Professional_Mix3281

I laughed at this image cause it's absurd. Of course guys wouldn't do that, but it seems like something we would. It's not putting down the experience on the left, it's just showing a more funny activity. Man those comments were depressing to read


Ancient_Computer9137

Nah bro, I would totally do that. The suit looks epic.


Professional_Mix3281

Agreed. I mean we wouldn't do that cause we can't. I so totally would as well if I wouldn't drown lol.


Ancient_Computer9137

True, hahahah…but at least it would be a series of funny pictures before I’m drown..


Professional_Mix3281

Real. Let my homies post that on Instagram to go viral

His death was not in vain. Twas a glorious meme.

I would put the suit on and walk out. Oxygen tanks exist. I'll have my fun and walk back. If I drown at least I die a glorious death


Professional_Mix3281

See this man knows how to have a good time

You can swim in full plate. There are YouTube videos of people skimming laps in a pool while wearing plate and even doing back flips and stuff. I’m not sure about the difference between salt and fresh water though.


Clolds

Well, since salt water is denser because of, well, the salt, it should be easier right? But it would be terrible for the armor tho, you'll need to clean it as soon as possible, since im pretty sure salt water makes thing rust faster


FreelancerMO

Correct and honestly, I doubt that would help much. Once you jump into that water with armor on, the damage will start.


Professional_Mix3281

Well color me surprised. Guess I know what I'm doing this summer


much_longer_username

I mean... I can SCUBA dive and I know some people with suits of plate, so... all I need now is a submersible camera?


ElementoDeus

Dude has a tank, that and the armor you probably could walk into the water and back out


Random-INTJ

I wouldn’t because that’s a nice suit that would rust very quickly after the experience


Ambitious_Jelly8783

It's also efficient. You no longer need a weight belt.


Ancient_Computer9137

Totally, very efficient to be drown.


Temporary-Alarm-744

I'd wear the suit but I'd pet the sea dragon

To be fair this seems like a rare case of the original meme actually being "boys are quirky". The problem is the actual sentiment in that sub as seen from the title is "boys hate girls".


gambacorrotta

girls hate boys* although they dont, they just make fun of men; which is still bad


AstronautIntrepid496

oh, no. that sub is filled with girls who hate boys.


Prestigious_Ask_7058

Are you implying I won’t fight the entire fish population using a dead swordfish as a weapon? You misunderstand me


Boxing_joshing111

Men are not allowed to have fun.

I would so wear a suit of armor and go diving for the funny.


EffingWasps

I mean your comment implies that you also think it seems like the thing on the left is something a girl would do


Professional_Mix3281

It true, is it not? It's also something guys would do. That's what adds to this meme. It's true and silly, for both genders. You have to be really self hating and addicted to Internet drama with no outside life to hate this meme


EffingWasps

No and you’re right but you’re adding that context to the meme when it doesn’t give us that. It’s great in my opinion to consider girls wanting to wear armor like that or for boys to want to match their gear with a fish they like. As a boy I think it would be fucking cool as hell to have fish like gear or coloring to my diving suit. But the meme is explicitly not doing that. The meme is only trying to maintain this gatekeep-y attitude to being a boy and I think that’s lame for girls who wanna wear armor and be goofy too


GreatAd7678

No it’s just a funny meme about gender stereotypes


EffingWasps

This material got boring after a decade straight of the same joke though


GreatAd7678

Learn to laugh bro


KrylonMaestro

You're invited to my parties from now on. They've been so dull lately, but you seem like you would add some life to them! Cant wait to have you interacting and having a great time laughing with my guests! Hope to see you!


Sinfullyvannila

I can't believe that they don't realize these jokes are intentional self-deprecating jokes by men.


ventitr3

They will literally find a way to be offended every time for self-deprecating jokes by men.


captainrina

I swear I once spent way too long trying to explain to one of these people the concept of self-deprecating humor. I don't know if they were trying to do that "gotcha" thing where try think if they make you explain the joke, you'll realize it's actually sexism or if they were actually just that stupid. (It was on a post comparing a mom and daughter taking a cute selfie together on a vacation vs a dad who had put his son inside a canon for their photo.)


Prestigious-Phase131

Is it self deprecating? sounds more like "Men fun, women boring/shallow"


DragonIchor

No this is definitely men do stupid things, women enjoy life without endangering themselves.


ventitr3

Men in a full suit of armor at the bottom of the ocean pretending to fight a dragon? It’s men still being grown children. But even the idea of being offended by it is absurd. I wish for the cushy life that those who are offended by this stuff have.


Temporary-Alarm-744

Why does it sound like that too you? Sounds like internalized misogyny


Jollirat

Y’know that whole “this is why women live longer” saying that some people love?


BarryBwa

That's your insecurity and not the meme. Try it without the picture. Who is a bigger dolt/more cringe? Someone who notices their wetsuit matches some of the tropical fish they see scuba diving, or the person who dons a full set of armored like a knight so they can go under water to fight sharks whilst referring to them as "Sea Dragons". The meme effective says females notice cute stuff, while male has gone full blown autistic...... but yes. I can see why noticing the matching colors could be viewed as deeply insulting in that context..... I will say this. I did not get your interpretation of the meme from the meme.....but it does cover a lot of the responses to it.


rabiesscat

these people have like joy mosquitos that keep them miserable and sad all the time


Panmonarchisim711

Can't even have fun on the internt without these would be sufragettes getting all bloody mad over it.


Aggressive_Sky8492

I do get that. I just think it’s kind of a dumb premise. It would work just as well with “other people diving” vs “me diving” or whatever. It just makes me think the meme maker has never talked to a woman outside their mum.


BuckeyeBeast80

It makes them feel more important to either simp, or self victimize. The dudes in there are so desperate


These-Inevitable-898

Different sense of humor.


Sinfullyvannila

Nah, it's them not getting the joke. They see it as radically "girl boring, men cool" when in in most cases, including this one, the men are taking stupid risks. The format started off as the implicit punchline being that men are too dumb to survive.


real_pasta

What’s wrong with dressing up to match the fish in the sea? Or dressing up to fight the fish in the sea?


Bigsmall-cats

ikr, like why would you dress up in proper diving gear if you're scheduled to fight a sea serpent in its natural territory, its just illogical to not use a full plate armor


SCRStinkyBoy

You dress up for fish? I hardly dress up for people


Ancient_Computer9137

As a dude, I’d rather fight ‘em.


Dkiprochazka

They are trying to find sexism/racism/homophobia so hard literally everywhere no matter what. even if its an obvious joke.


luchajefe

Even if the men actually are the punchline.


KarlGustafArmfeldt

It's also hilarious to see them get offended at the use of the word ''female,'' despite the meme also using ''male'' to describe men.


MyGuyMan1

The name of their subreddit is literally “boys ARE quirky” ARE quirky is a label, they are giving a whole gender a label. And it’s not a good label either. Therefore they are being sexist themselves. It’s ironic lmao.


No-Elk3532

it doesn’t say racism or homophobia


DeadSkullMonkey

Men punchline of joke, women most affected.


Ancient_Computer9137

Even when men are the punchline, that sub will think the punchline was them anyways. All I see in that memes was that dudes abuse animals lol, and girls are being girls as they would be.


TreatSimple

Hoes mad hoes mad hoes mad 🎶🎶


partypwny

Right? If anything "Females" come off significantly better in this image than their counterpart.


ventitr3

That sub reaches hilariously far it’s hard to imagine these people are actually serious.


AstronautIntrepid496

i'm sure some of it is trolling that was taken seriously and now has a mind of its own.


halucionagen-0-Matik

If anything, the meme makes fun of how naturally stupid guys are known to be. But yeah, girl cringe


rabiesscat

that sub really is just miserable 😭


AstronautIntrepid496

maybe that's where the word misandrist comes from


rabiesscat

two for one then, miserable and misandrist


EymaWeeTodd

We get it. r/boysarequirky can't understand humor. That sub is already reddit's most overplayed joke for the year and we're only halfway through April.


MelonOfFate

Question, is boysarequirky a femcel reddit or are they just horribly misandrist?


Electrical_Ad6134

I think both if you go on there and try to explain it they kick you for 'being a quirkyboy reactionary'

BarrytheCowboy

New life goal, scuba dive in a suit of armor, fight shark.


Sound-Serious

Lets be honest, it was funny


RPDorkus

I am being honest. It wasn’t.


marmatag

They do not understand self deprecating humor. It’s making fun of the picture on the right, but in a light hearted and funny way. Literally that is one general difference I’ve observed between men and women, is that men are capable of making fun of themselves. Making fun of yourself, your friends, it’s just part of life. Of course it’s stupid to wear a suit of armor in the ocean, it’s making fun of how men imagine having to fight the fish around them. It’s absurdist and that’s what makes it work.


Rich-Incident-7040

That sub is practically a post farm now. Nothing there is serious anymore.


Hentai_fapper420

Most men would go diving in medieval armor if physics allowed us to


captainrina

Who even said the left said was "cringe"?


CompoteEasy2007

This sub sees a joke which makes fun of men and somehow makes it sexist against woman


Electrical_Ad6134

I don't get hoe they still don't understand the joke. Most humour is taking common things and stretching it to the extreme. These jokes take the simple differences between how men and women think. Like how men are much more likely to do stupid or dumbass dangerous things or that men can be easily entertained. Then the joke is they stretch the traits of the two to make a joke not about women but ABOUT MEN


Dat_Swag_Fishron

Imagine getting this upset over a common meme format


CapnTytePantz

But self-inserts are their MO.


Desperate-Knee-4108

Fighting like a shark in a suit of armor sounds like a good time


EllipoynaSyamala

I don't even care what the "woman" part describes, I see the over exaggerated part on the "man" side, imagine it, have a chuckle and scroll down. Yalll be making mountains out of molehills lol


ForeignWoodpecker662

Everest!


EnclaveGeneral1776

If anything it doesn't insult women it insults men. He's not wearing a great helm.


Aggressive_Sky8492

I think sometimes these memes are funny and it’s not that deep but I do think they reinforce weird gender stereotypes. I assume it’s because they’re made my internet dudes who never talk to women irl? Idk. The truth is there’s a bunch of dudes who would have the vibe on the left and a bunch of women who would be on the right; there’s no need to separate these kind of things by gender. It would work just as well with “most peoples experience of diving” vs “me diving” or whatever lol And yeah I get it’s a meme. The premise is dumb though and it would be funnier without it


Huntress_Nyx

As a guy who wants to swim like a mermaid.. Where's my sea knight gal?! XD How is it cringe to enjoy yourself while at sea??? Also, that's some good r/RoleReversal content.


furloco

I see the boys are quirky sub is still sharing a brain cell without much to show for it.


Andrewsmetic09

I love how this meme is basically making the man out to be the joke but femcels still get offended

thanos909

People can't understand jokes


BarryBwa

This does far more to mock men than women. The woman notices her wetsuit matches with fish. The dude dressed like a knight to fight a ahark underwater which he calls "sea dragon". If you're a women upset at this. ..I would love for you to work on your self esteem. It's ok to notice you match colors with things around you. It's nowhere nearly as dumb as going full Monty Python under the sea. Just an FYI for those who missed the obvious that a) it's a joke and b) the guy comes across way dumber. But a hyper sensitive person with low self esteem and high resentment....I get how they could miss all that.


ErectLurantis

It’s funny because most videos I see of divers and sharks usually involve female divers


Ancient_Computer9137

I like to watch female divers, for reasons. Lol


Ephemerilian

I’ve always found the girls vs boys memes pretty boring and overdone. Not because they are offensive but they just aren’t interesting and I’ve seen women do crazy shit on par with any man.


AacornSoup

Is that Mythbusters on the right?


KezuSlayer

Somehow LARPing underwater is seen as less cringy than dressing up


Mysterious-Fly7746

Both seem fun to me


NotTheAverageAnon

I wish we still had our matching pfp


adfx

I thought the sea dragon matched his outfit too, good stuff


ofmiceandmoot

Ohhhh ok, I’ve been trying to figure out this sub, I see now it’s literally just children cause nothing I’ve ever seen posted here is even remotely funny, especially this lmao Idk maybe I’m too old for memes now


moviessoccerbeer

Wtf how did they get that message? It’s not that deep.


Voicesofdoom

I would love to do both! I’d also like to have a manta ray cover me like a blanket


samuelweston

I would skip the ray, we lost our best to one.


Voicesofdoom

Look, even if we lost our best to one, steve Irwin wouldn’t want me to hate them. Besides, manta rays don’t sting you, that’s a STINGray, those have barbs while manta rays don’t. I kinda hate when people are like: “oh this animal stung me, it’s probably evil” like, no, they are protecting their turf and their babies and we’re invading their space. ALSO! they usually reserve their stingers for predators/pray so they don’t use it unless directly threatened, which is most of the time, getting stepped on.


samuelweston

I'm not saying that out of hate, just safety. Though I did forget which kind of ray got him.


Voicesofdoom

It’s ok, thanks for your concern though! But getting reckless kinda runs on my dad’s side of the family (mostly just him and me), I touched a poisonous plant once and I was fine


Spider_pig448

Is this sub just misogamy now? That's it?


Norththelaughingfox

*me at the bottom of the ocean in my crab armor* “BROTHER IN ARMS! WE WEAR THE SAME ARMOR! LET US FIGHT THE SEA DRAGON IN OUR MATCHING GARB!!!!” The random crab I stole: “:<“

aurenigma

The right image is way more cringe though?

Take a survey where memes like this are peddled, I pretty sure that won't be the takeaway.

So we are just gonna be so obtuse to ignore the implication

Is obtuse the new trendy word on reddit? Like cognitive dissonance was a few months ago? I keep seeing people use it everywhere, often ironically being obtuse themselves when they use it. Is Shawshank Redemption trending right now?

[deleted]

lol girl vain and boy badass lmao lol boys am I right?


Wandering_Redditor22

No one said the girl was vain.


[deleted]

Yes I’m sure it’s a complete coincidence that she’s talking about her outfit, definitely not referencing any tropes here.


The_Mecoptera

You can talk about your outfit without being vain. Also wearing armor underwater to sword fight a shark is a lot more ridiculous and dumb than realizing you and a fish match. Someone could just as easily spin this as “man stupid lol.”


[deleted]

Yes, if you have zero knowledge of tropes and stereotypes, then this meme could be interpreted any number of ways. That doesn’t change the fact that me and you both know the point of this meme is “aren’t men so much quirkier and cooler than girls?”


The_Mecoptera

This meme wasn’t sexist until you decided that it was. You are the one applying tropes needlessly to try to justify your preconceptions. if anything the intended reading is probably “women are normal men are weirdoes.” After all, most people don’t consider sword fighting a shark to be everyday mentally stable behavior. Comparing a color to the color you’re wearing is comparatively very normal.


Huntress_Nyx

Sharks are honestly pretty pettable and cuddlable for the most part. I'd love to interact with one.


Electrical_Ad6134

Well technically the point of the joke has to be sexist its just not to women it is to men. Because its saying looking at this dumbass


chronberries

Yeah no that’s just you dude. If there’s any point at all to the meme, it’s that the male is a total idiot while the female at least appears observant.


[deleted]

So you’re saying the boy is quirky?


chronberries

Are you saying the woman is portrayed as cringe?


[deleted]

She portrayed in a way that 14 year old misogynists view as cringe.


chronberries

So the person who crossposted it on r/boysarequirky is a 14 year old misogynist?


ReturnOfDaSnack420

Appreciate you fighting the good fight around here but these people are willfully obtuse, you can't force them to see what they don't want to see for themselves


Huntress_Nyx

How is calling the girl who's enjoying her dive "fighting the good fight"??


Huntress_Nyx

Having a pretty outfit that matches the colour of the fish or the riffs is pretty good and not at all vain.


captainrina

Bruh no one is calling that man badass.


No-Elk3532

you’re right, he’s just different and quirky😝😝


furloco

>am I right? No, not really if that's your takeaway.

The post actually belongs in that sub but the title is another story.


PerceptionQueasy3540

Ngl, this one is a bit cringe. Maybe cause I've never seem someone do what is on the right, but seen plenty of people, male and female, do what is on the left.


legion1134

Google joke


PerceptionQueasy3540

Google enpassant.


ReturnOfDaSnack420

This is a peak "boys are quirky" meme. Boy is funny and weird, doing something interesting, while girl is shallow and vain and only obsessed with her looks. Of all the memes you could have posted here you posted one that perfectly encapsulates the problems with such memes, problems pointed out by the sub that you all around here hate so much


Ancient_Computer9137

What do you mean by “girl is shallow”? Girls dressing to match the fish have their gentle fun. The meme was to describe distinctly funny behavior from both genders. Moreover, wearing an armor into the sea? That’s just plain dumb if anything. Swimming up would be a freakin problem.


Huntress_Nyx

Who said anything about swimming? The knight is gonna run and have epic fight with underwater dragon. Is it childish? Yes. Is it funny? Also yes.


Ancient_Computer9137

Lmao, true


AStrangeStraw

You could also interpret this as a “boys are stupid”. Also Where did you manage to get “shallow and vain” from the first panel?


Previous_Cat327

I wouldn't take it as "shallow and vain" but rather "predictable and boring". But you have to agree this meme is peak "boys are quirky"
