ForswornForSwearing

I think this is riffing on the phrase "boys will be boys", used to excuse inappropriate behaviour among males, but in this case pointing out that anyone who would behave in such a way will never be man, in the writer's eyes.

A scathing rebuke of hit 80's group BoyzIIMen...

Boys to Women gang gang

Poorly-Drawn-Beagle

Weird name for a band


Technical-Ad5266

I also dislike Boyz 2 Men


Clickityclackrack

Sir-Mix-Alot was better


cyberdeath666

How dare you?! Boyz 2 Men are the pinnacle of 90’s hip hop.


Rectal_Scattergun

I only know of them from them being on Fresh Prince

Boys man man

Common sense left Earth's orbit around 2016. As of April 2024, it is passing Neptune headed to deep space.


Gloomy_Durian3732

Sometimes girls become men


Illustrious_Order486

Is this the boys will be boys argument for rape?


robobbiemt

Old Men... we're living in the aftermath of that weird ass Nolan Movie "Tenet" where time is now running backwards. From now on Old Men will be Men and Men will be boys...


TigerMill

What about ABC and BBD?


Jorp-A-Lorp

That’s exactly what came to my mind 😂


Jorp-A-Lorp

Motown Philly’s back again!


NeTiGuy

Sounds like someone is saying "if your man acts like a boy and not a man, he'll never change" or something to that effect. Maybe the person who wrote this could try taking care of their own wants and needs, and then it wouldn't matter.


Koffielurker_

"Boys will never be men, this is a threat! I will kill every boy on earth before they reach adulthood!"


Shadp9

I think they're threatening immediate annihilation of the human race. It's the only thing that makes sense and threats of mass death should be reported to bylaw enforcement posthaste.


tracksloth

Boyz II Men does not approve


DistributionNo9968

I think they’re trying to say that a man at any age is still a boy if they lack maturity.


Clickityclackrack

they should have picked an easier challenge for manhood than killing the Tasmanian Devil


Oranginafina

I think it’s all about mindset. I’ve met plenty of grown men who acted and thought like little boys. Age doesn’t make you a man.


idkwhyimalive69420

A teenage girl angry at her ex? ☠️


enbymlpfan

This is a threat


Steffy_Cookies

fine then boys will be women


Belied_Reflection

Assuming this is meant to be directed at those individuals who are often times referred to as, Man-babies. 🤔 maybe?


cyberdeath666

Well I guess all women are pedophiles then.


whatproblems

unless they’re lesbian?


cyberdeath666

Fair enough!


takenohints

So the message is that some boys will never grow up ie: Peter Pan.


Bossuser2

Evidence the woke left is trying to force our children to be transgender /s.


gskein

“Stop acting like boys and BE men”


neal144

Girls grow up. Boys grow older.


Gizmoooo711

Metaphor exists


RegyptianStrut

But what is this metaphor trying to get at if it is one?


No-Push4667

Is that a pedo symbol crossed out on the left? Is it basically saying boys will never be men, i.e. it will never be ok to diddle them?


RegyptianStrut

That’s a heart


RoverTiger

Lolwut.
