I think it’s hot when my wife is into something and is explaining it to me. Even if I don’t share an interest in xyz thing, I find her fascinating, and I like understanding what she likes about a given thing.
I think she feels the same so I don’t second guess showing her something.
What's the word the youth uses? oh yeah,
Based
I made my girlfriend watch an almost one hour long video about dishwashers (I think it was by the channel "Technological Connections")
Anyway she was amazed and did not regret it!
What’s masculine about it? My wife does this to me all the time.
Content of the post aside, this is one of the worst types of guys on the internet. Celebrity avatar posting celebrity pictures. Get a personality, man
What does gender have to do with it?
Think they're just observing thst men are more likely to show you some stuff thst isn't at all interesting (fact check: true)
not true
The number of cleaning, and celebrity snark videos I've been shown proves this is not a gendered issue...
Almost like most people are willing to watch things our partners want to show us because we care about them. Hm.
Next thing you’re gonna try to tell me is they want to show us stuff because they care about us too???
I know it’s shocking to hear, but women have feelings and can love people, too!
I am pretty sure you’re making this up.
You're right, women don't exist lol
And you can then have a conversation, with a person you like. I don't know how to crochet but I know the difference between a single and a double and I can read the recipe.
Yeah! I love it when my partner shows me his interests. We once got sucked into watching an hour long video on different types of sourdough bread. It was fun!
Yup, for me it's the crochet and flower arranging videos. Every once in a while I get a cat meme which is nice.
a women
your gender doesnt bother me one bit.
we gonna watch that 3 hour youtube essay about every goomba glitch in SM64 no matter what.
You got my hopes up, but it's only 2:24 =/
That video was fire

Fascinating.
Women: Men don't know how to share their feelings.
Men: share feelings indirectly through content because it allows them to place some distance between themselves and their fear of criticism for having insecurities
Women: Gawd, I don't care!
The woman in this scenario is still sitting and watching the video though?
Not sure if the makers of this meme considered this but the woman in there is an escort/partner robot, she is designed to please him (who is also a, more advance, android himself)
It makes the meme even more sad that the implication may be that women have to be paid and/or designed to be interested in their partners.
exactly!
That's not true though.
And at the same time either aggressively or passive aggressively making it clear to him that she is disinterested in the video.
Just saying that men share their concerns and feelings differently than women. Men very often share concerns and feelings indirectly. If a guy is repeatedly sharing YouTube videos with the woman that the woman doesn't find funny or interesting, there is probably a reason the man is sharing them. An active listening woman might ask the man something like "How do you feel about this video?"
You’re reading a lot into a meme where the woman is clearly still leaning over his shoulder and watching the video he is showing her.
Why is the onus on the woman to be his therapist and drag answers out of him? If there’s trust built into a relationship, I expect my partner to be honest and forthright about his feelings and needs.
Women are not mind readers.
I'm just trying to explain the "urge" described in the meme. That's all.
Almost like the “urge” isn’t exclusive to men and humans tend to enjoy sharing our interests with each other.
the masculine urge to bite myself as hard as i can while a woman watches
