63 Unhinged Stories And Ways Women Decentered Men And Put Them In Their Place

"It's gay to go to a woman singer/band's concert (even though you find women attractive) but totally straight to go to a hardcore show and take off your shirt and run around touching other dudes' bodies who have long hair or get hype for dude's playing music". /s

Ron White's bit about his brother watching p**n comes to mind. It's hilarious.

I once asked a really rude dude who kept annoying me if he was on his period. He went beet red and stomped away. Doesn't feel so great if the roles are reversed huh

"Aww, what's the matter? Is it that time of the month again? Would you like a box of chocolates?"

This is hilarious. The guys who don't find it so are outing themselves as these types of men.

I don't care if I get downvoted for this or not, but I don't think there's anything wrong with asking someone to please calm down, even if they're extremely angry. I don't know why this has become an issue lately. It actually does work, depending on the person and the situation. By "gently" asking someone to calm down, you could be potentially saving their life, or someone else's.

"I've got more T than you right now, buddy."

Oh high five ❤️❤️❤️

I'm doing this with the mini dino (she's 3). I just assume everything is female. 'That's a cool dinosaur drawing, I love her colors!'. Books with male protagonists are female instead when I read them to her. Talking about going to a doctor, tax person whatever - going to assume it's a woman. If we find out one of them really is a man... yeah honey, men can be doctors, too, you know.

I love this. Or, if you want to watch people on Bored Panda lose their minds, refer to everyone as "they." Ask me how I know. 😆

About time

One of the little things I like about David Weber's "Honor Harrington" series of novels is that, whenever a character is talking about someone whose gender they don't know, he has them use the same pronouns as the character. For example, a woman would say, "That space ship is sure on an unusual course, I wonder what the Captain thinks she's up to?" It's a nice little jab at the way most English writers default to he/him, unless they know for sure they're talking about a woman, and it's subtle enough that I bet there are people who have read several of these books and never noticed.

Yes! This is quite empowering for many situations 😊

It's a technique from good writing. You never think or feel. You just state facts.

LOL.

"No, I don't want to see any child pr0n! Stop bothering me!"

Then he will go after someone else, hands outstretched and moaning "chaaaange, chaaaange"

Recently saw (might have been on BP) T-shirts that said "Scientist" and "Male Scientist" or some such. Brilliant.

Nice.

Basketball is basketball. Why not just that?

NICE. Shut that s**t down fast. Hopefully he will think twice about pulling that again, but I think we all know better.

Awesome daughter and superb employer for not enabling such c**p ❤️👍❤️

I had to condition myself not to do that. I grew up with 4 siblings and we all inherited my father's loud voice. So there was a lot of talking over each other growing up. It's a bad habit und hard to break.

"I'm sorry the end of my sentence collided with the start of yours."

Oh I love this too ❤️❤️❤️❤️

I hated that question. But I find it's asked towards women, too. Society seems unable to handle that there's still one working parent in the household in today's economy. It's like they're jealous and don't believe anyone else should have that luxury.

Sorry, we honestly thought this would have changed by now.

This one is less cool, unless she's throwing a big wink in when she says it.

Crazy concept: you can even relax on the couch while your husband is running around.

How is it not man centered to drop what you're doing and change speed any time your husband changes activity? Anyway it sounds like husband has figured out how to get her to stop being frantic and annoying by watching TV/reading, so good on him.

I call whoever is listed as number one on enrolment list (childcare) because that is usually who filled out the form and is the one who wants to be called first. This is mostly the mum, but not always. Actually, I also ask the kid who is meant to be picking them up that day, because it's usually them that will be more available.

Always. Except for doctors office, all other places where my child goes to have dad's number

I always put my husband's phone number first.

French here. My official name is my birth name. I wanted to take my husband's name as "usual name", but for the administration I is "birth name, married spouse name" (that's what's on my papers). My son has my husband's name so I'm using the same name to make things easier at school or whatever. I didn't lose my name by marrying my man. I just decided to use his when I wanted. No problem with that. If we divorce, I won't use his name anymore, so what?

Also keep at least one separate account. Always.

I must admit, my ex took my last name. It is still his last name. My dad thought it was funny. Being in the military at the time, updating my paperwork was a breeze since I didn't change my name.
