The number of cleaning, and celebrity snark videos I've been shown proves this is not a gendered issue...
Yup, for me it's the crochet and flower arranging videos. Every once in a while I get a cat meme which is nice.
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!
It’s a good video though.
Everyone loves Technology Connections. Also, watching Alec rant about Christmas lights every year is tradition now.
Yeah, and his love of heat pumps! :D
A female friend of mine says Technology Connections is "boy coded". Well, she is missing out
I am female and disagree with your friends. I love Technology Connections and Alec.
It's weird that people are trying to gender things like this
There is at least one follow up to that dishwasher one, or perhaps just a related one, about dishwasher detergent.
He got some pods chemically tested to vindicate his hatred of them. They scientifically do not work as well as the much cheaper loose powders. Specifically pods don't utilize the prewash, which is an important part of the machines ability to clean what's being run through.
I think he also created his own line of dishwasher detergent because of his lab results iirc
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
Fuck yeah, infodump harder!
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!
fear of criticism for having insecurities
Found your problem. If your boys won't accept you when you're having a hard time, you might just have shit friends. We all struggle with different things, there's no shame in being honest about that. A good friend will get that and have your back anyway, even when you need to vent or whatever.
You might get teased a little or something, but you shouldn't really be afraid of that either if you know your friend actually does give half a shit about you.
Funny how you went right past the woman in the scenario...
No point. We can control ourselves, but we cannot control other people. If a girl wants you to talk to her instead of show her videos, then whatever, she can want that. If you don't want to change yourself for her, then just find a different girl.
Because the meme was literally about the dude.
Disregarding the genders, in proper communication it’s the senders responsibility to encode their message in a way that can be decoded by the listener.
Sharing your emotions are not so different, it’s still the senders responsibility to share more directly if their partner is not picking up on it.
your gender doesnt bother me one bit.
we gonna watch that 3 hour youtube essay about every goomba glitch in SM64 no matter what.

What’s masculine about it? My wife does this to me all the time.
Why is this gendered? This is just a thing annoying people do to other people.

Started watching YouTube with my SO but unlike OP found content we could both enjoy.
It ruined my recommendations and I'm ok with that.
Fun story... We were watching something together and I dozed off holding the remote. Woke up 10 minutes later and YT had auto played some car restoration video. "Sorry, I must've been tired. I'll find something else." "DON'T YOU DARE. I'm invested now. I have to see if they're gonna get this thing to start!"
My penguin.
the masculine urge to bite myself as hard as i can while a woman watches
Comment all your favorite 1h+ videos here. I'll watch them eventually
Wait, this part gets good in about 12 minutes. 😄
Yeah well I don't particularly want to watch TikTok videos about cabinet refurbishment. I also dislike the suggestion that "we should do this".
