We were curious – what truths are actually fiction about women?
Indirect Communication
“I’m not saying they can’t be, I’m not even saying the majority don’t fall under this category, but personally, indirect communication goes right over my head.”
“Also, men are just as capable of being passive-aggressive. I live with a man who will slam doors, stomp around the house, give me the silent treatment, say nothing is wrong only to snap at me over something small.”
Multitasking
“We’re all good at multitasking. Bro, I can barely do one thing at a time.”
“Research has shown that nobody truly multitasks. Some are just better at pivoting between tasks more efficiently.”
“Yep, my view of multitasking is that it’s a great way of doing more than one thing worse and slower.”
Chore Prowess
“‘Women know chores better.’ Nope, I suck, and many women are good only because they are taught.”
“‘Women know chores better’ is spoken by lazy adult babies who want to pass off their responsibilities to their partner and not get in trouble for it.”
“‘Women know chores better,’ but because society taught them that and not because of their femininity.”
Shopping
“All women love shoes. And diamonds. And shopping.”
“I absolutely hate shopping for clothes. Always despised it. Couldn’t care less about shoes, either!”
Baby-Making
“That just because our bodies are designed for it, we all want kids of our own at any given time of our lives.”
“Kids are a lifetime commitment, and not everyone wants to have that! And it’s still OK!”
“Or if we don’t want kids. When I say that, people look at me like I killed their dog. ‘I don’t need a baby to validate my existence.’ ~Lana Kane.”
Unsolicited Pictures
“That we want to see a pic of your privates. We don’t.”
“Honestly, sending an explicit pic to me is the same as sending a pic of a weird bug. I’m literally never going to think it’s hot.”
“I’ve never understood why guys who send them think that will get a woman going. Like, they’re weird-looking and it’s not something you take a quick look at and be like, ‘Oh yeah!’.”
Marriage
“I got told that I was good-looking, so I must be really picky to be single. Dude. I’m tired. That’s all there is to it.”
“If we’re single, there’s something wrong with us.”
“After hearing all my married friends complain about their husbands, they all comment about how lonely I must be.”
Stereotypes
“That we are either a girly girl, tomboy, gamer girl, or some other stereotype when we can be all of them or none of them.”
“I am athletic, lift weights, am very good at makeup, can cook, went to fashion school, and am the breadwinner of my family. You can’t put me in a box.”
Objectification
“I hate the ‘big pro tip’ that women are people to guys. If you treat them like people and not objects, you’ll date more women. Why do you need to be told that?”
Dog Size Matters
“That they only have pet cats or small dogs. I saw that a few times online. That large dogs are men’s pets. That’s so weird and wrong.”
“Lots of us women like big dogs because 1) they’re adorable, and 2) they’re protective.”
“One of my favorite features about my 75 lb pit mix is I don’t ever feel nervous about going running in the dark anymore. She even makes me feel safer about living alone.”
Bad Boys
“Ah, yes, because I definitely want to be with someone who does questionable things and treats people badly. Where did that myth come from?”
“I like nice boys but in bad boys’ outfits.”
Emotions
“That we are more emotionally intelligent and intuitive than men. I am definitely not empathetic and don’t like dealing with emotional people.”
“Women are ‘more emotional’ … ever see a man watch sports or get told he’s wrong about something?”
Maternal Instincts
“Some women might, but I think it’s heavily a social construct where girls are taught to play with dolls from a young age, then bear the brunt of housework and child-raising.”
“I’m bad with children and feel no motherly instincts toward them at all.”
“My mother expects me to pop out grandchildren for her, and that’s an absolute no from me.”
Homebodies
“We’re all maternal homebodies. Not all women want kids. Not all women want to be homemakers.”
“I am a guy, and I would love to be a homemaker. Provided my future partner makes enough to support us both. We shouldn’t be putting men in boxes either.”
Golddiggers
“That we all are horrible cheaters that only care about money. I want to grow old and enjoy my life with my dogs and S.O.”
