When you see a thing mentioned and don't have a real understanding of it isn't it sort of natural to want to learn more and fix that?

It seems sort of backwards to laugh about that, and trying to stereotype it as a male thing implies that women have no interest in learning.

Some people never seem to develop a love for learning. And I feel really sorry for those people. Like, we were given the most complex object in the known universe between our ears and tons of people completely let it go to waste.

Oh my God, like who would waste time learning boring dusty old book stuff when they could be learning who's going to cheat next on Love Island or watching people on youtube gossip about other people on youtube? It's called reality tv because it's real like we are and not dumb stuff boring people wrote in books.

Yeah, most needlessly gendered things are usually in the form of “hey fellow gender sharers, do you like to do common and popular thing as well?”

It’s the gender equivalent of “[Hometown] has the worst drivers, amirite?”

If you don't like the weather in [literally all dozen places I've lived even though they had completely different climates] just wait five minutes!

It's great when you get somewhere where that joke doesn't work. If you don't like the weather here, you should probably leave, it's not changing for a few months
