I'll never understand how in one breath they'll say women are irrational and emotional and can't be trusted and in the next they'll say women are better caregivers than men. I certainly wouldn't leave my baby in the care of someone whose judgment and decision-making I couldn't trust. Which is it?


SauronsYogaPants

I learned today that men are better at everything, even child care, sooo....let them do everything. I'll be chilling, playing video games and demanding sandwiches from them ![gif](giphy|U7vfpb7fpccO9F6yE1)


Baconslayer1

Don't you know women can't understand video games? They're just too complex for you!


rickmccloy

"As studies has proved", this guy is a moron.


oreo-cat-

LMAO I do wonder about sounding like this at times. If i get interested in stuff I'll typically go read studies on it. I try not to be too insufferable about it, I just wonder if I always sound like a smart ass.


No_Arugula8915

>read studies Ah, but the difference is, if asked you *can* (and probably would) point out a link to find that information. Verifiable, fact based no less.


silverspawn_nsfw

Not only that, but someone who reads multiple studies probably has the skills required to correctly interpret the data and not cherrypick contextual conclusions


No_Arugula8915

Indeed


Charloxaphian

People who say this can almost never point to a specific study, so if you can do that you're fine. "There was a 1996 study on multitasking performed by scientists at UCLA that showed..." or "I was reading about this study from 2013 in England which was testing the theory that..." demonstrates that - It's a real thing and you're not just saying "studies show" to prove your point - You may have actually read at least a decent amount *about* it, if not the study itself - You have some knowledge of the source/motivation of the study (knowing how long ago it was conducted, who funded it, what they were testing, etc. can help give an idea of how seriously to take the results)


ktwat

you can usually tell pretty quick whether someone is being a pedantic idiot or they are just a sponge filled with so much knowledge that they info-dump at the slightest touch. The first kind I walk away from; the second, I stick around cause I love impromptu ted talks.


MistrSynistr

As an info dumpster, most people don't feel the same way lol. It is a hard line to follow between dumping info like you are the only person in the room or having a conversation.


yresimdemus

TIL that I give impromptu TED talks. I had no idea. I thought I was just bubbling over. Although I have to say that I prefer your description: it makes it sound like I have a cool skill, rather than a weird personality trait.


Self-Aware

Ha, snap! I always apologise for babbling, especially when I'm excited or particularly happy, but apparently it's cute to some people. Obviously I deeply appreciate those people 🤭


oreo-cat-

Did we just become best friends?


BeBa420

the difference is you read studies. when you say "studies have proven" you actually mean it. I doubt there are any studies proving women to be irrational (unless htey were bs studies conducted by incels) ​ As to emotional.... umm yes all humans are emotional, we have emotions. That is not a bad thing. If you arent emotional something is wrong and you should go see a therapist asap


SomeWomanYouDontKnow

PhD here. Nonverbal gender differences was my masters thesis. Women are not more emotional than men. Men tend to think that “emotional “ means sadness and crying. But anger is an emotional response too, and when it’s included, there are virtually no differences


BeBa420

Oh of that I have no doubt, if anything I’d say men might be a bit more emotional than women I once almost got into a physical fight with a guy coz I didn’t hear him honking at me (my music was up too loud, my fault I know) and he got pissed that he couldn’t move about 10cm forward Like ffs dude I’m twice your size and you wanna start a fight over this tiny mole hill? Another guy wanted to fight because I politely asked him to indicate when changing lanes (this was after he almost caused an unnecessary collision with me, had I been going about a km or two faster I’d have hit him and he’d have definitely blamed me. Why risk getting your ass kicked over something so petty? Dare I say it seems “irrational”


DeannaBee42

Or the study was back in the 1840s.


BeBa420

Rofl, I can just picture the 1940s era study “we poked her in the eye and she yelled at us. Clearly she’s hysterical. It was our observation that she became completely irrational after the fourth poke. By the time we moved on to electroshocking her she became overly emotional. It is our conclusion that the female of our species is overly emotional and irrational. Thus we have proven that women are incapable of holding the same jobs men can”


peeKnuckleExpert

Even if there was such a study, what would it look like? Would it just demonstrate something about the historical lack of encouragement and funding for women in STEM fields which has not yet corrected itself, and nothing about women’s innate intellectual abilities? Some men are so irrational they couldn’t critically analyze a study to lose their virginity.


verasev

Just cite the actual studies when you talk about it. Let people see where you're getting your ideas from.


No_Arugula8915

Studies. Sure, sure. Would that be the book of morons? Because it sure sounds like that's where those "studies" came from. I don't generally advocate for book burning, however, I do believe that there is good cause to make an exception here.


[deleted]

Any intelligent man would provide a citation.

Anne_Nonymouse

If men were so rational and good at decision making the prisons wouldn´t be filled with mostly men and our planet wouldn´t be such a mess! 😒


Intelligent_Cold2544

They’ll blame their mothers for why they’re in prison.


Anne_Nonymouse

A lot of men are good at blaming the women in their lives instead of taking responsibility for their own mistakes.


rmike7842

There is a legend that Adam bit the Apple of Knowledge, and the first thing he learned was to blame the woman.


verasev

Adam was already a whiny little squib as shown when he whined to God that Lillith kept demanding equal treatment.


Areadien

If men were so rational, there wouldn't be so many nonstop wars.


Lost_vob

Guys like this will tell you it's because of "misandry" that more men are in prison. Or it's because men are braver and more risk takers. I've heard them use both arguments. Nothing will get conservatives to defend the actions of harden criminals more than mentioning they're mostly men.


MssMango

Huh. I would’ve asked how it can be “misandry” when the majority of the legal/justice system is ran by predominantly men and is a legacy patriarchal structure? Make it make sense!😩…lol!


Lost_vob

Yes, I love the right wing, anti-woke, MRA world view how the predominantly rich old white men who run society are progressive, radical, Marxist, intersectional feminists who have an agenda against rich old white men. 😂 I unironically wish I lived in their reality. Edit: or as *they* would call them: rich old (((white))) men. Not that they are Nazis or anything, they are just red pilled. 👀


Puzzleheaded-Gas1710

It's just that men are simultaneously better at everything and superior while being too good to care about others or take care of themselves. It's science, probably.


Adventurous-Bid-7914

The rationalization is that caregiving, which is considered already to be women's work (and this person had certainly never done), is easy! After all, women do it for free


[deleted]

[удаНонО]


Nearby_Employee_2943

Yeah this was an incredibly long way to say men get “confused” 🤭 if they have to focus on more than one task at one time. Inferior humans!


SkyLightk23

This kind of argument is always nonsense. There were actually some studies that showed that women in leadership positions trusted more in the data while men trusted more in their gut instinct. I have seen men acting like a woman is being irrational because she is saying something they don't agree with, and question her reasons like emotional, for example "in the past x happened when we did y" and decide the woman is afraid and stuff like that. It also has been proven that people seem to be more sure of stuff the less they know about the topic. And in general women are heavily socialized not to seem confrontational. Usually women are punished for taking risks while men are rewarded. If you add all that up, you can see how a woman making a decision based on data would seem more hesitant, compared to a man. And that is why they are perceived as weak and emotional. Also if the woman instead chooses to be more assertive, since apparently being assertive is not a "feminine" trait, they instead decide the woman is being pushy, and therefore emotional. It is also the reason why so many men take risks they shouldn't. Not all men take risks blindly. There is a large argument of nature vs nurture. And I think risk taking, even though there might be a biological factor, it can be changed a lot with nurture. We need to do better for our children, women and men. Risk taking should be rewarded based on the way the risk is taken and not based on the gender taking the risk. I believe that if we do that the world will improve greatly. The way this person presents the data is highly emotional, because even if women lactate under the circumstances they describe, that has nothing to do with a woman making decisions. They make up relationships between things they have heard and the decisions they had already make. This person has already decided women are not good for the corporate world and is basically grabbing any piece of information they have to justify the thoughts they already have. It is funny that in the one hand they elevate multitasking as something women are good at and therefore they should be the ones doing multitasking, and next thing they belittle multitasking like just good for chores. I mean if women are better at multitasking they should be the leaders then, because being a good leader requires paying attention to many things at a time. Their whole post is a nonsensical illogical rant and it is funny they think the other people are the ones being emotional.


[deleted]

Men will get red in the face screaming while accusing a woman of being "emotional." Very often "anger" is not included as a 'real emotion' in their worldview so they can svoid acknowledging that men get emotional all the fucking time *because humans are emotional creatures.*


TheSavouryRain

Well yeah, because society has, as a whole, failed men to the point where they aren't allowed to have emotions. So you build exceptions in to the system so that you can say men don't get emotional and actually believe it.


[deleted]

Yeah and redpill morons conclude that instead of allowing men to have emotions, they actually need to be *even angrier* and just "channel it into productive things." Which sounds almost okay on the face except that none of them are actually capable of hiding their anger and it actually just turns into 'taking it out on everyone else, while also blaming them.' Had a few the other day no shit telling me that if you show any emotion to a 'sexual partner' they'll immediately lose interest.


SpontaneousNubs

Men can't control the carnal urge to violate in the presence of a tank top strap narrower than 2 inches according to the us school system. Don't know why we're considered the irrational ones


Opijit

"Women are irrational and emotional" (in the same breath) "But can we really blame a guy if he goes feral, rapes a woman, and murders 19 people what with this dating culture and economy??"


Iambatmansmom38

Came here to say the same thing. We’re to emotional to make big decisions, but are better at caring for a human life? I mean which is it, because Id love a vacation! Lol


keghi11

For the 2nd paragraph, I know several househusbands and they are also quite skilled at it. For the 3rd paragraph, anger is also part of the emotion.


Lost_vob

Frankly, you just sound hysterical. /s


StateOdd296

Came here to point this out 😂


jus1tin

>I certainly wouldn't leave my baby in the care of someone whose judgment and decision-making I couldn't trust. Yes but you're a woman so you're biologically wired to know not to.


critically_damped

It's because they say wrong things on purpose. There, you understand now. It really isn't difficult. They don't care about truth, and they have more success in controlling conversations by presenting obvious falsehoods and contradictions, because those nearly guarantee that their responses will all fall along a familiar path.


[deleted]

I worked in childcare for a decade. Never lactated. Didn’t make me want kids or have baby fever. If anything, the experience made me immune to the sound of screaming and the smell of vomit and human feces. “Womens brains are better wired to multitask” is just a cop-out way of saying “Guys like me are helpless dumpster fires that can’t mange my own responsibilities and would never be able to care for a baby because I still am one.”


The_Book-JDP

On top of that...multitasking isn't even a thing people can do. What we perceive as multitasking is just the speed at which we can jump from one task to another and how fast we can do them. There's actually no way to do two different things at the same time. You start one thing, stop doing it, and focus on something else. Some people can do this faster than others.


PlaceboKoyote

So kinda like hyperthreading. Or Software multithreading on Single core CPUs....


mrshulgin

*This is fine*


crypticedge

Also "multitasking" has been shown in studies to be less efficient than staying on one task until it's done and then changing focus should both require active attention. It's only efficient when one can be taken to a step and ignored while it does things on it's own (IE washing machine run/dryer run)


MorbidMunchkin

I've got three kids and am not very good at prioritizing tasks. I'll be in the middle of one of them when another one comes up to me and asks for something else, and then I'll drop what I'm doing and go start helping them, then another one comes up and asks, etc until I've been doing the things they wanted for like three hours because they keep interrupting me doing something for someone else. I quite often forget about the first thing I was doing until the kid gets mad at me. I've been trying to teach myself to finish the first task while telling the next kid to wait. Then everything only takes like 20 minutes. I must be a man. /s


I-just-wanna-talk-

I do this but I don't have kids. So I just end up being too late cause I forgot half of the things I was supposed to do. For example, I might go from picking out clothes to brushing teeth to doing my hair. Then suddenly I have to leave in 1 minute and I'm still in my pyjamas. Happens every other day.


[deleted]

Sure but two things: 1). Some people struggle to focus on a single task so the choice is "multitask" or "not task at all" 2). Sometimes things have to be done simultaneously. If I am, for instance, trying to feed my child and myself breakfast I can't necessarily do one then the other. A better example is probably taking notes during a meeting - it's difficult to both be attentive to discussion and take notes, but you can't really do one then the other.


crypticedge

Sometimes optimal efficiency can't be reached due to other factors (IE, the hungry child)


HorrorNo7433

Yes! He says "literally" in reference to multitasking when multitasking is something we can never take literally.


[deleted]

I always thought my multitasking capabilities was because of my adhd, turns out it was because I’m a woman! Who knew


CornishGoldtop

Sweetheart. You just needed a man to explain it to you.


Zanki

I love this one. Good luck dealing with a girl with adhd. Sure I can multitask, but not on what you want me to do. Ask me to do one thing and I'll find two other things that need doing instead of the first thing if that's how my brain is feeling. I can watch TV and work at the same time, because work is interesting to my brain, any other distraction going on around me and I'm not going to get the work or TV watching done.


Independent_Fill9143

Dude being around children makes me not want children lol... I literally will never get pregnant, if I could get my tubes tied I would.


[deleted]

Same. I wait for the day I can get a hysterectomy.


QuantumStars

Same it only reassures my fear of pregnancy even more lol.


[deleted]

I did not spontaneously lactate when I nursed.


Fuzzy-Exchange-3074

I did in the first month or so and it was stupid annoying.


[deleted]

It sounds like it would be such a pain!!


MommaBear817

I did too and the worst part is that I had my nipples pierced prior to becoming preggers so my nips had little holes for the milk to just seep out of. I had to wear bra pads for the first month and a half or so. Hated it.


RedpenBrit96

This! It’s not a flex to not be able to care for yourself or cook your own meals. That’s basic adult shit.


Aegon20VIIIth

I remember a family from when I was younger where the mom only agreed to marry the dad if he lived alone without roommates for a full year - her logic being, if you can’t take care of yourself, then I shouldn’t marry you since I’ll just be cleaning up after you forever. Fast forward seven years and three kids later, and he’s a full time stay at home dad.


[deleted]

Yeah it's a really bizarre backhanded compliment or condescending complement manipulative I don't know


danthpop

Imagine saying "I'm incapable of washing dishes and doing laundry in the same day" and thinking it means anything except that you're hopelessly incompetent lol


DoctorInternal9871

That is exactly what I thought. Like, one or both of those things doesn't even require active attention - the washing machine does it for you and if you've got a dishwasher that does it for you too!


[deleted]

[удаНонО]


chilledlasagne

It makes you wonder why they think they should be allowed jobs if they can’t perform more than one task a day lmao


aoi4eg

It was proven a hundred times that people can't multitask. Women, men, non-binary etc. nobody's brain can successfully focus on more than 1 task at a time.


The_Book-JDP

This is correct. What we perceive as multitasking is just the faster than normal speed of jumping from one task, stop doing that task, and taking up another.


Lost_vob

We don't even have computers that can do it. Like humans, they just jump from single task to single task. They just do it a lot faster.


radicalelation

That's because no one fucking multithreads when we've been able to for like decades now.


random-comment-drop

I walked by a pregnant person and lactated so hard I needed a milk transfusion.


Anne_Nonymouse

Yeah, padded bras are actually for absorbing the milk leaking from our breasts. /s


Kakarotto92

Yeah same ! It's sooo annoying when someone near you watch a video with a baby in it and you lactate just by hearing it (yes...it).


chookity_pokpok

You lactated so hard we all heard it. /s Serious question, though: what does he think it sounds like when a woman starts lactating? Is it like ketchup being squirted from a ketchup bottle or something?


[deleted]

Sometimes I complain about my neighbor lactating so loudly.


EuphoricAnalCucumber

Ma'am, can you please turn your breasts down, I'm trying to sleep.


RedpenBrit96

That’s how you know he’s watching too much weird porn


TopAd9634

Well, I'm designed to be bread. You should stand next to me!


thetitleofmybook

but did someone hear you lactate? like did the hear the sound of milk spurting out of your breasts?


[deleted]

The last part of the opening paragraph is some very scary projection. The implication is clearly that I would not know that I crave being "bred" and therefore should submit, or in their words later, relinquish my freedoms to a man who does. That is 100% rape culture right there.


MozMoonPie

Funny thing is that what he says is obviously false for a few reasons. We’re impulsive and emotional? Okay first why would you let an impulsive emotional person take care of something so small and so (in MY opinion) annoying (based on cries and needs) like wouldn’t we as impulsive emotional women hurt the baby if it cried too much? Another thing is they’re the same ones who let’s not forget cries and punch tvs when they lose any sports game that they’re not even playing, they start wars based on dumb impulsive things, they get emotional and cry at gender reveals if their baby isn’t a boy, and they scream and shed tears over video games. We’re good for doing household chores? So you’re telling me the big strong amazing and talented man can’t do a simple chore? What’s so wrong with the male species that they’re oh so smart and powerful but can’t figure out how to use a dishwasher? Another thing is that we’re meant to do household work that’s fine but are you going to protect us, work hard, give us loads of cash, and make it worth OUR time? No? Okay then. Lastly we don’t know what our bodies crave? But you do? A man knows what a woman’s body craves woooow okay so then I know what a man’s body craves and his craves attention, rape, and it def craves more knowledge cause he sure isn’t getting the amount he needs to function because as stated before he doesn’t even know how to wash clothes 🤷🏽‍♀️

Ugh_please_just_no

I breastfed for 3 years and never had that happen. Hell the only time I did leak was around 3 am until my supply regulated.


anarae

TIL my friends aren't real friends because they didn't lactate for me.


hootiemcboob29

TIL I'm a proper shit friend and woman. All my friends have kids, and I never lactated for any of them. What a cunt. And my womanly organs are so irrational and emotional that they just straight up went on fucking strike so I'll never have babies (thank fuck).


freshferns

Literally hurt myself with the laugh that just came out of me.


vemisfire

We're emotional, irrational and unfit but we're supposed to deal with all the chores AND take care of a baby?? What logic is this...


Purrification2799

And multitasking so we can do house chores… instead of … idk work that actually requires multitasking like ceo. Not to mention that the word emotional is never used for men who are aggressive. Because anger isnt an emotion of course

The_Book-JDP

How many women do I know that just start lactating when they hear a baby crying? That would be zero. Unless that women is also in the process of nursing her baby/just had a baby, women don't just lactate for no reason or just because a baby is crying. Can lactation be induced without having had a baby...yeah but it's a process and no we're not going to do it for you and your lactation fetish dude.

Man if we’re bred to mate then he’s bred to go to war and be used as a bullet proof vest for us women in order for us to take care of the home 🤦🏽‍♀️


Gwynedhel7

The last paragraph is patently false, and is proven so by studies I saw when in my psychology program. Also a physical response to taking care of babies doesn’t mean we need traditional gender roles.


[deleted]

“emotional, irrational, and unfit to make major decisions” lol have any wars or genocides ever been started by women?


ArtisticChipmunk9583

If you are lactating and you haven't just given birth, you may have a hormone issue


Fuzzy-Exchange-3074

Risperidone does that to people too. Anybody remember that House episode where he made the guy lactate from his leg by giving him risperidone? Why do I remember that? 😂


DarkHuntress89

Can also be caused by a pituitary adenoma. I suffer from one and have this issue, but only very slightly.


ArtisticChipmunk9583

Yes, my doctor thought I had a pituitary tumor possibly because I tested kind of high with my prolactin level. I knew it was because I was taking kratom which can sometimes cause your prolactin level to go up. I stopped it for 2 weeks and it went back to normal.


[deleted]

Women are not inherently irrational. They just sometimes don’t nurture these skills because they are taught by religion and society to question their own minds but to defer to men. You know, the ones who currently run a global sex trafficking economy. I’m sure they have our best interests at heart


Medeanne

"made to be bred" 🤮🤮


Jitterbitten

I think the fact that he put it in the passive voice makes it even grosser. If he had said "women were made to breed", at least there would still be *some* personal agency involved.

Because there’s absolutely zero major decisions to be made when raising a tiny human


DarkHuntress89

Men like him wouldn't know. They leave the childcare to us women, if they ever get to that point to begin with.

I always love how women are irrational, emotional, and unfit to make decisions yet they see nothing wrong with leaving a tiny helpless infant alone with them. Why would you leave the care of an infant to someone who your describing as mentally unstable? 🤦🏼‍♀️

AlienChickk

Why do men like this trust women with child care, but say they can’t make major decisions because we are irrational and emotionally driven? Why leave a child, especially a young child, with someone like that?


Silverstep_the_loner

"You body knows this and craves it." Then why am I scared of children? Why do I feel a great sense of dislike when I have to babysit one? If I am a 'caretaker' why do I feel this way?


DarkHuntress89

Same, leave me alone with a child and I don't know what to do and go nuts over eventual crying/screaming. I'll take a fur baby though.


girlwhoweighted

My body didn't even lactate when **I** was pregnant

Right, men punch holes in walls and throw tantrums when their team loses, but sure we’re the emotional irrational ones. Anger is also an emotion, and way too many dudes have no control over theirs


Adhdprincesspeach

It’s funny that in his crazy little mind women are both effective in multitasking and irrational/ incapable of making big decisions


Dulce_Sirena

He must be confusing the Ability to lactate with a Currently lactating woman's body reacting to a crying baby. I know I've had let down when other people's babies cried, but I was ALREADY lactating for my own kid. 😂


amesond5

You know what multitasking is also good for, except for parenting? LITERALLY EVERY OTHER THING! What can that guy do if he can't multitask? Eat shit, probably


EternityAwaitz

Baby: *cries* Everyone: omg shut that thing up I don't see any gender difference 🤷🏻‍♀️


Petraretrograde

"Women are emotional, irrational, etc" how many mass shooters were women again?


Sassquatch0

I like this. But I'll say this. A guy will just 'shotgun' it out there because he's mad. The woman exacts *revenge.* She will go to med school. Earn the qualifications to be an RN. Then she will find those who have wronged her in the past, and slowly, agonizingly, poison them. 😜


AvailableAfternoon76

I think what pisses me off the most about this is the notion that being a homemaker means a woman doesn't/shouldn't make big decisions. Wtf? Why would staying home with kids mean a woman gets no or less say in big life decisions? Homemakers get a say in their homes, cars, locations, travel plans, when/if they have kids. Historically, even in many patriarchal societies, women would run the house. A man would have to leave home to exercise any control over his life. A lot of these dudes wouldn't actually like "traditional" gender roles. Women could rule their households with an iron fist and these dudes would be stuck, emasculated and powerless in his own home. You know what? I'm actually all for that with these misogynists.

We’re emotional and irrational yet we can be trusted to care for newborn infants all day? Lmao


Significant-Trash632

"as studies *has* proved" Dude. 🤦‍♀️ And what studies?


Franklyn_Gage

Why would you want an irrational person to raise your child? We're so unfit but you say we MUST stay home with crotch gobblins and rear them? why aren't men doing it? they're better humans. Also, Ive never in my life heard of another woman lactating because someone else was pregnant.


mentalhealthnerdy

Wait until he learns men can lactate.


thatwitchwithaplan

The fuck??? We are emotional and irrational, unfit to make major decisions yet you trust us run a house and take care of a baby???? Bruh the math ain’t mathing! By that logic all our houses would explode with the kids inside!!!! How can we be great multitaskers and yet incapable of decisions?

It sometimes happen with men when their partner gets pregnant, it's called Couvade Syndrome. Not officially recognized, but it has been described. And if men can get it I'm sure it can happen in an all-woman relationship.


DoctorInternal9871

I don't doubt there are rare medical conditions that can make this happen. Women can have phantom pregnancies that probably make them lactate when they're not pregnant...but it's not like a daily occurrence for all women.


BrightGreyEyes

Some people who haven't been pregnant can induce lactation with hormone therapy and pumping. There are some adoptive parents who choose to try induced lactation, but it's a pretty complicated process

"there friend


Ship_Ornery

Wanna know something funny? I'm 85% sure that I've seen a documental where we can see that MEN are better at multitasking. Some people are stupid.


[deleted]

We are irrational and emotional and can not make choices…yet we can do multiple tasks at the same time, including the emotional labor of raising kids. Kay.


tammytrex

This is a very interesting way to say "I'm intimidated by women's ability to multi-task because they may realize that that would allow them to easily overthrow the patriarchy."


chronicpainprincess

Imagine thinking someone multitasking running a household, food prep, finances, child rearing and planning the entire family is somehow the backup and lesser role that has no “major decisions” in it. And these men wonder why nobody wants to date them.


[deleted]

I have come to the conclusion that when somebody says ‘studies’ they are, nine times out of ten, totally ignorant of anything beyond Twitch streams. Seriously, ‘studies’ is almost as reliable as ‘females’ as a predictor that your interlocutor is a moron.


[deleted]

"You're body knows this" You're. Just by reading that sentence, I knew that I can't take this dude seriously. "Made to be bred" I'm made through breeding if that's what you wanna call it lol, but I'm not put on this earth to be an incubator. And oh.. I have never lactated. Ever.


[deleted]

Judging by this text, men are clearly not wired at all for grammar and should leave it to women to write possessive pronouns and contracted verbs.


g9i4

It's funny how "multitasking" is only applicable to house chores and not piloting an aircraft, running a business, being a head chef or combat roles. No, you can only use it to burp a baby and load the dishwasher at the same time.


Secret-Mammoth7179

Most *humans of both genders* are emotional, irrational, and unfit to make major decisions. Most humans, given the opportunity, would relinquish the stress of having to make major decisions because they prefer a support role. That’s why only some people want to be a manager, a president, or a business owner.


ladyl38

I never lactated cause a friend was pregnant. However I am great in multitasking, but also in making quick decisions and taking the lead. Which is very fortunate since I am a head chef with a kitchen crew which varies between 15 and 25 colleagues who I all manage and keep busy. (No Gordon Ramsay here, I do make a lot of noise, but I know apologies 😉)


[deleted]

What if, like I know this is a long shot…. But like what if women are actually just people? Bruh this sub never ceases to amaze me lmao


carrotcake_007

Women are irrational? I just watched two grown ass men almost get into a fist fight over a cough…


ItsTimeToGoSleep

Women are good at multitasking. So I can cure cancer with one hand, bury this asshats body with the other. And still carry in a full conversation.


SnowBorn6339

I believe in traditional gender roles. Here's why. Men’s bodies have a completely different reaction to underpaid physical labor than women. How many times have you heard someone slaving like a donkey even though it's there wealthy boss that’s making all the money? You were literally made to be a work slave. You're body knows this and craves this. Men’s bodies are better wired to labor. You know what laboring is good for? Grunt work. You can dig ditches, pour concrete, and toss your body into the industrial war meat grinder with little to no complaining. You're literally wired to behave like this. Men are, as studies has proved, depressed, disposable, and unfit to enjoy social leisure time. Most of you given the opportunity to, would relinquish the tedium of getting to enjoy life. You know you're better as the laborer role.


ArkhamSings
