest him after he left death threats against me and my 2 children ON MY VOICE MAIL from the phone at his parents house, which showed up on my CALLER ID. Yeah, him being stupid was just a tiny part of why I kicked him out.
lol I guess everyone is the dog, the cat and the parakeet.
Load More Replies...Should we be assuming that some man/men decided to do something stupid instead of the sensible thing that would work?
I guess so. Keep building that gap between all sexes. I think the British called it Divide and Conquer but the method is as old as mankind itself. Whenever I notice something like this I always wonder what the purpose is. I know my comment suggests I have all the answers but I’m just trying to work it out like the rest of us.

Maybe I am too literal minded or something worse, but my first thought was, why is there a bar in the bathroom?
What? But it says airport bar. Where did bathroom come from??
Load More Replies...We were fortunate enough to get in touch with the creator of @laughing.chicks again for this article, so we first asked if they could share any updates on how the account has been since we last spoke. "We have been posting more relatable memes, and as of today, memes related to threads," they shared.
We were also curious about whether their memes are targeting specifically to women, since many of them seem so relatable for everyone. "We have 85% female following, therefore, we post memes more relatable to women," the creator explained. "However, most of it is just relatable content for all."
I second this. My go to is the Golden Girls. I like watching this when I work at home.
Load More Replies...This is why I watch the same things over and over. I can practically quote the movie without even looking up.
I wish there was a category called 'You watched this already, Lizzie'.
I don't know if it's the fact that I'm rewatching so much, but Netflix does have a "Watch again" category on my account
Load More Replies...That’s why I love talk shows - you don’t really need to look at the tv screen… I play Klondike while listening, lol
Plus hearing people talk, even if it is a planned conversation on a talk show, keeps us social without having to be around others.
Load More Replies...I pause the movie or re-watch the part I missed. That 10 seconds rewind "button" it's a little miracle! :D
Omg so do I! Where are the research pandas?

We haven't had a fresh baby in the family for a long time too. All we have lately are stale ones. Fresh ones are rather hard to find these days.

27h of labor? if I can't squeeze a turd out 5 minutes I'm a little b1t ch. so glad I'm not a woman, or gotten one pregnant. if i saw my wife go through that, I'd dunno what I do. i know she'd be spoiled for at least 5 years.
I feel like this isn't exclusive to babies though... just more widely accepted
27 hours? Yeesh must my mother had been happy that it took only 20 minutes for me
Good for her! I only did 12 hours (started in my sleep). But, I had a friend who never made it into a delivery room with any of her six kids. For the first one she was home alone. Delivered her own baby and waited for the midwife to get there (long before cell phones). Don't remember the exact details for the next two. Of her last three, one was born as she was being wheeled into the labor room, another in the hospital hallway, and one in the hospital elevator. At least she made it into the building. With her, when contractions started, the race was really on. I don't think she was ever in labor longer than two hours.
Load More Replies...FRESH! I love it! My cousin Greg's boyfriend asked me on Thanksgiving, when my daughter was 2 days old, "Did you just have that baby?" I said," Yes, on Tuesday!" He said," Ya, she looks pretty fresh!" Almost peed myself
When it comes to some of the creator's favorite posts that they've recently shared, they told Bored Panda, "There is one I pinned to the profile about Crocs and being mentally unstable. They have nothing to do with each other, but everyone loves to hate on Crocs."
And as for the future of @laughing.chicks, you'll have to stay tuned, pandas. "We are starting to build our threads account and will hopefully release merchandise one day," the creator revealed. So be sure to go follow them right here, or if you're interested in checking out some of their other accounts, be sure to visit @circleofidiots or @Whineforwine_!
Thank you so much for drawing attention to this - I missed it, and it's GLORIOUS

Well I, a woman, happen to like their chicken wings. My mother loves them. So that's kinda extreme in my opinion.
Load More Replies...Interestingly enough, that place would probably also be for men, of a different persuasion.
I feel kind of sheltered. I thought they misspelled six pack.
There was a popular t-shirt for this faux-restaurant when I was in high school, but the place was called C***s with the "o" circling the eye of a rooster (as compared to the double o around the owl's eyes).
I don't know about the rest of Canada, but in my province, we're not allowed to smile on photo. We all look like we're having our mugshots taken.
Yep, no smile, no glasses (so now I get squinty face, and hair down. I look like those death photos from the 1800s. 🤣

When I got my picture taken at Costco for my membership card, I asked the lady who took it if she'd previously worked at the DMV. She didn't get it.
I WISH they let me take a second photo.... They barely let me sit down so I always look like somewhat caught off guard.....
You should have the same faked perplexed facial expression you have when the cop pulls you over.

can you tell my wife that? She tends to think that we did not need 50 bags of combos, but I beg to differ.
Weird. This is the exact sign inside the bathrooms at Eddie World in California. Eddie World is a gas station but also a massive candy store.
I've been to the Eddie World in Beatty, NV. Amazing candy/dried fruit/nut store. They have one in California too?

We all know men and women both have equal potential to be hilarious, but the fact that this account is titled ‘Memes for Women’ got me wondering whether or not men and women have slightly different senses of humor. It doesn’t mean one gender is funnier than the other, but do we tend to enjoy different memes? In her book Humor’s Hidden Power: Weapon, Shield and Psychological Salve, Nichole Force, M.A. notes that research has shown women are more inclined to “take a narrative approach” and share humorous stories, while men “more commonly use one-liners and engage in slapstick.” Force also shares that “while women tend to use puns, self-deprecating humor and wordplay, men are more inclined to use physical and active humor.”
Robin Williams improvised so much on Aladdin (1992) they had enough recorded to make FOUR films.
Here is what the director says: https://ew.com/movies/mrs-doubtfire-director-chris-columbus-nc-17-cut/
The look on his face in that still tells us everything we need to know! May the absolute legend that is Robin Williams be at peace!!
According to my cat, I am the chosen one. Because she's the queen of the world and she chose me to be hers.
That's the thing we want...choice. Women who want no kids and to be successful in their careers aren't saying it's bad to be a housewife and stay at home mom. We just want the ability to choose. If I could choose to do anything though, I would just live a comfy life married with cats :)
Don't know why you've been down voted for giving an honest opinion??? We do want choice, and women should not be judging other women for taking the pathway if their own choosing if there is a choice available

i am capable of much, but want to have the responsibilities of a cat
Research has also shown that men and women tend to adjust their style of humor depending on who their audience is. Force writes that, for example, Northwestern University psychologist Jennifer Hay found in 2000, after taping group conversations, “men were more likely to tease and try to one-up in their use of humor with other men.” When women were present, however, the men teased each other significantly less.
Similarly, research conducted by Martin Lampert of Holy Names University and Susan Ervin-Tripp of the University of California, Berkeley, found that in mixed company, women tend to be less self-deprecating and tease men more than they would tease other women. “The researchers concluded that men lighten up on the teasing with women out of a concern that it might repel them, while women become more assertive around men to counter feelings of vulnerability and to gain more equal footing with them,” Force noted.
I’m commenting to cover up another comment. It’s not too bad, but I would like it to be not the only comment on here.
When y’all do that, though? You know that we all scroll down to see what it was, though! 🤣 Best thing to do is to ignore it completely. Do not give the trolls and idiots attention.

Yup my old man did similar the other night; he pawed at me like "I said bed now!"
My 6 month old puppy does this. If I'm not in bed by eleven he gets really mad and starts harrassing me.
I legit don't know if this was a save or a true call for attention...

Despite how hilarious countless women around the globe are, there is still a prevailing notion among many people that men are just funnier than women. In fact, one 2019 study claims that 63% of men are funnier than the average woman. (Ouch.) To get to the bottom of this, Olga Khazan at The Atlantic wrote a piece analyzing the “plight of the funny female.” One possible explanation for the belief that men are funnier than women is simply that men make more attempts at humor than women. In one experiment that professor Laura Mickes conducted, she gave male and female participants a list of random words and asked them to write paragraphs on them. Interestingly, the men chose to write more humorous paragraphs than the women, unprompted. However, when both parties were asked to use humor, the male and female groups were equally successful at being funny. The women just didn’t use humor as a default from the beginning.
Grocery shopping as a first date is perfect. You'll know really quickly if the other person is an adult or just a child in an adult body.
Been there. Done that. First date was lunch out. Went really well so ended up back at his place (don’t judge!). Quickly discovered he had no toilet roll. Or milk. Or coffee. Ended up taking him to the grocery store to stock up on essentials. Worked out ok and we stayed together for 12 years. But I always had to do the shopping.
Load More Replies...My husband and my first date was to a farmers market. We both realized we liked the same things, had similar tastes, and appreciated the finer points of a small farmers market. Bc we live in Chicago, we also realized neither of us had money to set on friggin fire in order to buy 6 wild mushrooms. So we split the bill for some cheap, delicious tacos and the rest is history.
Yes! We can see how our potential SO's behave doing regular people stuff!
My now hubby and I spent our first almost date grocery shopping. It was Thursday night and I was making dinner Friday night. I needed groceries and he asked to join me. It was awesome.
I used to take first dates with guys to Dave & Busters. We were able to have drinks and play games. We were able to relax, have fun, and act silly. I was able to see if he was too controlling, too competitive, or too stuck up.
This sounds awesome. Let's go to Target for a bit cuz, why not? Then we'll go to the used bookstore for awhile, grab a snack and then to top it all off, head over to PetSmart and pet strangers dogs for time.
If you're with a person you really like, small stuff like errands are often quite fun.
I'm not sure it was the first date but I remember my older sister's boyfriend pushing her up and down the aisles in a grocery cart piling groceries on top of her. So, young enough I as a kid ran into them on a date, while out doing family shopping with parents. We all laughed, she had such long legs, sticking out of the cart. The pair of them are in their fifties now, still married, still silly!

My friend's little brother was able to buy a Nintendo Switch when he joined the business. It was by far, the best business venture I have ever invested in.
Did she learn that from somewhere ir is she just a queen in the making?
“Men are willing to take more risks [in humor], and they also fail more miserably,” Gil Greengross, an evolutionary psychologist with Aberystwyth University in Wales, told The Atlantic. But even when their jokes don’t land, Greengross says “it's worth it [for men to try]. If you fail and you're not funny, you lost maybe a few minutes. But if the person laughs, the benefit can be huge.”
I was literally coming to say the same thing. I have a friend who says the about a Chinese buffet in the town where we went to college. "You go now, fat boy!"
Load More Replies...If I can keep eating I haven't had all I can eat yet. I never made it to a Chinese buffet when I was 20, but I'd often go back 4 or 5 times while having dinner at the dining hall when I was in school. I managed to put on the"freshman five" but until I hit 30 or so it was pretty much impossible to gain weight.
It's written in "broken English", which isn't inherently racist. People who's second language is English, do in fact sometimes talk like this. Usually it's only when you use it in mocking/insulting way does it become racist.

Load More Replies...Men and women also tend to perceive humor differently in relationships. “Although both sexes say they want a sense of humor, in our research women interpreted this as ‘someone who makes me laugh,’ and men wanted ‘someone who laughs at my jokes,’” Rod A. Martin of Western University, Canada, told Scientific American. Apparently, in every context other than platonic relationships, men prefer women who laugh at their jokes over women who make jokes, while women prefer to have partners who are funny.

And this is why I'm a firm believer that feminine products and the chocolate/wine you require at that time should be free
Oh no honey your refund is Perimenopause. Nobody warns you before Menopause you get to have periods, hot flashes and night sweats among other horrible things and it can go on for years, truly heinous.

Please, give her my best. I know how she feels. Apart from the excruciating cramps, there was the nausea, back ache, chills, whole mouth tooth aches, among other atrocities.

They're still friends to this day but she doesn't need money from him anymore
My dream job. Take me to dinner and proceed to tell me all your problems. I'll listen, psychoanalyse you and even throw some solid advice and possible solutions, all for the price of one meal.

I would count so I would be able to backtrack to where the class was after I had read 3 to 5 pages ahead

Load More Replies...Ah, see, my mom was always going on about my weight, so I was sure I was a hippo. Turns out size 6 was actually pretty thin. Doesn't matter, I gave up long ago, sure I was just fat and nothing I did would help.
As a mum, I'm disgusted yours did this to you. My eldest is a larger girl (like me) youngest is a gangly size 6(UK) with boobs. Both are beautiful and while completely different in body type, neither receives any negativity from us. The only food/ body related conversations we have are to make sure everyone buys clothes that look nice, and they feel comfortable in.....and to make sure everyone eats lots of fresh fruit, veg and good proteins. That's it. Health and happiness are the only things you should want for your children x
Load More Replies...I was looking through some pictures and thinking the same thing. Youth is wasted on the young 😞
It's true. I've spent my entire life feeling unattractive, but now at 40, I'm looking back at photos from 10 - 20 years ago and realizing I had no reason to feel that way. Not sure how to break that curse.
Also thought I was fat. I'm 5'9, and weighed 135 pounds. Oh, what I wouldn't give...
Ditto, I'm also 5'9 and weigh 138 lbs. and looking back at my high school pictures where I weighed even less, thinking to myself "why did you think you were so fat"??? Realizing I was a PYT wish I recognized that back then

I live in the right lane because I’m a timid driver. I even hate having to pass other cars.
Or possibly "how ya doin', sorry you can't get through, but if you leave your name and you number, then I'll get back to you!"........depends on what generation you're from basically!
Same here, unless I’m in my car alone, then I’ll sing at a regular volume

Every time I hear that track, I'm back on that train, gazing out of the window at the snow covered fields, wanting to see my Dad and dreading seeing him at the same time. Sorry. I just needed to offload. Ignore this.

The fact that this is so true is so sad. People be like why don’t you date? Do you have any idea how many women go out for dates and never come home?!?
When I was online dating & he wanted to pick me up, that was a HUGE red flag. Like, yeah right, I'm going to give my address to some random stranger I haven't even physically met yet. Delete.
OK, so WHAT is wrong with him picking you up in his car? This kind of consideration went out with the doorman years ago, so I would hold onto him as he seems like a great catch!
Make him sit at the opposite end of the bar, yell questions, then allow him to get closer for each right answer. Sheesh...
Chivalry isn't making someone rely on you to not be trapped away from home, chivalry is acting with manners you have your s**t twisted.

Drunk me is a helpful little elf who cleans things and puts things away and deals with small repetitive tasks that need doing because "well I don't have the attention span right now to do anything more complicated so let's get this out of the way, shall we?"
I’m tired of sober me creating awkward situations that I’ll need to become drunk me to deal with
Just be careful about taking too much. I took too much. NSAIDs and I had an ulcer and woke up in a pool of my blood almost dead.

Load More Replies...Remember to use antiacids with ibuprofen and switch it up to paracetamol to give your stomach and kidneys a rest from time to time. And with paracetamol, don't go over the dose limits and don't ever drink alcohol with them, because that's how you destroy your liver. And switch paracetamol to ibuprofen from time to time.
Oh, I was so sad when the gastroenterologist said ibuprofen was off limits. Migraines and menstrual cramps that make me wish I was dead, but my guts don't work properly either so no nsaids!
Lord yes. My cramps were so bad before ibuprofen -- severe waves of pain from navel to knees -- I was convinced I was dying 3 days out of the month.

A friend of mine works clothing retail and she gets a uniform allowance so at work she is always wearing the current stock. Her company don't care what she gets up to on social media as long as she doesn't wear anything from the last five years uniform.

Not sure why TheNword…Nubian thinks feeling empathy for another human being is mental illness. I bawled my eyes out when I first learned about some of the atrocities of the holocaust/WW2, even though I’ve never met a survivor.

How can gushers be so disgusting but still somehow taste good??
gushers are an entire food group and I’ve been eating them since the 90s
Fun fact: Some inventor DID make water-filled 'gushers' because dementia patients have trouble consuming enough fluids to be healthy, but will eagerly consume brightly-coloured candy-looking gel-sacs full of fluids. Cannot wait until it's mass-produced.
they're gummy candy filled with fruit juice goop https://media.officedepot.com/images/f_auto,q_auto,e_sharpen,h_450/products/3927471/3927471_o06_fruit_gushers_fruit_flavored_snacks/3927471

My ex-husband used to tell me that I was either the smartest dumb person he had ever met, or the dumbest smart person he had ever met. Can't say that he was wrong.
Yes, used to work at a business where the owner's son was an excellent student. Always had straight A's and was very knowledgeable. Extremely book smart. But the kid worked the cash register one day and literally could not figure out how much change somebody got back form a $20 bill. If the register had not told him, I think he still would be standing there trying to figure it out.
Or, whatever bad thing happens, I am lucky enough to resolve it easily/without receiving permanent damage.

There's this bored-panda-ish website that has funny memes interspersed with pics of girls holding fish, and as a failed clinical psychologist, I think there are things to know and avoid about the demographic for that site
Because everything we guys do has the purpose of conquering women /s
Just a thought. Men like to do men things . Without thinking about women. Women like to do women things. Without thinking about men. What would it imply if it was a woman holding a fish? Please , everyone, stop projecting sex onto every situation. The LGBTQ community would certainly have an easier time of it.

When I heard they started an investigation because somebody put a ball bearing on train tracks a few years ago, I couldn't help but laugh ... we were far from the worst. The worst I have seen regarding trains is someone who put a stolen bicycle on train tracks to have it run over, so it happened, and NOTHING at all followed, no investigation, not even any visible attempt to slow down or so. Having seen isn't equal to being able to do anything against it - he was a solid 3 years older, a lot when you're like 12 and plan to buy weed from that very person. Haven't seen him in years, more like decades, but after all, he wasn't of the evil type, but of the stupid, for sure...

Try german Autobahn. Seriously, you drive past a police car at 300 km/h, if physics and wallet allow, and they won't care. If there's no limit, there's no limit. End of. For weekly commuters, a speed limit at least on the one-digit-Autobahn routes would cost ... many hours of lifetime. Can't imagine door-to-door, Berlin-Hannover, 284 km, in exactly 100 minutes in any other country (partly because both cities and the shortest and fastest road between them are in germany) without even braking a single law a single time. Here, this is possible. Done that. A care going about 230...240 km/h is required, and heavy feet aren't wrong either. Don't try on mondays or fridays.
You would both leave your houses and meet up halfway.
