50 Pointlessly Gendered Examples That Show Society Has Gone Too Far With It (New Pics)
Society in the West has made significant improvements in advancing gender equality over the last century. While men and women naturally have their differences, it's become quite normal for both genders to share responsibilities such as work, cleaning, cooking, driving, and even furniture assembly. However, there are instances where we still come across products targeted explicitly towards either men or women. Like c'mon, separate gift cards based on gender?
The subreddit r/pointlesslygendered is full of examples showing unnecessary gender-based distinctions, often seen in absurdly labeled products meant for him or her. Come along as we explore the world of unnecessary gender labeling, sparking discussions and raising eyebrows in the process.

A Guide To Gift Giving
I have always thought that all toys are for everyone but not in this way 😂
indeed! even though there are tendencies in preferences such as girls playing with dolls and boys being into toy cars each kid is different. let children be children ^^
Triggered memoried of, years of boring dumb plushies instead of Legos 😭😭😭
Yes! I always played with cars and garbage truck (which was my favourite) as a child, and I grew up right - I think. :D
THIS! I loved when one certain girl would join me in building stuff from construction toy systems - Fischertechnik, in that case -, as she had cool ideas and solutions. I hated about 5 or 6 boys joining, because they were dumb. I also hated them building stuff seperate from me, as they always would steal my pieces and generally waste them. One boy, I hated in particular, because he always build some large flat thing, some large long thing, put together, a sunscreen, hooray. Always the same stupid sunscreen. Dumbass, he. But, all the other girls refused to even try, neither she nor me offering to join us, because "That is for boys.". Don't know who told them that, but it wasn't me, or the school, or the teacher (preschool - we had a cool teacher there).
Yes my little cousin when he was real little liked playing with his sister's barbies and i as a little kid used to always be outside getting muddy
The first tantrum I ever remember throwing, in K-Mart. My mom wanted me to get Barbies and I wanted Transformers. Barbie didn't DO anything, Barbie was boring. Transformers transformed! It didn't help that I had latched onto a $60 jet, Jetfire. I left sniveling and empty handed. Just because a kid likes something that is labeled for the opposite gender doesn't mean they need medical attention. We need to stop labeling anything for "boys" or "girls." That is a marketing tactic not something decided by or reproductive capabilities.
Teachers In Spain Protest The Gendering And Sexualization Of Clothing
Male teachers in spain are wearing skirts to work to protest homophobic harassment in schools.
The movement -- called #LaRopaNo TieneGenero, or "clothes have no gender" -- started when a student was expelled and sent to a psychologist for wearing a skirt to school.
As a guy who was worn tights, the first dude is particularly brave.... leg hairs get caught EVERYWHERE and poke through the tights!
Load More Replies...There were some school kids in the UK who protested gendered "summer" uniforms that allowed girls to wear skirts in summer, but didn't allow boys to wear shorts. They all rocked-up to school wearing skirts to prove the pointlessness of gendering school uniforms. Absolute legends.
I wore a skirt briefly back in younger days. It wasn’t a gender issue at all. I wore a lot of slightly weird stuff in the late ‘90s hanging out with a weird mixture of punks and people in the industrial music scene in NYC. Heck I wore leather, spikes, fishnet shirts, eye liner, Mohawk, and painted my nails too sometimes. Nothing to do with questioning my gender or sexual orientation. Perhaps people thought I did but no one ever said anything. It was NYC and Goth and Punk was a relatively normal thing, especially St Marks Place. I just I liked weird stuff. Now, I’m a pretty boring strait-laced guy. Part of getting older and wiser. (Also I realized thankfully, I can still look good and feel good with “normal” clothes that doesn’t define me, pigeonhole me, or close off social opportunities.) I can’t say I regret it as I’m very happy now but I know my fashion choices hurt me in my first career and my ability to meet and make friends with people I might have otherwise been able to.
My best friend got expelled for wearing dresses to school in the 1990s. I hate that this is still happening, but I love that the teachers are standing up for their students now.
In general, men and women lead very similar lives today. We grow up together, attend the same schools, and have the same jobs. Aside from dating and having children, for some of us, gender isn't a big deal in our daily lives. In developed countries, we increasingly focus on personality over gender. But these products push back against this idea. They keep reminding us that gender matters, even though it rarely does in reality.
She's Told The Truth
Actually, male and final reindeer both have antlers, but lose them at different times of the year. Males before winter and females after spring. Technically all Santa's reindeer are female.
Typically, only male deer grow antlers. Female deer have been documented to grow antlers when experiencing issues with regulation of the hormone testosterone, which happens very rarely. Caribou are the only deer in which females regularly grow antlers.
For Science!
I would use a cat and a dog. Not for gendering, but cat lovers on one side and dog lovers on the other. Bonus.. there will be a live cat and a live dog in each respective bathroom.
But I'll pee myself, trying to decide which one to pet first! You need a third bathroom with both! One with neither, too, for people with severe allergies.

Some public schools in Virginia tried letting kids use which bathroom they felt "comfortable" in. The only girls who did not feel comfortable were the ones that were raped by a boy who used the girls' room. Look up "Loudon County". Shouldn'tguys and girls feel safe while using the restroom?
Then stand outside and wait for the screams of fear and outrage when people end up in the wrong loo together.
In my office building today I used the women's restroom and while washing my hands found out a person who had been born male but I don't think was identifying male anymore (I don't know how to explain that correctly) had been using the stall next to me. I was very angry but it was because the person was on a phone call the whole time we were using the facilities. So irritating.
Kindness Is For Women... Feel Kind Of Bad For Him Though
This is sweet. It's sad tho that he feels he can't give compliments to people because of how he looks.
I’d suggest that it’s more than what he feels, but an actuality. Something he’s experienced repeatedly and is constantly reinforced. Not really about feeling.

There are two secrets to giving compliments. First, compliment their choices, not something they have no control over. "I love how you use your hair to highlight your face" is good while "I think wavy hair is sexy" is bad. Second, intend the compliment to improve their day and not yours. They may hate their wavy hair and owe you nothing for pointing it out. If you expect any validation or other emotional response, its no longer a compliment, its a power play. You can compliment anyone's hair in the supermarket if you immediately go back to bagging groceries without waiting for a reply. Its obvious you just like their hair and there's no other emotional baggage involved.
I didn’t know compliments were a no no. I always felt compliments on something a person achieved or cool clothing like “nice jacket”, “good job on your last project” or “cool earrings” or something else unique.
Labeling products needlessly by gender isn't just about separating us into groups – it's also about dictating the roles associated with those groups. Each of these products becomes a way to reinforce these ideas.
More "Batman Is For Boys" Nonsense, But With A Happy Ending

I don't know why you were downvoted. that party seems aweseome!
Load More Replies...Last year for my birthday, my boyfriend did a superhero themed everything for me after seeing how all of my childhood parties were pink, puppies, etc. while my brothers got superheroes. It was amazing to get Thor cupcakes and Hulk napkins, etc.
I was crazy for Batman as a little girl, and later Superman. I had several years where my birthday was either Batman, Superman, or superhero themed. The same parents who threw me these superhero parties were the same parents swho were mortified when I let my son have a Dora the Explorer themed party two years in a row. I had Barbie sized Batman and Robin action figures and the Batmibile. They flipped because my son had a Dora doll and doll house.
Sadly, it's still much more socially accepted for a girl to like something targeted to boys than it is for a boy to like something considered 'feminine.' Because we still haven't actually gotten away from the idea that masculinity is superior.
Load More Replies...I would do this for my girlfriend, if I had one. If she wants a Batman themed birthday party, you better believe she's getting one. If she wants a Barbie themed birthday, she gets that. Whatever birthday party will make her happy, I'll do my best to arrange.
Sounds About Right
We all should open doors for others, especially if they have their hands full or are having a hard time moving about.
I never understood girls who want guys to open doors for them all the time. Are those girls allergic to door handles?

Indeed it is - saying this as someone whose grandma was a doctor, and a very respected one at that.
I had a female doctor, she was the best but retired early, such a nice person!!
Load More Replies...Omg. Subordination due to gender is starting pretty young! If USA I wager it wasn’t one of the progressive states. I could start guessing easily…..
There's nothing sadder than an academic study conducted quite recently (I forget the institution) which found that even at the early age of about 5, when asked to draw a picture of a doctor and a nurse, almost ALL kids- like 90 percent (of both genders) will draw a male doctor and a female nurse.
I might be missing some idea, but I think it's completely ok for the girl to be a nurse and the boy to be a doctor. Sure, girls can be doctors, boys can be nurses, and that is COMPLETELY fine too. But the other way around isn't bad either. So I don't think it is sexist unless someones specifically says "boys can ONLY be doctors and girls can ONLY be nurses." Maybe the girl actually wanted to be a nurse and the boy actually wanted to be a doctor.
Indeed it is - saying this as a nurse who shaves his face every morning before work.
As a male children's nurse who's had to correct many parents that I'm not a doctor, it's things like this that makes people surprised that I'm a nurse
It's ridiculous how sexist things still are in the medical field, even if it's not always so obvious. :/
At times, the male and female versions of a product don't have the same price tag. In such cases, the female's version tends to be the pricier option. If women aren't vigilant or if having the "correct" product is important to them, they end up spending more money. Studies by the state of California, the University of Central Florida, and Consumer Reports all find that women pay more. "In California, women spent the equivalent of $2,044 more a year," (This study was done in 1996. The sum then was $1048; the sum would be $2,044, adjusted for inflation in 2023).
No Teenagers Are Easy
It's funny, there is an episode of Malcolm in the Middle, where the mother dreams of her awful boys being all girls because then her life would be easier. Suffice to say that fantasy turns out to be very wrong. lol
It's almost as if all teenagers are emotional balls of messed up hormones

Anyone who thinks teen years are easier with boys should have 5 of them in their teens at the same time as I did.

Ah Yes, Because Women Don't Exist In The U.s
I'll tell you what grinds my gears: the need for the US to always use the words "national team" at every opportunity. I even saw it at the world cup where US news sources would write "France vs US Women's National Team". Of COURSE it's the national team. Do you think we all expected you to send out some regional team? And you don't need to tell us it's the women's team. It was the women's world cup. Every other nation just puts the name of the nation. The US has to put "National Team" on everything.
And as of now Sweden is placed as #1 football team in the the world by FIFA (eventhough we "only" got bronze). First time for Sweden ever! The guys got close in the 90's but the ladies are obviously footballing better!

In the US, we have Soccer and Men's Soccer. That is how we make the distinction between the two teams.
Ah Yes The Classic "Words Dont Hurt Men" Stereotype
If words don't hurt men (or you) why do the words 'toxic masculinity' need to be addressed by you?
Well....probably because BEHAVOIR can be toxic, and it's not limited to one gender or the other. As we've seen over the past handful of years, we've moved away from differentiating between behavior that is toxic, and treating masculinity of any kind as toxic.
Load More Replies...If, by legend, you mean "pathetic clown", then I agree with you.

Men's Beach-Handball Teams Uniform vs. The Women's Uniform
Okay, put the men in speedos. If you want to sexualize a sport, do it equally.
Would women really want to see guys meat and two vege flopping round in speedos while doing volleyball? I could imagine them wanting to see the guys shirtless, or seeing some nice arses, but many ladies seem to find the family jewels pretty funny if not ugly to look at.
Load More Replies...For a long time there was an international rule how "short" the women's pants had to be in beach volleyball. Seriously, they were not allowed to wear anything longer than bikini bottoms. It was a rule violation.
It was beach handball, that is not an Olympic sport, and the rules were amended in 2021 to allow shorts. Current beach volleyball rules [FIVB Olympic rules, appendix 1-10] states only that 1) men must wear tank top and shorts 2) women must wear either of these, *as they choose*: top + briefs; one piece; half sleeve top + knee length pants; no sleeve top + shorts (same as men's); Long sleeve top + long pants (cold climate or religious reasons); Long sleeve top + briefs. The only other relevant rule is that "Athletes on the same team must wear identical uniforms (style, fabric and colour)."; the rest is just a bunch of technicalities on fabric, logo positioning and design guidelines etc
Load More Replies...this is kinda funny im a female and captin of the basketball and scoccer teams and the uniforms are sexist too so ima do this lol
Load More Replies...Well... Sure! How can you sexualize the women if they're not wearing as little as possible?
What if ... what if the requirements would, more or less, allow any clothing that doesn't pose a danger to anyone? And leave the choice to those who'd wear them?
Ok, Jrog ... fine so far ... but, the point remaining is, why must the entire team wear ONE option? Who, then, gets to choose which? Majority? Least revealing? Cheapest? Captain's choice? A poll? I think they're identifiable enough if they, across the team, wear different stuff. Whoever wants to wear a bikini - sure, wear that! Whoever wants to wear a longsleeve, longleg onepiece - sure, wear that! The colours and logos do the trick ... if not, they're kinda pointless...

To be fair, guys know just how bad guys can be so I think some get on high alert when they become a dad to a girl. Not saying it's right, just a perspective.
Or becoming dads of boys give the the right example how to treat women. I think it starts there and not protecting girls for bad guys who didn’t learn respect and behave.

As a mother of a boy plus I work in a field of all men. I have given this speech many times when the guys say they are threatening to boys who come to take out their daughters. I say anyone ever did that to my son I'll be at your door, you as a man are threatening a child who used all his courage to ask your daughter out. You were that child at one time in your life put yourself in their shoes. How about teach your daughter to take care of herself & have faith in her ability to make good decisions. On more than one occasion they have said I guess I never thought of it that way.
Dads r ALWAYS (generalization, I know) so proud when they son scores the girls, and the same dad can b sitting next to their daughter praising their son for it, while basically shaming their sister for talking to boys (many girls experiences, generalizations, I know)

There’s A Price Difference But I Didn’t Expect It To Be That Big
My son has long hair and detangling is a real battle. His brush is lilac. Funnily enough he does not care about the colour. Only that we get the brushing done as quickly as possible
You could try a good leave-in conditioner; mine got a lot easier to detangle after I found a leave-in product I liked that dealt with the frizz and split ends.
Load More Replies...The whole concept of a girl brush and boy brush is stupid, but the boy brush is marked down. You see how the price doesn't end in 99c? That's how you know the price has been marked down, for whatever reason
My brother has shoulder length wavy hair and he never lets a brush anywhere near it. It's so tangled

Load More Replies...Products for women often cost more than those for men because of how companies market and design them. This happens due to historical practices, marketing strategies, and how society sees things. When products are made to target women specifically and look different, they seem more valuable and end up being priced higher. People also think of women's stuff as fancier, which adds to the cost. Sometimes, old trends and what people expect also make women's products cost more to make. And when many people want something, companies might raise the price. All these things together make products for women more expensive.

Pointlessly Gendered Product That We Can’t Believe Exist
We pop to a coffee shop located across the way from a huge toy store and even from that distance you can see the aisle of pink for the girls toys. :(
This may be more for categorization than gender. Our little family owned toy shop categorizes toys by traditional type of play, which means there’s definitely a color divide. The signs suggest typical type of play and is specifically genderless. It’s a process that’s slow, but it is changing. Pink aisle means pink toys. They’re pink because of their functionality or blue for the same. Sucks it’s that way but WE don’t have to accept it gender-based. I DO went a blue Barbie Malibu Dream Home for my kid, but I also want a pink camo GI Joe for me.
Load More Replies...I’m female and as a kid I loved playing with toy vehicles. A toy I really wanted for the longest time was a remote controlled car. They were somewhat expensive and money was quite tight so my parents couldn’t really afford to let me have one. When I was around 11-12 years old my parents finally let me buy one. It was a somewhat fancy shop and I was allowed to choose a mid-range one. I still remember the judgement I received from the store workers (who were supposed to help me by finding a car for the price range I had and testing if it’s properly working with batteries). 10-12 years later I still have that remote controlled car, working as if it’s still brand new.
Good for her! Give her ALL the toys dammit! One of my friends had 2 daughters and raised them on all things LOTR, monsters and horror movies, video games, and more. We thought nothing of it.
I still remember how uncomfortable I'd feel going up to the counter at McDonald's when I was a kid to all for a "boy toy" instead of what they assumed I'd want. It was embarrassing, like saying I wasn't really a girl. But then I also felt embarrassed for wanting that easy bake oven, too. Gender is confusing enough without making a kid's every choice be about it.
that's not a "not impressed" look; that's a "I'm about to burn this motherf*&ing store the ground, [unalive] the toy department manager and pi$$ on his grave" look
Over time, progress has been made towards achieving gender equality globally. Women have gained increased representation in politics, more economic chances, and improved healthcare in numerous parts of the world. Nonetheless, the World Economic Forum (WEF) predicts it will take another century before complete gender equality is achieved. There are some factors that contribute to this persistent gender gap.

In case you didn't know: BMW made engines for the Luftwaffe (their logo is a white propeller against a blue sky), Porsche made tanks (Ferdinand begged Hitler to let him develop a prototype), Volkswagen was created by Porsche at the personal request of Hitler to make an affordable family car, and Hitler's personal vehicle was a Mercedes (as well as most of the high ranking Nazi officers). These car companies built their empires on fortunes stolen from Jews fleeing the country or imprisoned by the Gestapo. These companies weren't reluctant participants, they were enthusiastic supporters.
BMWs are for people who rather not drive and enjoy paying way too much to keep it moving long enough to get it between repair shop and repair shop. I swear whoever owns BMW knows this and loves selling cars that barely run. Toyota is the top, Mercedes is second. Then the rest.
I was told many years ago that BMW stands for Big Money Wasted (amongst other slurs).

But most of the time we pee while we poo, it's much harder to control. Also if you have 3 urinals and 3 stalls men get 6 usable toilets but we get 3. Plus I don't think most women want to see men exposed, and most men probably don't want to be exposed. I think we need to stick with either gendered toilets or just stalls if you're going gender neutral.
Definitely stalls all around. But I assumed OP was going by smell.

We don`t really mind. In most restrooms there are little separations walls installed between them

Please don't. I can't even imagine the smell in a poop-only toilet. Dear god, think of the children.
The ONLY I dislike all gender bathrooms is that men can’t seem to aim well and there is p**s all other the floor and seats. I’ve never stepped in pee puddles in ladies only. But I also want people to use the bathroom that makes them comfortable so I’ll deal with the pee.

One of them is employment equality. Only 6 countries treat women and men equally in terms of work rights (Belgium, Denmark, France, Latvia, Luxembourg and Sweden). Most economies give women only 3/4 of the rights that men have. When employment is more equal, it can also help improve gender equality in other areas.
Its More Expensive Bc It's Pink (Yes, Its The Same Description, I Checked)
I explained to my daughters that in this house we don't pay the pink tax. Instead we buy the "men's" razors because they do the same thing and are cheaper. When I showed them they said hell yeah let's buy the cheaper ones. I am not raising fools in this house!
The only thing i know that goes the other way around is vagisil. It's the same active ingredient as some athletes foot creams, but ends up being cheaper per ounce
Load More Replies...Then stop buying the pink ones. Problem solved. They only charge more because they figure women will pay it, and they're correct.
Load More Replies...Honestly feel the blades on woman's razors last much longer. I used to buy whatever was the cheapest and it really just felt like men's blades weren't up to the task of handling my wookie legs
TBF it's often the other way around. The razors I use are identical in Male and Female versions, but more often than not I get the Female ones for less.
Can confirm. The ladies' version usually comes in a 6+2 pack instead of just 6 at the same price. Still, I prefer men's aloe lotion strip, so I don't really care for the extra euro or so.
Load More Replies...I buy women's razors because the big shave gel buffer means I can shave faster and get cut less. They're amazing.
Who TF uses a single blade razor these days? However... I do always end up buying the same 5-blade my husband uses.

Just because I'm a woman, it doesn't mean that I don't know how to safely use a razor without cutting myself... damn!
Can I just state for the record that I hate pink and idea that all girls must like pink annoys the hell out of me.
My stepmother once called me a boy (in an a*****e kind of way) because I didn't want pink curtains. I was maybe 10. Im now 37 and I STILL remember her saying that s**t.

Ah Yes, Every Female Director Makes Movies Like This
It's "Hello Kitty" Thor, thank u very much! XD Kitty-Thor...d822c4.jpg
This is how every other loving scandinavian dude looks when he has little girls. No shame, even if they meet their boss at the supermarked and the glitter and hairbands are still present 💓
So IF a woman is directing a Thor movie, everything has to be pink and decorated with bows and ribbons? That would be the only difference? I want to see the whole fun! Let's get rid of fights and violence, let them have a cupcake competition!
Conversely a male director, I'd cast Salma Hayek as Thor. I'd actually cast Salma Hayek in every role in every film. Because, Salma Hayek.
The best part about the whole "red pill movement" is how they use "The Matrix" to justify & validate their sexist ideas & beliefs... yet the movie "the matrix" was written & directed by 2 women Lana & Lily Wachowski. Idk why more ppl don't talk about this to these Andrew tate wannabes...
Want to see the difference between a super hero movie directed by a woman and one directed by a man? Pay attention to the treatment of Harley Quin in Suicide Squad and in Birds of Prey. I think you will find it quite enlightening

There's nothing to get. When someone is a little bit bigoted, you can at least understand what they're wrong about and why they're wrong. When they're THIS bigoted, it can defy logic so deeply that it seems like they're speaking a different language.
Load More Replies...Another factor that contributes to gender gap is lack of legal protections. According to research from the World Bank, "Over one billion women don’t have legal protection against domestic sexual violence or domestic economic violence." Both of these things significantly affect how well women can succeed and live without limitations. In many places, there aren't enough legal protections against harassment at work, school, and in public. This makes these environments unsafe, and women often have to make choices that hold back their goals.
It's Always Princesses

My SIL's niece has been given control of a line of toys at Mattel. Can't wait to find out what she's doing!
When I was young, one of my teachers (male) started an astronomy club. We were studying a bit of it in science class and he recognized different kids in the class would like to have a club for that. But he recognized that for me, it was more than just a fun interest. It was a seriously deep interest. I wanted to study and learn. Had a serious aptitude for it. He started bringing me books to take home to study and we’d talk about it. I decided I wanted to be an astronaut. He didn’t laugh. Didn’t tell me “Girls can’t do that”. Everyone else did. First of all, you had to be a test pilot. The future of the space program was going to be about way more than that. Oh well…. I was jumping for joy the day Sally Ride went up in the space shuttle. And we were the same age. Bu!!$h!+ “girls” can’t be astronauts. We can be anything!!! On behalf of all the little girls of my generation who were told “girls can’t do that” and were actively stopped by the powers that be, middle finger to you!🤬
Barbie is a rare exception; there's a version of her for just about every respectable profession you can imagine. It's no coincidence that she was the first toy nationally marketed to girls that was designed exclusively by women. Almost all of the previous dolls designed by male toymakers were babies, because they thought the only profession that girls would ever want to roleplay is motherhood.

When religious freedom is targeted, women are the ones who are most affected. According to the WEF, when extreme terrorist organizations like ISIS limit religious freedom in a community, gender inequality worsens. Georgetown University and Brigham Young University conducted a study that linked religious intolerance to women's involvement in the economy. The study found that increased religious freedom leads to greater stability in the economy due to the increased participation of women.

Female orcs look like bikini models? Have they seen LotR or the Warcraft movie? I can't say that I've seen female trolls that look like bikini models either. Not that there are a lot of troll movies to base that on. As for demons, well they're an endless variety. If you want to use a succubus well yeah she's naturally going to be hot. Just like an incubus is going to be a hot male demon. The only one here that really makes sense is the Hulk/She-hulk comparison. And even then it falls apart because there are a variety of gamma powered heroes and a bunch of them aren't the same musclebound brute as the Hulk.
Then with Lara Croft they still had the character in a vest and shorts.

It might not be as easy to see as some other reasons, but how a society thinks overall really affects how men and women are treated unfairly. This affects lots of things like jobs, laws, and healthcare. People's ideas about gender are strong, and even if laws and things change, there's usually a pushback.

Load More Replies...It's badly named but at least it is a different product. I have no issue with the standard size masks but for women with small faces they don't fit very well.
Agreed. I have a small face so would appreciate smaller masks but not all women do - I have a female friend who is 6ft 1 and on the larger size so has a very round face. She'd need a bigger mask than some men. Could just say small, medium/standard or something.
Load More Replies...Now... these mask look the same, but there are "male" mask for people with beards 😉
Corporations: Larger clothing sizes cost more because we have to use more material and labor to make them. Me: So why are smaller masks more expensive? By your logic, you're using less material and labor to make them, so they should be cheaper. Corporations: Security!
This is not inferring women can't be surgeons because they are actually 2 different products. The blue one is a one size fits all lower quality mask and 50 count. Its the disposable one when you walk in the front door of the hospital. Main purpose is to keep you from breathing on someone and has no N rating. The red one is a N99 designed to stop viruses and is sold at 30 pieces. It specifies a size because fit is more important. They should have used medium instead of ladies though. The company also sells a men's (large) and junior (small) of the N99 masks.
They are of different size. Asian women often have considerably smaller faces.

It’s Hard To Notice, But If You Know What You’re Looking For It’s Easier
I absolutely hate these bows on babies. They look just awful. Who thinks it is great idea to put a bow on a baby with no hair. It just makes the baldness stand out more!
My mum started dressing my eldest brother in something that said 'I'm a boy' when he was a baby, because people kept assuming he was a girl. 30+ years later, she said she wouldn't bother if he had been born in this day and age, but back then, it seemed important. It was probably as much because he was her first, as anything else.
Besides being ridiculous enough to put a tight elastic on their baby's still soft head, how do they not even notice that they're putting an f'n garter belt on their child's head?!? 🤷♀️🤦♀️🙄
I’m not sure what you’re getting at, but if it’s not made to hold up garters, it’s not a garter belt, it’s just a piece of elastic. Also you say “garter-belt” like there is something inherently sexual about them when in reality they serve the same purpose as suspenders. Calm down, lol.

true . pink was a younger version of the red of soldiers or hunting jackets, blue from the virgin Mary. I think it was Queen Alexandra that swopped it over as what would now be seen as a gender statement - how ironic. {may be wrong on last point]
Load More Replies...Fun thing, until barely 100 years ago it was the other way around. Pink was a color traditionally preferred for boys, blue was for girls. Pink was seen as a softer shade of red, a manly color associated with strength and military aggression. Blue was a more delicate shade associated with luxury (it was once made with ground lapislazuli) and in Europe it was the color associated with the Virgin Mary.
People like this would be terrified to learn that intersex is a real thing...

I also couldn't wait not to have to take care of an assault rifle 24-7, and I can only stare at the Americas douchebuckets carry them on the street it to compensate for their micropenises. Hey dickwad, getting tactical gear baby stuff makes you a dipshit, not a Manly Man. And yes, I changed diapers. Didn't actually mind it much. I have a much stronger stomach than my wife.
To be fair, that would be the joke gift anybody from our unit would have gotten from us
Yeah I kinda like it. Whether you think the military aspect is bad or not, the heap of pouches and pockets is pretty cool.
Load More Replies...At least this is daddies choise, and not some projection on the gender of the baby
I think this was done in fun. To make parents have a giggle. I think it's a good marketing strategy
I wish that was true. I have seen these on FB. Its a real and serious item.

Cause Girls Dreams Are Only That Of Marriage
I have NEVER dreamed about getting married. Not once. Not even when I was a kid and heard that sleeping with a piece of wedding cake under your pillow would make you dream of your future husband. This morning's dream was about trying to protect my family from a prowling tiger.
In my latest dream, I was chased by flying boba pearls. While also being a god of the sea. My dreams are confusing.
Load More Replies...This isn't pointlessly gendered, just super sexist. Goes in line with the incel think that women aren't actual people, so have no hobbies or aspirations aside from snagging up a man.
My dreams have never been so mundane! I mean I used to regularly have dreams where I'd look up and some mile-long flying fortress was flying overhead. Once it was even the freaking Death Star!
I've dreamed that I was taking ballet class... does that count?
I had a dream last week about Zombies taking over and had to help get my husband and son out of the city... I have only had one dream in my life about a wedding and that was the night before my wedding and everything went wrong in the dream, but I think that was more my anxiety rather that me being a girl....
I had a dream last night that I had a pet polar bear that could talk and he wanted to sleep on my bed but I begged him not too cause he was too big

Gerty here was an American writer (therein lies the root of the problem), a supposed feminist, a racist, and a white supremacist (well, one entails the other I suppose). That quote doesn't seem too far off the mark for her.

If A Woman Was To Use This Her Arms Would Instantly Shatter
what are the point of these things though? do they really offer a better workout than just using your palms on the floor?
I assume the idea is that because you hands are higher than the floor you can dip your body lower than you would otherwise. The lower you body position gets the harder it is to raise. So in theory you should get a harder working pushup out of it. You could theoretically do this other ways. Like putting you feet on a higher surface (like a brick) as well.
Load More Replies...Okay but to be fair, I've been working out a lot the past few months and I still can't do a push up correctly, it hurts my shoulders
Are you doing other shoulder/arm related exercises? Like chest press or bench press as well? The other way you can work up to it is doing incline pushups. The idea is that they use the same motion and muscles but because you're not fully "flat" the amount of work needed to do them is less. You can even start with wall pushups, then move to incline pushups and gradually lower the incline more and more until you're doing regular pushups on the ground. https://www.healthline.com/health/incline-pushups and https://www.healthline.com/health/fitness-exercise/wall-pushups The other thing to consider is whether you've actually injured your shoulder. I managed to damage both shoulders when younger and never healed right. Went to a physiotherapist and they helped with a bunch of exercises targeted to help (had ultrasound scans on the shoulder to identify the damage too).

And to be fair, my Dad really liked the "Piano white" finish on one so he chose based on appearance as well. As for the post, I'd love to know the source of that image (couldn't see anything at reddit). So is it satire/humour or is it meant to be genuine advice?

OH THAT F-ING BAR IN THE MIDDLE OF THE BENCH TO BLOCK HOMELESS PEOPLE
Well to be fair, writing our heroine is going o get graffitied
I don't mind this one. It's an add that is specifically targeting women and its serves it's purpose. Provides instant identification of the target audience and provides a memorable URL. I don't see this is negative.

Love it when someone says something deeply offensive and then says "no offense" as if that let's them off the hook.
No offense, but I suggest that you go back to school and learn proper English. Could come useful one of these days.
What BP has taught me: Being a man is fraught with peril, because nearly everything they do can make people think they’re GAY 😱 Your best bet is to stay home away from people, where there’s no risk of people thinking you’re queer. 🙄
If only this person knew how to spell basic first grade words
"No offense", of course. Why such guy should feel offended? You just explained it soooooooo politely!

Rum And Coke Are Feminine
Drinking beer directly from a bottle is still bad manners in certain settings as far as I'm concerned. For anyone. Like those teens with beer bottles on park benches are not as cool as they think they are. Just trashy.

I feel stupid because I can’t see any (・人・). Someone point them out for me, please? (I’m thinking they’ve gotta be awfully small, as they shouldn’t be THIS difficult to spot!)

Comic I Found On Pintrest 🤦
I thought real men didn't say hi. You all need to get together and figure out the rules.
I believe it's that real men are not supposed to say "Hi!", they should only say "Hi"
Load More Replies...This is another one I don't have a problem with. It's literally a comic. From memory, originally from the 90s. It's not meant to be taken seriously or as some sort of "how to guide".
All Men Are Narcissists And All Women Are Insecure. Sure
I definitely know people who fit this stereotype. Then you take a second and realize you know just as many people that when switching the fenders, they that think that way about themselves too. If only everyone took a second to think! Can you imagine!
I can imagine, but I don't really want to - if people took only a second to think, they'd miss the mistakes they make, but still do the c**p they were up to in the first place! Na, kidding a little bit ... I know several of both types, pretty randomly spread.
Load More Replies...I think there is just as much pressure on men, it's just they are programmed to bury their feelings and get on with things. I have teen children and the people they have in their friend groups are really conscious of how they look
Speaking for myself, I hardly look in the mirror, so in my mind I still tend to look like I did 20 years ago. Every now and then I use a full body mirror and the realisation hits that yes I am actually an old fart.

You want to see tough, marching in high heels. Of course if it is good enough for the women It is good enough for the men.

I had a pink polo... granted I mostly bought it for Breast Cancer Awareness month. F**k cancer. But I wore it on a regular at work because I liked it. This manly man I worked with asked me if my shirt was salmon because there was no way he would wear it. I said: "No. It's pink, I'm not afraid of a color." I almost bought a pink tablet, but they didn't have the specs I wanted so I have rose gold. My laptop is purple... and when I was picking out a wheelchair, I thought about maroon and my wife thought green. She then said "You know you're going to choose purple, so just get it." She was right.
Would of been nice as a boy to of learned how to cook and sew in school. Instead of just being sent out into the world to figure it out because "boys don't need any support."
I took "Home ec" classes when i was in high school. One of the few boys in those classes but I hated shop class
Load More Replies...I find the concept of gender to be funny. My whole life I've looked somewhere between male or female. I'm not feminine looking at all despite being born female. I'm definitely not masculine either. I'm an in-between I suppose. Call me whatever you wish. You ain't hurting my feelings. I also wasn't brought up with a "this is for girls or this is for boys." My mom let me live how I wished and I thank her for that.
My mum was the same. Yes, she cut mohawks for my brothers, but that was their choice, she also helped trim my sister's hair when she got an undercut etc.
Load More Replies...I think one is missing. Tell me why there is a men's and women's world chess championships? Why not just one world championship? And to top it off they declare that trans cannot compete in the woman's world championships. And after there is a backlash from that statement they have gone off to "reconsider". One can certainly argue that certain trans individuals might have physical advantages over woman, but chess? How do you come with these separations without the belief that woman are inferior mentally? Why don't people challenge that very idea?
... if you ever wondered, go to a pharmacy or drugstore and check out incontinence products. The max capacity stuff, usually, is unisex, but pads are not just pads, designed to absorb a bit of pee, but "protective shields" ... and so on. And then, some sports-dude found out and figured that these were meant to men-struate ... instead of the known women-struation, the manly and male men-struation, and the supply of things to deal with it, made him upset, obviously not being aware of the fact that ANY and EVERY function of a human body will, in some cases, in some persons, fail.
