After spending ten minutes on the toilet pondering, I think „growing facial hair“ is the best counter-example I can come up with.
Or I just don‘t know enough women who like growing facial hair.
as a man I hate facial hair, so there must be a woman who loves it, for balance
I would really love to have a beard. I have joked that I am clearly wishing I were a dwarven woman, because besides this, I am very happy with my assigned gender at birth
I also have a friend who, due to hormonal stuff, naturally grows an extremely thick and impressive beard and wishes that they didn’t have to shave it (if they don’t, they get hate crimed :( )
most real reply here.
Happy bearded ladies are real. Upsets the hyperbreeding propaganda in my country though, so harassment and supression is real. But those things come from other people, not the beard growing itself.
Verified real complaints about sweaty summer beard. Also braids and beads sexy.
Also, intersex people are real, varied, and probably more common than red hair genotypes. Either ridiculed or fetishized, again not unlike ginger pigmentation.
Not a woman, but I know an agender person who’s super hyped to get facial hair.
That’s simple. Growing facial hair isn’t cool, it’s facial hair itself that’s cool.
Someone with a big walrusy Wilford Brimly moustache is cooler than someone who’s working on growing a moustache.Well groomed, long hair, like well-maintained, thick, stretched earlobes, communicate patience and the ability to finesse your way through difficult, potentially uncomfortable situations in service of a larger, long term goal. Unfortunately, you can be very patient at becoming an asshole as well as becoming a decent, well rounded person. Facial hair doesn’t make you cool. Being a cool person makes you cool.
It’s not something only men can do, otherwise playing with their own dick would qualify.
Some trans women love their dicks.
If I were a man I’d absolutely love to grow facial hair.
Using a cup while playing sports? I don’t know if it’s a like though…
yah that’s just PPE lol
I sent this post to my friend. His response:
Is there literally anything only men like?
There are male biased things, ie. gaming, woodworking, wingsuiting, cimbing etc.
but are there any things literally only males like?
Well, Joe Rogan
maybe some things so incredibly niche that only one or two people total like them, if those people happen to be men?
Fortran
They said men, not masochists
Some obscure math, and obscure programming languages. I dunno, but it feels like no women would be dumb enough to devote tons of effort into things like haskell-adjacent languages.
Learning that language is probably too much of a haskell for anyone really.
That doesn’t really stop people, though.
Yes there is:
Only men like nothing.
Explanation:
“Only XYZ like ABC” is equivalent to: “Everyone who likes ABC is also an XYZ.”
Since everybody likes at least something, there is no one who likes nothing. The statement: “Everyone who likes nothing is also a man” is true because the “Everyone who likes nothing” part results in 0 people. And it’s true to say that everyone in a group of 0 people is a man. It’s also true that everyone in a group of 0 people is not a man.
But other than vacuous truths, no sentence stating “Only man like XYZ” is true.
I have no idea why you’re being downvoted. Perhaps it’s coming off as a bit rude to some?
raping women I imagine
Women can rape women — although masculine rape culture is definetly the biggest culprit behind rapes.
yeah so am I wrong
Well, considering the question was, “is there anything that literally only males like”, and there are in fact women that sexually assault other women, then yes, you are wrong.
That’s just something like 0.01% though, so I’d say it’s negligible
While certainly a minority, they are not negligible. Especially so in prisons, where inmate-on-inmate SA can be over 3 times higher for women than for men.
where inmate-on-inmate SA can be over 3 times higher for women than for men.
You’re referring to the fact that women are 3 times as likely to be victim of SA, not the offender.
He is correct, if only by a triviality:
There is probably nothing that only men like
Triviality? That is the main focus of the sentence.
My absolute favourite thing is women doing things that “only men do.”
(P.S. am a woman)
I do like me some role reversal 😏
But my trainsssss
there’s girls who like trains, i’ve met them! reckon sometimes they’re less vocal bc mansplaining is upsettingly common in any male dominated hobby :/
Agree with the mansplaining angle. Passionate people like to explain, combine this with not being the most socially adept and voila you have mansplaining.
I think there’s a negative cycle also, where a male-dominated hobby where many people are not super socially skilled makes them more oblivious to some of the nuances that turn “explaining” into “mansplaining” (I.e. they are less likely to understand how their behaviour is making their hobby less welcoming for certain people), which makes the hobby more male dominated, both in appearance and actuality
Hi, I am the girl who likes trains :3
Check out Blondihacks on YouTube. She’s a hobby machinist who is currently building a working model Pennsylvania A3 Switcher.
Do you really think they’re cool though?
I have hobbies that are very male-dominated, but I know they’re not cool, and that doesn’t bother me. I’m happy being uncool and enjoying my hobbies.
I think the difference is that some boys are unembarrassed about liking Joe Rogan, and make it their whole personality. You should feel a little embarrassed to admit that you listen to Joe Rogan. You should feel embarrassed that you’re obsessed about WWE or UFC. But, it’s not just male things. Niche interests, especially niche interests that are gender-specific are things that don’t make you cool. Like, a girl who is obsessed with makeup tutorials on TikTok shouldn’t think that makes her cool either.
Tomorrow’s the SuperbOwl. If some guys are super excited about that, it’s fine. They should just acknowledge that being obsessed with a sport played by other people isn’t cool. It’s as uncool as Warhammer 40k or… trains.
I think trains are cool? 😭
Look, idk about you, but if you haven’t played soldiers and tanks with a bunch of grown ass men, get yourself to a WH40k group and learn what cool is.
And then you’re hanging out in your local shop looking at some Space Dwarfs and stroke up a conversation with a dude who starts talking about the Black Templars and how cool they are for defending the Imperium just like All of the Real Crusaders which is honestly kind of weird because the dude is fucking Asian?
That wasn’t your damage, bro.
There absolutely are women who like Warhammer.
Historicals though… I’ve never seen a woman excited about fielding an army of Burgundians against a bunch of English. It can get worse… Napoleonics, ancient stuff…
“as a gay man…”
wait
no, women quite like us
Factually speaking he’s one of the top podcasts out there, which includes women viewers.
Naked Gun! :O
To be fair: if only men think it’s cool, women and thus at least half of the population think it’s uncool
I mean, you can just be neutral towards or unfamiliar with something, so not necessarily.
