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?

I know several women who listen to joe rogan unfortunately

[-] Jericho_Kane@lemmy.org 53 points 2 weeks ago

I met a girl on tinder who believed and "teached" the goapel of andrew tate. So nothing is impossible.

Let he/she/they who has never suppressed a political opinion to a hottie throw the first stone

[-] SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 5 points 1 week ago

Oh you bet I'm throwing some boulders

[-] Jericho_Kane@lemmy.org 6 points 1 week ago

I kinda really wanted to. Not really for obvious reasons, but i was really wondering what a person like that was like. Or what her place looks like. But every sentence she wrote was like diarrhea

[-] criitz@reddthat.com 3 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Nothing is absolute, of course

[-] CarbonIceDragon@pawb.social 21 points 2 weeks ago

maybe some things so incredibly niche that only one or two people total like them, if those people happen to be men?

[-] ChilledPeppers@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago

Yes, I and my brother invented a game that only we two know how to play.

[-] AnarchistArtificer@slrpnk.net 8 points 2 weeks ago

But is it a good game?

[-] superkret@feddit.org 18 points 2 weeks ago
[-] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 42 points 2 weeks ago

Nope. Even Fortran programers hate that vile language.

[-] errer@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

Hey I kinda like it :-(

[-] someacnt@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 weeks ago

That tracks, I like fortran because I never tried it.

[-] LGTM@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 2 weeks ago

Need a purge on the Fortran courses at my uni pls

[-] Midnitte@beehaw.org 25 points 2 weeks ago

They said men, not masochists

[-] yetAnotherUser@discuss.tchncs.de 11 points 2 weeks ago

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.

[-] ch00f@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago

But only men like set theory, so…

[-] yetAnotherUser@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 2 weeks ago

This woman likes set theory because she was involved in a set theory workshop:

https://dmg.tuwien.ac.at/sandramueller/conferences/

But you're kind of right that it's not great that math is still a strongly male dominated field. There is not a single woman's name in the Wikipedia article for set theory, where I first tried to find a counterexample.

Also, you don't necessarily need set theory to arrive at vacuous truths. Logic is enough:

FALSE => [statement]

Still, I think vacuous truths are fun because they are meaningless. Especially because they have to be considered in math or else your carefully constructed proof becomes invalid.

[-] randint@lemmy.frozeninferno.xyz 3 points 1 week ago

I have no idea why you're being downvoted. Perhaps it's coming off as a bit rude to some?

[-] Crashumbc@lemmy.world 10 points 2 weeks ago

Of course not, absolutes don't exist...

[-] Nelots@lemm.ee 17 points 2 weeks ago
[-] BigBananaDealer@lemm.ee 9 points 2 weeks ago

only a sith deals in absolutes

[-] Ziglin@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)
[-] Crashumbc@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Name one (besides there not being absolutes🅰

[-] Grimy@lemmy.world 9 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Urinating standing up. Its so much messier when you're a woman and writing half your friends name in snow with it is almost impossible.

[-] Tower@lemm.ee 8 points 2 weeks ago

She-Wee for the win!

[-] princessnorah 3 points 1 week ago

When I started my transition, I always sat to pee, because standing made me dysphoric. Now I don't really care at all :)

[-] Clbull@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

Andrew Tate

[-] someacnt@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 weeks ago

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.

[-] RamenJunkie@midwest.social 6 points 2 weeks ago

Learning that language is probably too much of a haskell for anyone really.

[-] someacnt@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 week ago

That doesn't really stop people, though.

[-] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 weeks ago
[-] guaraguaito 35 points 2 weeks ago

Women can rape women — although masculine rape culture is definetly the biggest culprit behind rapes.

[-] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 weeks ago
[-] Nelots@lemm.ee 20 points 2 weeks ago

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.

[-] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 week ago

That's just something like 0.01% though, so I'd say it's negligible

[-] Nelots@lemm.ee 6 points 1 week ago

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.

[-] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 week ago

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.

[-] Nelots@lemm.ee 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I can't tell if I'm tired and missing your point, or if you misunderstood me.

I am specifically referring to inmate-on-inmate SA. As prisons are typically segregated by gender, the offender and victims would both be female in this case. Guard-on-inmate SA on the other hand is mostly male offenders as one might unfortunately expect.

[-] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 week ago

Yeah I guess I didn't think that through...

I found this source that says:

The rate of inmate-on-inmate sexual victimization [PDF] is at least 3 times higher for females (13.7%) than males (4.2%). This has been attributed to the fact that a majority of prison officials do not view female-on-female sexual assault as “true rape,” making them less likely to reprimand inmates. Furthermore, as the female prison population has grown at a dramatic rate, states have been unable to keep up. Therefore, female prison facilities tend to be overcrowded and poorly designed, making them difficult to police.

So you're partially correct but it's not because women in prisons are more likely to rape another inmate.

[-] prole 2 points 1 week ago

If it's inmate-on-inmate, and they're in a woman's prison, I think it's safe to assume that both victim and offender were women, no?

[-] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 week ago

sorry I didn't know women went to a separate prison

[-] prole 3 points 1 week ago

Fair enough... Now you do!
