Literally I’ve never understood why people (especially men) get judged for being short

Yessss give me my Piña Colada and shut up!

I had a guy recently ask me if it was girly of him to drink a fruit cider. I said "Do you enjoy it?" Yes, "are you a girl?" No, "Then it's impossible". Besides, I drink whisky and couldn't tell you the amount of people who've made an obtuse comment. F them, drink that Sea Breeze, umbrella and all!

Same goes for non-alcoholic drinks.

Dislike beer. Drank it for a while just because it was expected but then said to hell with it and started with coolers and such. No regrets.

Or not drinking at all.

I think its super attractive when my husband orders 'girly' drinks because they are yummy (to him) and he doesn't give a poo what people think. We have gotten some interesting looks because I am 100% a scotch girl so they always try to give him my drink. :P

this used to confuse waiters. We'd order a whiskey on the rocks and a tequila sunrise. Imbeciles would always bring the w/r to me and the t/s to my girlfriend.

The issue is If it tastes so good you attempt to drink more booze.

I can't understand bars that will say "no girly drinks," like do you know how much more money you'd make if you sold something that tasted like capri sun instead of bread???

Exactly, you do you!

My favorite drink is called a PainKiller. Works too.

This I never understood. I like a good cocktail, and I'd get ragged on by male and female friends alike. Sorry I'm man enough to like what I like in public? And for the females asking why I'm drinking something "girly"...what's with the self-own??

"I would drink beer, but I can hold my liquor. So I'll stick to the hard stuff, wusses."

I sometimes get funny looks when I'm at the park with my own kid. Majority of men are not pedophiles and woman can also be them... So yeah.

Where I work, it used to be old school men, tradespeople, manly men. It has changed over the years. People in general, even the "old school" men now feel more comfortable talking about their mental health. This is a good thing.

This is so true! Men should be treated the same respect as talking to a someone of the same gender as a woman does!

All of which are jobs that men do, some quite famously so. Really silly to think it is effeminate when it's a hobby.

Pffft, I took it all, then took my holidays right after it. Wasn't just my wife who made the baby.

Dominating side of Manhood. Something not good or bad to say.

Most of me is always ready for sex. But the body, unfortunately, is not a democracy.

That's what a wanker would say :)))))) Joke aside, don't waste water for taking 30 minutes showers.

Everyone is different and experiences emotions in unique ways. We should all be able to express that how we see fit as long as we are not hurting or hindering others or ourselves. No two people experience emotions the same way. So who can say what is right and what is wrong.

AND there is no urine around the bowl after.

We who appear strong and silent are more often timid and terrified.

Same, tired of trying to fit into the boxes of "you have to have x at that age" Live your life the way you want and can.

I use to go for massage. Yes it make me feel good for muscles.

This is where the wife needs to speak up and call out how much they are doing. And be sure to express gratitude - just because it is expected for people to step up doesn't mean it should go without appreciation.

I'm a father of 3 - all past the kindergarten era. Some of the very best, and most popular pedagogues was the men - they had an awesome take on the kids, played with them very different than the female pedagogues, and was loved by the children. However they were forced to work under crazy conditions, could never be alone with a child, not change a diaper. I sadden me that the law suspected them, so they had special rules... They were the best!

Sure but from women's perspective any man can be a threat. The evolutionary cost of being on guard all the time is smaller that being raped / killed / kidnapped. We don't like that, it's mentally exhausting but this is the reality.

does it count for women too?? i'll turn 40 next year. i want a convertible. not a mid-life crisis, just can finally afford it, and i'm tired of driving a minivan, momma wants to drive something fun! :)

I've unironically worn certain sex toys under my clothes because they prevent this. I swear someone should invent a bra for balls

Women have been awful to my hubby in the past, cheating on him, being violent towards him etc. I admire him for not becoming bitter, though he'd have every reason to. We talk things through so there are no trust issues, luckily I understand myself enough to explain why I sometimes act the way I do. Boys and men have often treated me like I'm less than and I'd say I'm more bitter at times than he is.

And nobody ever considers that maybe their parents need support and not the other way around

This is me. It's really draining to have a long draw out conversation about something I apologized for and want to get over.

If somebody judges you for giving your daughter a happy memory can unkindly f**k off

Oh my god. A common occurence.

True - you don't have to be judged for something what was created before your time. But you have the responsibility to change things now. Just not to think that women are lesser is unfortunately not enough for a change. Work actively against patriarchic structures whereever you can!

My husband has an insulated Hello, Kitty lunch bag that he carries proudly. I worked a corporate job that I loved. I was the VP/Operations assistant and for Christmas one year he gave me a hot pink lunch box (with thermos!) with Mickey & Minnie Mouse at a 50's style diner with a card that said "remember not to take yourself too seriously". Loved that guy.

being a woman who doesn't want to be around kids, nor do I like kids, I keep getting put into position of having to be around them in social gatherings because "it's a woman thing". Hate it

It's either flattering or creepy - depending on how the guy looks. Being judgy based on appearance is something both genders do. (In reference to the red flag "How a man treats ugly women")
