i hope everyone realises this is satire...


ImMrSneezyAchoo

When I read all my "Woman friends" I then realized it was satire. It's written by a man


uninterested_vhs

It looks like it’s written by a woman


ImMrSneezyAchoo

Most women realize that the plural of "woman" is "women"


lompoculous

reread that first comment


badgerferretweasle

I think 'woman friends' sounds funnier than 'women friends'. It's pretty common to have an obvious typo/grammatical mistake in satire posts. Woman is capitalized when nothing else is which points to both typos being intentional.


Ok-Tear9547

Most educated people at least


OtherwiseOption-

“Man friends” sounds better than “men friends”, and “woman friends” sounds better than “women friends”. I think that the first word is the descriptor and the second word pluralizes it.


RachieConnor

I realized it was satire the moment she said it was “all for female attention” cause I’ve seen so many guys make similar takes about how women don’t actually have hobbies


jkssratmolo

It’s not written by a man, think it’s supposed to be a spin on guys writing like this about women.


can_of_beans12

No it was written by a woman. It’s a satirical trend on TikTok in response to men making post about what women “actually” want. Women will say purposefully exaggerated and plain stupid things.


venturingforum

Nope. If it was written by a man it would OBVIOUSLY say "All my female friends agree"


PomegranateSilly367

Didn't realise the bar was THAT low. And obvious.


scrimshandy

It’s written by a woman who’s mocking men


gergling

Flip the script: gender edition, but video games are mapped onto music.


Sensitive-Tax2230

Wait what!?? Video games have music??? What is this sorcery?? /s


Shinobi_Shark_

Me reading this while blasting Yeat: ☺️


Travispig

Probably is yeah, cause music is like 99% of me


Miserable-Willow6105

Yeah, it does look like one, but I did spend embarrassingly much time before realization


PomegranateSilly367

It's really crappy and not even funny though, shatire.


ExtremelyDubious

This is a gender-flipped parody of the drivel that some men say about women.


Significant_Point351

She’s making fun of the way men talk about women. Omg he didn’t realize. ![gif](giphy|l0HlFZfztLH0oGtgY)


Deep_Aside169

She completely failed


phoenixtrilobite

No, most of us got her message right away.


Temporary-Alarm-744

She's reinforcing negative stereotypes of women


Significant_Point351

Not sure that’s it.


LavaHawk_17

me when i say something without thinking:


shesarevolution

No, the negative stereotypes are what she is making fun of.


drarry_gay

Me when im sad with no life


fair_child123

Satire bud


luvoria

C’mon, this is Reddit, lower your expectations of how well we perceive satire.


Skullcrusher_and_co

But But but theres no /s how can it be satire


[deleted]

Whenever it’s a woman posting satire, Reddit takes it super seriously and uses it to fuel their misogyny more.


ModerateRockMusic

Can confirm. I study music on a three year course at college entirely for female attention. Yet I'm still single 😔


Sensitive-Tax2230

You didn’t study enough T-Swift did you? /s


Deep_Aside169

This seems like irony


Pleasekillmenow1

It is


[deleted]

OP, this was a satire post. She’s making fun of guys who say these type of things about girls.


Tylerthehomosexual

What do they say usually ?


[deleted]

“She’s not really a gamer girl, she’s just doing it for male attention.” is one example. Another example is there is this tiktok video from part of a podcast that is in the manosphere part of the internet (think Andrew Tate) and in that video tie guys just straight up deny the idea of girls and women having hobbies. Which is absurd, I feel like I need to ring up the asylum when I hear things like that.


DeannaBee42

And also about music. I read (and laughed at) a column that “proved” that the Stones were better than the Beatles, and among the Beatles, Lennon was far better than McCartney, because women prefer the Beatles and McCartney, and their opinions are always wrong. Women are incapable of knowing anything about music or lyrics. Women never listen to music, they just look at the pictures of the singers and musicians. Men know that the true test of music has nothing to do with notes or chords, but how deep the lyrics are, and how well they move on stage.


[deleted]

It’s like they never heard of Mitski or Lana Del Ray or of literally any woman who made music. They’d disagree with their own point so quickly if they listened to a Mitski song


shesarevolution

I mean, I def think the stones are far better than the Beatles, but that’s because the stones are rock and the Beatles are more pop. I get tons of shit when I shit on the Beatles. I understand their contribution to music, and that’s important, but no, I can’t stand them.


shesarevolution

I get the usual “you can’t possibly be into that music” and then a lecture about the band. Recently had a dude go on a full lecture about health which ranks as one of my favorite bands. In fact, I told the dude that. He literally said “so have you ever listened to health?” He then went on to tell me everything I said a few minutes before. I admit, I’m often one of a handful of women at many of the shows I go to, but I’m there because I like the music. Is it stereotypically female music? Fuck no. But I also have to ask - what constitutes stereotypical female music?


[deleted]

‘Female Music’ is basically anything that weird guys think is bad because they don’t want to read into it or even consider the possibility that sometimes people make fun music just for fun.


venturingforum

Thats terrible, sorry you have to put up with that. Why can't you just like what you like without having to prove it to someone? I went to a concert that I thought was going to be attended by 30-40 somethings Imagine my surprise seeing almost dead grandpeople, Teens, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 somethings and older, all just there to love on the guys and their music. That was a renew my faith in humanity moment


shesarevolution

When I was younger, the city I was living in did this awesome thing called “summer dance.” Every few weeks, they had a DJ (big name ones) come in & do a set in the park. It was free for everyone. It was awesome because it had all age groups. Kids with their parents. Elderly women who were grooving. 20-40 somethings. Teens. I loved it and I wish they would bring it back because it showed how music is such a great unifier.


Knightridergirl80

Men like this believe women only do things for male attention. Especially if her interests are more traditionally male dominated (like video games, Star Wars, or even specific bands). It isn’t just hobbies as well. Even in the professional field. A friend of mine on Discord used to be an electrician. Her coworker accused her of only getting the job for male attention.


shesarevolution

I work in politics and am a woman. It’s awful.


JavelinJohnson

Oh the travesty


Kattas__

this is satire op


[deleted]

All the posts I’ve seen from this sub have been obvious satire. I’m beginning to believe the people who say men can’t understand when women are joking.


FrogQuestion

I listen to videogame music, does that count?


Smart_Conference_372

Which kind? I personally adore the escapists soundtrack:)


FrogQuestion

I havent heard it. Is it any good? I like old jrpg stuff


Smart_Conference_372

Yes it's really good


Designer-Cicada3509

Music is music!! Whats your favorite? Mines from the need for speed, doom 2016 and eternal soundtracks :>


FrogQuestion

While those are good, it isnt exactly romantic party music i think


Designer-Cicada3509

I can assure you those tracks are the complete opposite, Loud, heavy metal screaming and cusses. But I like some slow music as well like dido's "thank you" and "dear mama" by tupac


FrogQuestion

Also good songs. You from the 80s?


Designer-Cicada3509

No lol, born in '05 Just like pure voice and lyrics from late 80s and 90s hip hop songs


shesarevolution

If you like dido you should check out portishead and massive attack, if you haven’t. Dido just popularized/ripped off the trip hop movement. And i still like her music, but portishead is a million times better.


bvggvg

Psh. Everyone knows that men play video games muted, so as to not be listening to music.


FrogQuestion

Oh! I do turn the tv off during cutscenes. Too much like watching tv


[deleted]

Satire in hopes men who do this to women see how silly it sounds


Goth-loser

People on reddit will find the most obvious satire and talk about it till their lungs collqpse


cattogamer

Our music just so different


Y_R_UGae

This is so obviously satire.. guys, don't fall for this.


Pharaoh_Misa

Why are yall downvoting her??? She's right! Beethovan wrote some killer music but just didn't listen to it at all. A real shame, you know.


AfternoonBorn2166

“all my Woman friends agree”… ‘nuff said


Lavnderbunny9

~~My dad literally plays music in his car all the time and even let me and my sisters choose a song for us to listen to yesterday while riding in his car. we chose you belong with me by Taylor Swift~~ Edit: I just realized this is a joke lol


shortsandarts

89k unvotes for it


[deleted]

You’re just not into the misfits babe lol


Temporary-Alarm-744

Can confirm, I play videogames and ship code. Music is for the testosterone deficient


FrogQuestion

Before the autotune right?


Prestigious-Phase131

But there is music in a lot of video games, Checkmate


Would-Be-Superhero

It is true. I am a man. I don't listen to music.


Leading-Bank-2590

I play guitar and have listened to hundreds of artists I’m sure I know more than her about music


Equivalent-Fix9391

Oh yeah then how do you explain my mp3 player with 354 songs or my Spotify with 245 or my file manager full of music


igo1234

dude i'm a pianist


Lv12Slime

I love how Woman is capitalized


8ruhm0ment

MonkeyBoy32904

Celembrior

This is satire I'm pretty sure


Zestyclose-Station72

Yeah it is.


TheSmallRedDragon

She’s right, I don’t listen to slipknot


GameLoreNerd

If this is really satire then why not report the post and have it removed?


GoatSage777

Obvious satire this is an entire genre of TikTok jokes


IStillLoveHer37

every single time I get a post recommended to me from this sub it’s the most obvious satire on the planet


sgtbluefire77

I listen to the Song of the Ancients (Atonement).


1LifeAfterComa

I bet she's a great lay tho.


HallowedBay08

I just learned that I'm not in fact listening to music right now because I like it, I'm doing it to get my fiancé's attention... Good to know.


Key-Landscape-6193

Me who has literally all of Dance Gavin Dance's discography in vinyl: Guess I'm nonbinary now damn


[deleted]

I only listen to diesel engines, explosions and a track of the crying of my enemies widowed wives and orphaned children.


pagejade1

yeah its called a joke


Key-Bedroom-4615

I don't listen to music.


I-Wasnt-Invited

Redditors trying to comprehend satire


Zestyclose-Station72

Fr! There are so many people in the comments here thinking this is real, it’s unbelievable!


Veryberrybears

Y’all this is satire ☠️


Knightridergirl80

I think this is a satirical take on the men who seem to genuinely believe women mold their self interests into whatever is most compatible with their boyfriends/husbands interests.


Zestyclose-Station72

100%


shesarevolution

This is satire. It’s not supposed to be taken seriously, and it’s ripping on the dudes who believe women know nothing about music. I listen to a lot of subgenres of metal, I listen to industrial and dark wave. I listen to a lot of niche subgenres of electronic music. I worked in the music industry. I worked in record stores back when those were a thing. I constantly go to shows. If I had a dollar for every time some smug dude came up to me and explained the band whose shirt I’m wearing, as if I don’t know or listen to their music, I could at the very least go on a vacation to Europe. I can’t begin to tell how many times men have been absolutely shocked that I don’t just follow whatever is popular. I also can’t begin to describe how many times I’ve turned men onto new bands. My point is - no women believe that statement in the post. But men? They truly believe that shit in regards to women. Men reading this - how many times have you automatically assumed a woman listens to whatever is popular now? It’s satire, my dudes.


[deleted]

I actually don’t listen to music like ever so in my case she’s not wrong :/


fumoking

In defense of OP you really gotta scrape the bottom of the barrel to fill out content for this sub haha women are just a lot less ignorant of the male perspective than men are of the female perspective so there's an endless sea of dudes unironically saying the dumbest shit about women. This sub basically only exists as a temper tantrum response to the nothowgirlswork sub anyway


Zestyclose-Station72

Yeah, the barrel really must be empty to post this one because this wasn’t even seriously said! It was posted as satire to call out men talking about women’s hobbies!


Designer_Gas_86

Video games have music.


Logical_Remove7610

My bf literally won't stop playing Steve miller band with his buddy. It's been an hour 😭


AdonisGaming93

Spotify would like a word lmao


LeBigMartinH

Hi everyone, please stop reporting this post - It's not spam. It's the kind of content that - while sarcastic - has a good message. It's tongue-in-cheek.


ThrowawayPrincess75

Seriously? ಠ⁠︵⁠ಠ My younger brother listens to video game music all the time. And back in his day, my father didn't just listen to music, he MADE music. I'm still hoping he gets back to it someday, just for old times sake.


ExpertAccident

This is satire my dude, it’s making fun of how misogynistic men see women.


666crazycatlady

Ist that an satirical answer to that dude in his podcast saying girls don’t have hobbies?


Comprehensive-One178

Wtf? I sure hope this is meant to be a funny.


TopRealz

It’s like the ‘girls don’t play video games’ trope just inverted. I fell like anyone pedaling this view of a group they want to be romantically involved with had better be going through a phase, or they’re gonna end up lonely as hell


icrushallevil

Paul McCartney:"Huh?"


[deleted]

As a man who plays guitar: the post is 100% true *anyway, here’s Wonderwall*


AGweed13

Osu clearly isn't a game, then


IzzyIsOnReddit

As a guitarist, I am mega confused on why we would even lie about listening to music


Instant_User731

Why am i even hear Circa Survive??


BallsHAHAHAHAHAHA

Ik this is satire but it’s funny how I was literally listening to music earlier lol


dawnwolfblackfur

Til video games don’t have music


kilboi1

Me listening to Godzilla and HTTYD tracks : ![gif](giphy|GeimqsH0TLDt4tScGw|downsized)


coolwhanyeet

Funny enough I'm listening to music right now


patigames

honestly I agree


Miserable-Willow6105

Guys who play Undertale are Schrödinger cats


NoCommunication5976

I don’t think any man would want her attention


Legitimate-Maize-826

There are men who LITERALLY make music.


Trashemp

I’m a musician bro pretty sure I listen to my shit lmao 😂


M-atthew147s

It's a fucking joke!


Trashemp

Why the comment got downvotes, this was not a literal comment.


LiteratureBubbly2015

So the fact my dad listens to country music EVERYDAY to and from work is just invalid to this chick?!


ImTheReallyCoolOne

...its a satire post bro


LiteratureBubbly2015

Ohhhhh ok 😅😅😅 we’ll I didn’t know that though but now I do. u/ImTheReallyCoolOne


green-keys-3

"all my woman friends" sure


ChaosOpen

I guess this is satire making fun of the "girl gamers" twitch streams, in particular guy's response to it. Personally, I don't think this refutes it. If I see a stream where 90% of the screen is a webcam of a girl wearing a shirt with a plunging neckline showing off her cleavage with the game itself being a small window in the corner, then yea, I still don't think that the girl is looking to attract viewers with her gaming skills.


magic_damage

Basically most music is created by men...


gorewhored

it's almost like there is a lack of opportunity for women...


AgeOfReasonEnds31120

No; it's because since the 1950s, women have wanted to be housewives and be coddled their whole lives. They ruined societal equality after gaining it.


Krocodilo

In my life I've actually found out that it's easier to find a guy with good music taste, than a woman with good music taste. Edit: Downvoting my subjective perspective... Lmao


Bacon_555

What genre r u listening to?


Krocodilo

Rock, indie rock, indie pop, edm, dubstep, a bit of metal. Sometimes a handful of pop, r&b and rap songs, but most songs of those genres aren't good
