Being a woman in 2023 can be both empowering and challenging. That's why we still need sources of laughter and inspiration, and @laughing.chicks on Instagram provides exactly that.

This account is a space to come together and look at the shared experiences of womanhood with a bit of levity. From navigating the dating world to dealing with sexist bosses, it has us covered with their funny and relatable memes.

So let's join the account's 454K followers and take a look at what content it has to offer.

We managed to get in touch with the person behind @laughing.chicks and they agreed to tell us more about running the account.

"Initially, the page began as me creating memes that I thought were funny," they told Bored Panda. "I was working and my work is very boring and I wanted to do something more expressive. So I started creating the page and memes."

"Over time, as the page grew, I realized that there are people much funnier than me. So I started curating more and giving them credit. Along the way, I have not only supported creators but have made friends such as Nina Marie (@ninamariedaniele) and Vinny Fasline(@vinnyfasline). Over time, I got an understanding of what my followers like and more importantly, do not like, and selecting memes is now second nature."

"I found relatable memes are the ones that resonate the most. [Universal topics,] such as complaining about work, or bonding with your coworkers tend to do the best."

However, the account owner added that the platform also indirectly dictates what to post. "It really depends on Instagram, they keep innovating and changing the algorithm, and as creators and curators, we have to adapt. For example, Instagram went very heavy about a year ago on videos, but now they have come back to photos and added more value to them. So hoping to keep staying ahead of the algorithm and making new partnerships with comedians to keep the page engaged and growing."

No one’s stopping you from calling yourself a woman though? This particular woman just used a different term for her funny tweet, she has every right you do to choose what terms to use in a joke about periods

In my case, one time it was my appendix rupturing, but someone had told me your appendix was "the worst pain you've ever felt" and as a period haver, it wasn't so I didn't know

What makes me a woman? The packaging. What makes me a female? Who TAF knows. *shrugs* I don’t give a monkeys uncle what ANYONE looks like and I don’t understand some people’s need to change outer to match inner. Because the inner is who, not what, makes you, you. I think it is essential to recognise sex (for physical health) and gender (for mental health) as an entirety. I also think generalised conversations and speculations should be encouraged for freedom and learning purposes. True equity would be to respect and acknowledge everyone EITHER down to genetic levels. (Who has the resources to know 8 billion lots of genetic code, anyone?) OR to say we are (mostly) all sentient beings with a conscience and to stop effing people over because they think or act not “your” way? I am so sick of being scared to be “me” out of fear of UNINTENTIONALLY treading on toes. In trying to gain freedom, freedom is being seriously curbed in other ways and it stinks.

But don't worry, if you go to the doctor they'll almost certainly tell you it's period pains and to take pain killers and send you home. So there's that.

Oh wait until you get older. Then you can have stomach/ head pains when your period is due and vaginal pains when you are in your fertile phase. It‘s your hormones going wild. Aren‘t you glad to be a woman?

Add my dad's genes and there's also a risk of either the Silent But Deadly, or The Trombone, but most often, the Big Lips Reverberator. The pain in the abdomen goes away after, but the looks (and the smell) you get are nearly as lethal. XD

This is way above my pay grade, but "bad sushi"? I don't consider myself a 'penis owner' and sushi has never had an effect on it.

... as I recently learned here on Bored Panda University, ovarian cysts aren't much of a problem, you just got to have a guy with horse equipment to play with, and eventually, he will pop it open. I know this sounds like it's impossible, and many people will not believe it, but believe me - so goes that!

Let's not be afraid to use the proper words. Not vagina owner, not assigned female at birth. A woman. The only others description I accept is when I ask my pupils how many girls are in the classroom and they count me as one.

No kids here... Single... I can differentiate between genuine kids issue and utter nonsense parenting.. I sympathise with the former parents... We were all there as kids... What i do not understand is bad behaviour and the reason we need to adjust. Seen parents bring kids to movies which are meant for adults to understand... Why? of course, the kid is going to cry.. or throw tantrums.. babysitting can be an issue... But we are not part of your deal

Ugh, I will have full on conversations with my husband about what the plan is for tomorrow. When tomorrow comes, he will ask me what we are doing like we never spoke about it. I even do the "look at me when we are talking" thing if I want to make sure he is paying attention, but even that is hit or miss.

If state law allows (some u.S. states do have regulations around burials) most mortuaries will bury you in a cardboard box. And for cremation that is always an option. If you are worried about a service, you can rent a coffin. Much cheaper. It's wild what you start looking into when you turn 40.

If only there were cheaper alternatives that would leave about $2000-3000 difference on her account. But hey, brand!

I try to get the boys together every 6 months, all of us go out, drink and vent about our life, good mental health and all that. Honestly though, trying to organise 8 guys is worse than herding cats.

My boy picks up his two pieces of kibble, runs into another room to eat it. Comes back again to pick up 2 more, into the other room, over and over. Add the little click clacking of his nails on the floor, so funny

Last night I dreamed that I drew a picture of a man with a unibrow and went around telling people, "Look, it's DoriBROW Gray!" I have never read "The Picture of Dorian Gray" nor seen the movie. In the same dream, I drew Will Smith's head on a cockroach body, and his feet were huge noses. What is my brain doing?! (I woke up and drew the second one IRL XD )

I'm a lifelong nailbiter and I got acrylic nails put on a few months ago. It was AMAZING being able to scratch itches XD but I forgot I didn't have stubby nubbins and literally scratched welts onto myself a few times. My cats and puppy liked the new "automatic" itch scratchers on my fingers as well XD

I’m 41 :( and I recently found a photo of my biological mom when she was 44. I look like I’m maybe 30. She looks like she’s a hard-used 70. Don’t do drugs and smoke and drink, kids! XD

I dated a girl during high school once who insisted on paying for dinner, since she asked me to go there...which was fine, we were totally cool and on the same page, until I put some money down to leave a tip. Girl lost...her...damn...MIND! She made a scene, loudly reamed me out for trying to spend my money, and I got all the stares on our way out. And then we went to a movie following that, for bonus awkward! She had driven, so there was no backing out until the end of the date
