Girl power is amazing! There’s nothing that women can’t accomplish when they band together to build each other up, and the bond of sisterhood can be incredibly powerful. But unfortunately, thanks to pesky internalized misogyny, some women out there need a little reminder that we should all be on the same team.

Below, you’ll find some of the cringiest posts from the Not Like The Other Girls subreddit. This group calls out "pick me girls" who have decided to put other women down in an attempt to prove how unique and special they are. Enjoy scrolling through these photos that might give you secondhand embarrassment, and be sure to upvote the ones that remind you to support other women!

“She’s not like other girls!” We’re all familiar with this phrase that became an internet phenomenon in the early 2010s. Girls who love eating pizza, who drink beer but never gain weight, girls who look like models without wearing makeup and girls who are just “one of the boys” because women never want to be friends with them.

There’s nothing inherently wrong with being unique, and we all have special quirks that will make us stand out. But the idea of claiming that you’re “not like other girls” doesn’t just celebrate one person’s uniqueness, it also implies that all other women are a monolith. And it perpetuates the idea that interesting women who may not like stereotypically feminine things are rare.

Worst I Have Ever Seen

Worst I Have Ever Seen

She preaches shes better than women getting degrees and not having children because by being a stay at home mom on her farm with her 4 kids and pregnant at 23 years old is "going against the grain" as if thats not what women were forced into for thousands of years because of the patriarchy and societal expectations of women .. they're not vaccinated and "unschooled" (?) and now shes into "free birthing" which is an extremely dangerous way to give birth (no check ups, no prenatal care, no birthing guide, no meds, no nothing..) she is seriously psychologically f*cked up for thinking this is the best way to care for your family. And as a woman who's getting her masters and doesn't want kids, f*ck you I am better than you. Read a f*cking book.

Obviously, women didn't like being slaves trapped in the house. If you want to play frontier-mom, go for it. But women are just like men, we all have different talents and skills. I can rebuild an engine and code. I prefer to be a member of the 21st century not the 6th.

There's a reason a man's body is designed to impregnate a woman but not to carry a pregnancy. It's because his intended purpose is to be used as breeding stock and then get the hell out of her life. (in case it's necessary, disclaimer, this is sarcasm.)

The Not Like The Other Girls subreddit has been around for years now, and it has never had a shortage of content. The community has 944k members, and it’s one of the largest subreddits on the platform. But just like everything else, it has changed a bit over time. A few years ago, the posts may have been more focused on girls who want everyone to know that they don’t wear makeup, don’t like “girly” things and don’t ever plan on getting married.  

Today, however, there seems to be an influx of women posting online about how they’re not like other girls because they’re not feminists. Trad wives are becoming increasingly popular online, and today, lots of “pick me” girls seem to be conservative, anti-abortion and really into drinking raw milk for some reason.

Regardless of what makes a woman believe that she’s not like the rest of us, it’s sad to see girls who want to separate themselves from other women. The women that I know are strong, brilliant, brave, creative, intelligent, hilarious and fascinating. I would love to be like them! But sadly, many of us have been taught from a young age that we should be in competition with other women and should compare ourselves to other girls, so unless we unlearn that toxic idea, it can be easy to fall into a pattern of trying to prove that we’re better than other women.

Recently, the “not like other girls” women have also been labeled “pick me girls.” But they’re essentially the same archetype, women who go out of their way to separate themselves from other girls and gain male approval. But according to life coach Bayu Prihandito, we should approach this topic with empathy.

ADVERTISEMENT

“People, especially young women as they continue to grow up, have to navigate a society filled with mixed messages about their worth, identity, and the roles they are expected to play,” Prihandito told CNN. “And you have social media, the usual suspect, amplifying these messages and creating an environment where external validation is not just sought after but often seems necessary.”

If you play it on something with a screen, it's a video game. Computer chess is a video game. Computer solitaire is a video game. Those educational games I played as a kid were video games. Don't you dare tell me I'm not a gamer because I play Animal Crossing and enjoy the themes of friendship and community. Stop gatekeeping, mind your own business, and get a life.

I do a lot of work with seniors & folks with traumatic brain injuries. We focus on exercising cognitive awareness & enhancing neuroplasticity via gaming. 1/3 of them are finishing up BG3, another 1/3 are finishing or new gaming Elden before June, the remaining 1/3 are all over the board playing everything from mobile tap games to Fortnite to platformers, dungeons & VR. Many had never played a video game until they joined our group. Many more hadn’t played since Atari 2600. They’re all very proud of being gamers, but they’re so nonassuming. There are no qualifiers of what it means to be a gamer other than they, indeed, play video games.

Pokemon and Mario are some of the most recognizable gaming franchises out there, so stfu OP. They are part of the 90s kid gaming starter pack. (I still have the OG Pokemon games for the Gameboy I had when I was 10.) And the Ninetendo 64 was fun! It had 007, Mario, Perfect Dark, and Resident Evil 2. (N64 RE2 was great because it had additional files you could collect which provided more backstory and a randomizer mode, so the items were a surprise, but in a fun way.) I guess this is an old post since they keep mentioning PS4. Get a PS5 and install the extended storage OP so you can finally be a real gamer. And you haven't even play nearly 600 hours of Horizon Forbidden West like me? Loser. BTW your dad is my new sugar daddy and is taking me to Greece and is going to kick you out of your basement. (I hope that was clear that was sarcasm. Except I really did play that much Horizon Forbidden West.)

In German, if I ride a horse, I am a rider. When I drive a car, I am a driver. The verb denotes “what I am.” So when I play a game, I'm a player, not a gamer. However... Google Translate tells me in English it's called gamer. So it depends on your native language whether you are a "gamer" or a "gamer" 😉

Internalized misogyny is a powerful and insidious thing that women need to be aware of to be able to break. Society tells us that women are one-dimensional beings who should love the color pink, taking care of the home, raising children and being submissive. And while there’s absolutely nothing wrong with any of those things if you genuinely want and enjoy them, the problem arises when girls are told that if they’re not like that, they must be super special and unique and quirky.

It’s not these women’s fault that they’ve been sold the idea that most girls fit into a cookie-cutter mold. They did not come up with this idea themselves. However, in this day and age, we should not be perpetuating the belief that some women are better than others or that being “unique” makes you more valuable or attractive. Sadly, the media has done a great job at convincing men and women that girls who eat pizza or drink beer or actually like to spend all day in the kitchen are incredibly rare.

There is literally nothing that makes me hotter than women who endorse allowing your partner/spouse to get a total free pass from parenting, helping around the house, or having to do anything but relax because they bring home a paycheck.

Especially because so many women get stuck in sh*tty abusive relationships (physically, emotionally, financially, etc) and are made to think it’s the “norm” or “natural order.”

The manic pixie dream girl is a prime example of a “not like the other girls” woman that often appears in TV shows and films. This could be Alaska in Looking for Alaska, Ramona Flowers in Scott Pilgrim v. The World, Clementine in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Summer in 500 Days of Summer and countless other female characters. This archetype is often portrayed through the male gaze and only there to enhance the male protagonist’s life or story. They usually don’t have much of a plot or development of their own and often leave him once they’ve served their purpose.

If you can overhear people talk about The Bachelor while listening to a book about physics, you are not listening to a book about physics really well. Invest in a better pair of headphones.

Overall, the world should be much kinder to women. It seems like we can never win, whether we love Taylor Swift and Stanley cups or sports and metal music. Someone will always be judging us for our choices, so the least we can do is not judge each other and instead lift one another up. Women are awesome, regardless of what career path they choose and what they order at a restaurant! And we’re even more powerful when we work together.

She is drop dead gorgeous and I agree that there are some awful wedding dresses out there but she should have stopped after the 4th screenshot. It's not her place to attack others choices, just to lift up her own choice.

We hope these photos aren’t making you too uncomfortable, pandas. We know how cringey they can be, and we can only hope that some of them are satire. But if they’re sincere, we hope that these women will realize how much better life can be when they stop comparing themselves to other women. Keep upvoting the pics you find particularly painful, and then if you’re interested in seeing even more “pick me” girls, check out this Bored Panda article next!

For those who don't know, the "extra stitch" is also called the "husband stitch" and means the vagina will possibly feel tighter when it heals. Editing to add: It doesn't work (but was routinely offered in some places) and any dude thinking about his sex life when there's a brand new baby needs to sit down.

It's not easy, actually. I think a lot of people think it's a calmer, more relaxed life but if you have large livestock sick in the night, or a flood or fire, or any of 1000 things that can go wrong and cause physical and financial stress, you know about it. Not saying it's not a valid way to live, but people need to go into it with open eyes, not pinterest dream boards.

I feel bad for girls who post this kind of stuff. It’s like they’ve never had a good friendship with other girls/women. My (female) besties and I used to do something similar to this but it was with a huge taco spread and video games. Sometimes we did each other’s hair and nails too while taking turns at Mario Kart 🤷‍♀️
