There's a hilarious Instagram account called brosbeingbasic that tries to show us what it would look like if men started making the same types of Instagram photos that many women like to create. You know, the ones where basic girls suggestively flaunt their half-naked bodies, show-off their pumpkin spice lattes and hashtag it all with something like 'blessed.' Yep, we're talking about these silly Instagram trends, to which all of the girls give in at least once.
To be fair, there's nothing wrong with being basic - it's comfortable to blend in with a crowd, but as with everything in this life, if overdone, basic can seem rather hilarious. This funny Instagram account accentuates exactly that, without actually mocking girls.
Inspired by this account, other men, also known as the basic bros, across Instagram also started parodying some of the posts they see women make most often. These were collected together by wittyandpretty.com, but you're welcome to continue the trend by adding your own funny photos and voting for your favorites!

Bwahahahahahahahahaha! Thanks, I needed this kind of humor this morning.
I seriously have male acquaintances (nope, I really don't wanna call them friends) like this! Imagine my FB newsfeed and "unfollows" :)
who sit there and look pretty. As long as you respect that, we're cool. Feminists unite!
Though this is kinda funny, there are a lot of girls who act this way on Instagram. Please respect that we are not all twittering airheads
you're missing the "I'm driving in my car making kissy lips cuz I'm so sexy" selfies
Eh. Mens selfies are way more funny. These don't look like any women I know. They missed the woman giving the bird selfie.
Hilarious, but honestly, I don't have any friends like this. They're just immature.
some peoples minds. Who the f**k cares what other people post? Get over yourself bro
You'd think grown men wouldn't mock people for what they like to post on THEIR OWN social media, but I guess high school just doesn't leave
You'd think a group of grown men didn't really care about what other people do with their lives, but I guess misogyny is hard habit to break
I love the ones that actually are guys acting like girls. So spot-on and so funny! I think @michaelguapo doesn't get it.
like Betty said I'm dazzled that some people can earn $4407 in 4 weeks on the internet . read review _*_*_*www.YelpPay.com_*_*_*
I see a reflection of an armchair and a dog in the sunglasses with a name Tom Ford on them and the wheel of a BMW. I'm scared.
When my lady friends do this, my brain spasms and I think "Hashtag THIS," but I love seeing these guys totally NAIL the narcissism!
Oh wow, this was 2 funny. I'm not going to even lie, I have done some of these shots. Lol... seeing dudes doing them is hilarious.#Busted
Funny s**t, love it! Omg I have been guilty of doing some of these shots...lol It's so hilarious when dudes are doing it...#Busted

OMG That was too funny. Girls should really take note of just how shallow their post really are.
Only the ones that make fun of themselves are actually funny. The guys with the well trained packs, are just bragging undercover
You guys are so funny, I laughed with all of your selfies ...you made my day ! P.S By the way ,you imitate us really well.
You caught them perfectly. They're all so conceited, always taking photos of themselves. I'm 70, in my day we just put lipstick on and went
We have 2 twenty somethings and a teenager and these are the things they laugh at when girls do it. They are going to luv this.
