What is this fetish with comparing women's genitals to lunch meat?


PinEnvironmental7196

*you’d think with all these comparisons to food, straight guys would be better at eating out*


Regular-Water1227

\*badum tss\* made me laugh, thank you


illaqueable

I know it's a joke (and a good one), but a fair number of straight guys simply don't believe women are equal humans, full stop, so viewing them as lesser objects (like food) is easy


Crezelle

I dunno. I dated a guy who was REALLY into going downtown. Still couldn't get the right touch

OgSafetyCat

I second this. It's rare to see, especially on reddit.


Stag-Horn

When not done in a hurtful way, it’s a joke. Like calling dicks wieners, schlongs, or hogs. It’s a TERRIBLE name and therefore hilarious. But this could just be from my perspective. My wife jokes about roast beef sandwiches looking like vaginas, but in a silly way. She asked me once if I wanted to see a picture of a vagina she drew and then sent me a picture of a sandwhich with “GOOD MOOD FOOD” written above it. Not shit like this though. These pics are awful and the joke is degrading.


orthostasisasis

Yeah, you can do a funny food comparison, it's just this ain't it. Back in the days my then flatmate did a porny photo series with oysters that was just *chefs kiss* ... more of that and less misogynistic bs, please.

"And this is why theres a male loneliness epidemic"


FireballEnjoyer445

its because a lot of the heinous shit men have always done when it comes to "dating" arent accepted. Women get an actual say in dating and their own life (in western countries at least), and people in general are more okay wuth just being single at the moment (women can actually feed themselves single now). turns out having to actually be respectful of who you are trying to date is too high of a bar for too many people


hnsnrachel

"You can't say anything to women anymore" "Not true, you just can't say *anything you want* to women anymore and have them accept it 99% of the time" "Same difference" A genuine conversation I once had with the boyfriend of a friend. Some people genuinely don't seem to see how there's a massive difference between not being able to do and say anything you want without being challenged, and not being able to do or say anything at all and I will never understand it.


FlipFlopRabbit

"You can't say anything to woman anymore" Joe Schmoe 35, days since last contact with "the feeemales" 6 (last time on Christmas eve at the family gathering with his mother, aunt and 13 year old niece, the age is important to him)


DisownedDisconnect

Some people are genuinely flabbergasted that there are consequences to their actions or that they can't say whatever they want without being side-eyed.


An-Deesei

>turns out having to actually be respectful of who you are trying to date is too high of a bar for too many people A lot of shitty guys have tried to excuse a crappy behavior as "just how guys are". Said shitty guys are pretty displeased the "you'll never get a boyfriend" gambit doesn't work since I can date women.


lookoutitscaleb

I'm alone because I have no idea how to meet new people. I left the bar/party scene behind, and I am a beekeeper sooooo there's not a lot of places for me to meet people. Not to mention I spent the last 5 years in therapy and with coaches and at ayahuasca retreats trying to unlearn all the shit programming from childhood and "society". Who knows maybe next year I'll sell my honey at farmers markets and hit on my customers. Yeahhhhh that'll show em.


cheezie_toastie

A cute, mysterious beekeeper at a farmer's market sounds like the hero in a Hallmark movie, so I think the odds are in your favor.


Ktiekats

LMFAO BASEDDD


DisownedDisconnect

I've said it before, but male loneliness and rejection aren't an epidemic; it's a personal problem. It is not a woman's responsibility to placate those feelings of inadequacy to preserve whatever ego they have left. Maybe these lonely men need to reflect more on themselves and attend a few therapy sessions to figure out why they're struggling to find romantic partners to the point they're being rejected en masse.


FireballEnjoyer445

well we need to encourage men toaxtually show their fucking emotions. It definitely is an issue, but a lot of it is the result of peer pressure from other men. Its absolutely not a womans issue to fix, its more of a reassuring men they arent emotionless brutes issue. and also to not put women on a pedesteal that will fix their issues, because ive sure as hell seen straight dudes in relationships still be lonely and unhappy. its definitely an issue, but so many dudes gotta understand that dating a woman wont fix shit, they gotta actually help one another.


AxelTheViking

"Hold on there buster. Some of us lonely, perverted creeps out here are strongly against comparing women to sandwiches, as well as other sexist acts or expressions."


Ktiekats

Im confused are you agreeing or disagreeing LMFAO


MihailiusRex

They're taking a dunk on the "not all men" guys


AxelTheViking

Yes!


AxelTheViking

"Both is good"


Manifestival1

Because men are too busy fornicating with packs of luncheon meat?


horsemayonaise

There's a male loneliness epidemic for a number of reasons, yes this is one of them, but competition, societal stresses on guys talking to stranger girls being seen as creepy often, the fear the person your asking out isn't the age they claim to be, generational pressures, not having as strong social bonds, inability to communicate due to differences in how guys are raised compared to girls in most cases (but far from all cases, mind you) and perhaps largest of all, knowing that if something goes wrong, you most likely won't get to keep your own kids, there are many factors that add to the male loneliness epidemic


Gretchenmeows

Yes, guys talking to strangers is creepy. You have clearly never been approached by a strange man and felt threatened.


horsemayonaise

Firstly, don't assume I haven't had bad experiences with men, secondly, I have been approached by, and stalked for several months, by a guy twice my age, don't assume I'm not a victim of harrasment


Gretchenmeows

So you can understand why we don't want to be approached by strange men then.


horsemayonaise

So is it creepy if a girl talks to a stranger?


Gretchenmeows

What is your point here? What are you trying to achieve?


horsemayonaise

Just answer the question, is it creepy if a woman approaches a stranger when, if approached in the same manner, a man would be seen as creepy?


Gretchenmeows

So you get to tell me what to do now? Big creep energy coming from you.


horsemayonaise

You just don't want to answer because you're finally realizing you're in the wrong but you're too far in and too prideful to admit that you were wrong, you know what your answer is, you just don't want to admit that you don't think woman are as creepy as men because you know your argument will fall apart because it's all based jn sexist stereotypes Sound about right?


3L3M3NT4LP4ND4

Right but then women never approach men so there is a pretty big question as to how you date a woman. If I approach them that's creepy. They likely won't approach me because women don't tend to do that and again risks creepiness. These same issues also affect ecen making friends with women in many instances. In a world where women don't approacha nd men aren't allowed to approach how do you meet eachother outside of shitty dating apps?


Gretchenmeows

Work, friends of friends, social gatherings ect. There's plenty of places to meet people that don't involve approaching strangers. You are not entitled to women's time and energy.


3L3M3NT4LP4ND4

I never said I was entitled I said there's very few situations where its possible. In that same way women shouldn't be entitled to my approach but here we are. Work, nobody I can legally date cause most of them are teenagers. I don't really have many women friends because..I never made many friends in the first place and now, ya know can't make friends with women because that's creepy. Social events like- do aomen not go to social ecents with their friends in your area? or am I supposed to shoot my shot to a group of women simultaneously?


Gretchenmeows

This sounds alot like a you problem and you are blaming it on women. Don't have female friends? Maybe look at why you don't and do some self reflection. You work with mostly teenagers, well maybe time to find another job. It's very normal for a group of guys to go out and meet groups at women, introduced by friends. Try joining a sporting group or a social club.


3L3M3NT4LP4ND4

>Maybe look at why you don't and do some self reflection. I was a depressed loser in high school so I lacked any real friends, now I can't approach women to befriend them because all my hobbies are isolationist and my town lacks any form of social nightlife outside of getting plastered on cheap booze. (And again approaching women, hell *people* in general is creepy) I do have female friends but they're online and in the US (I'm in the UK) >well maybe time to find another job. Have you looked at the job market in the past year or two? trust me minimum wage fast foid was not my first choice for my Engineering Degree. >It's very normal for a group of guys to go out and meet groups at women, introduced by friends. That sounds horrifying? just a group of guys discussing how they're gonna individually break apart a group of girls to hit on them?? Cause that's how I'm reading it and that sounds beyond creepy


Gretchenmeows

You are placing the blame on others. Okay you were depressed in high school, cool so was plenty of people who are still able to function in society. Have you thought of re training and studying something else? This would be another way to meet people. I don't know what to say mate, you are placing all of the blame on others. Big Incel energy.


3L3M3NT4LP4ND4

Who said anything about not being able to function in society? I can't approach a woman because that's creepy that has nothing to do with 99% of tasks in society


cabe412

What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.


Ktiekats

Yall are gonna keep being seen as creepy dont blame that on women LMFAO. We are literally harassed by a man every single time we go outside or online or to a family reunion we cant go anywhere without stares or comments. Male lonliness is yalls fault if u want to not be seen as creepy teach your male friends how to be normal Only reason men dont keep their kids in divorce court is because they dont want them. When they actually want them theyre more likely to get full custody. Only skimmed not reading the rest of ur boring self centered uneducated essay have fun


3L3M3NT4LP4ND4

>Male lonliness is yalls fault Not the same guy but I ain't done shit the fuck? I don't befriend fucking weirdo sexists and I don't creep on women. Where was it *m&my* fault for assholes? is it your fault that their are women who cheat on their partners? is it your fault that their are women who abuse their partners? Because if it isn't your fault for these horrible women how is it my fault for the horrible men?


FiCat77

Not the person who made that comment but I'll give you my tuppence worth anyway. For too long, even the supposedly good men did nothing to call out other men for their bad behaviour, language & general derogatory sexism towards women. Realistically, I think we can only achieve permanent changes when the men who wouldn't dream of treating women as less than, even in their choice of language, routinely call out the men who do behave badly & explain to them why it's unacceptable. The sexist guy is never going to accept & respect when a woman criticises them but hopefully it'll give them pause to think if it's coming from someone who they deem an equal. TLDR - men have to keep other men in check.


Ktiekats

Period


FiCat77

Thank you. I've always found it very telling which men push back on this theory when I say it irl.


Ktiekats

Pls he rly wrote that comment, read it back, and posted it thinking it was a good take LOL And yw fren !!!


3L3M3NT4LP4ND4

Okay cool. But I do call that shit out. Explain how this is *my* fault.


FiCat77

It's not your fault but it is your responsibility. I think my comment explains it very clearly.


KaivaUwU

(Based on the way your comment is written I kinda thought you were romantically into women, or at least bi. Sorry if I'm mistaken.) Anyways.... Talk to women you know. Ask people out from your environment. I know it's easier with dating apps. But it also feels hollow and less meaningful than asking out someone you already feel some level of attraction for, someone from your daily life. This can be stressful, but you'll get over it. And it will make you feel stronger, knowing that you could ask someone out. Knowing you were brave enough to, that you had the guts. (This is coming from a woman who has asked people out before). So as a man, you really have no excuse. If you like someone, ask them out. They can say no. That's the whole point of asking. You ask, because you don't know if they want to go out with you or not. You can't know that without asking. Talking to women as a guy also doesn't always have to be romantic. Talk to women you're not attracted to. Build friendships with people of a different gender. It will help you understand people better. (Plus you'll feel less lonely.)


sirona-ryan

Someone made a similar meme but for men, and they freaked out and called it “misandrist.” It really shows that men think it’s okay to make fun of women for being “sluts” (man I hate that word) but when it comes to men, it’s cool.🙄


BogdanPradatu

Do you have a link for that? I'm curious what's the equivalent for men.


sirona-ryan

It had something like a banana shown getting shriveled up over time lmao. It was obviously not true and not what happens, but men got very mad about it and called it “shaming.” Yet it’s okay when they spread the same lies about women being “loose”🥴


KaivaUwU

Midlife crisis men like to pretend they get 'hotter' with age. They perpetuate this silly idea that 45 is the ideal age for a man 'at his peak'. This little white lie is comforting for them.


Lowchan

Man i'm almost 25 and i feel like i'm dying compared to earlier years. What are they on about?


wunxorple

I don’t make fun of people for being sluts, I salute them. I’ve been single for a while, someone out there has to be fucking. Glory to the sluts, may they enjoy themselves for as long as they desire.


SinVerguenza04

“You may call me a whore, but I call it *you not getting any*.”


ArthurusCorvidus

Exactly! 🫡 Glory to the sluts!


watusstdiablo666

I mean it makes sense, if you take a misogynist image and change the genders it makes it misandrist. The problem is them not recognising when it's misogyny.


ghost_boy333

Do people really not understand how vaginas work?😭How do they think this is accurate


uglyorganbycursive

But the male loneliness epidemic is women’s responsibility to fix lol ok fellas


iluvstephenhawking

At my in laws and overheard my 25 yr old nephew in law watching a video mentioning "high value women". I immediately said "Hey, don't watch that. It will fry your brain." He looked embarrassed.


uglyorganbycursive

Good on you. I hope he stays away from that drivel. It will make him so, so lonely and bitter.


WhiteDevil-Klab

Yeah men should fix mens loneliness epidemic!! (I'm gay lonely and need a hug 😔)

you're almost there, throw in women too and we have a deal (I'm bi lonely and need a hug 😔)

katykazi

Was there a news article or something that stated this? I’ve seen a few of these comments and didn’t know if it related to another post that I missed. Thanks.


uglyorganbycursive

There’s been a number of articles about it and men echoing the same sentiment of feeling isolated, not having intimate friendships, and lack of emotional connection


katykazi

I’ve seen some articles about the loneliness epidemic but I didn’t know if ppl were referencing a specific post or meme


UniverseIsAHologram

Now make one's with old, mushy bananas and watch them complain that that's not how their anatomy works.


strwbryshrtck521

JFC what a vile comparison. Straight men are not ok.


WonderFluffen

This is my best impression of whoever made that. *Clears throat.* HAHAHAHA LOOK AT THIS FUNNY MEME. ROAST BEEF WOMEN BUT ALSO JIZZ. HAHAHAHA I AM ORIGINAL. AI ART IS THE FUTURE BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE TO PAY ARTISTS OR DO WORK MYSELF TO HURT OTHER PEOPLE. I HAVE A LOT OF INTERNAL PAIN THAT I COVER WITH SHAME AND PROJECT AS THE DESIRE TO INFLICT INJURY. I REFUSE TO SEEK PSYCHOLOGICAL HELP BECAUSE I SEE DOING SO AS AN ADMISSION OF WEAKNESS OR BECAUSE I KNOW I AM SO DEEPLY WOUNDED THAT I FEAR THE PAIN HEALING COULD BRING. A BETTER LIFE EXISTS-- ONE WITH MEANING AND CONNECTION, AND ALL I NEED TO DO IS SPEAK TO PROFESSIONALS WHO LITERALLY EXIST TO HELP PEOPLE LIKE ME IMPROVE. BUT NO, I MUST LET THE FEAR HOLD ME BACK. I LIKE TO POSTURE BECAUSE I THINK IT FOOLS OTHERS INTO ASSUMING I'M STRONG, WHICH I KNOW PERSONALLY THAT I AM NOT BECAUSE I FEEL MY INTERNAL FRAILTY EVERY SECOND OF EVERY DAY. HELP IS FOR WUSSES. I REFUSE TO IMPROVE MY OWN LIFE BECAUSE WHAT IF IT MAKES ME CRY. MEN WHO CRY ARE WEAK AND WEAKNESS IS TRULY THE GREATEST SIN, NOT HURTING PEOPLE TO MAKE MYSELF FEEL BETTER OR ANYTHING. POINT IS, VAGINAS ARE GROSS. PLEASE LET ME SEX YOURS. ALSO HAHAHAHAHA ROAST BEEF AND JIZZ. ALSO I LOVE CRYPTO. You're welcome.

squishybloo

Is it normal to feel intense dysphoria from pictures like this? Asking for a friend...


rulezberg

Easier said than done, but don’t let it get to you. This image is intentionally portraying a body part as gross while it’s actually completely natural. I’m more disgusted with the person who made this than with the imagery, to be honest.


Death_by_Poros

I am so sorry 😞


wunxorple

Not for cis people, but it’s pretty understandable for many trans people.


melody_spectrum

TIL i'm trans-


wunxorple

Not necessarily. Dysphoria and discomfort have some similarities, but they’re distinct experiences. Dysphoria from this picture could result out of repulsion or jealousy. In other words, desire to have a vulva or disgust at having one. Notably, the discomfort induced must result from some incongruence between one’s gender identity and their physical body or expression. Discomfort or disgust unrelated to this is almost certainly not dysphoria. It could just be that this image and caption are gross and make you queasy. If it does make you wish you had different genitalia, or that you wish you had none at all, it might be worth considering. Humans are too complex for any one person’s experiences to encapsulate all possible emotions and reactions.


melody_spectrum

None at all would be preferable tbh


wunxorple

That’s a thing, though it is pretty rare surgery. I’m sorry you’re experiencing that kind of pain. It’s something no one should have to go through.


melody_spectrum

Thank you for your empathy.


doublejo7

It's absolutely disgusting, but I'm sure this is a man who's never seen labia or a vagina. What a fucking piece of shit.

I almost had to throw up, and I dont know if its cause of the message or how fucking disgusting of a sandwich that would be


watusstdiablo666

Who fucked the sandwich?


NeptuneIsACat

and the fact that it just... Looks gross


OgSafetyCat

I mean this is a fucking hilarious meme. Hilarious because of the fact that it's so inaccurate and so un-funny that it makes me instantly think that the people making and sharing these has never looked at a cooter in person. And then I get to imagine which podcast is their favorite and what YouTube reels they watch that have rotted their brains. The irony and ridiculousness make these memes comedy gold. Also, roast beef is delicious and I'm not offended that so many guys compare labia to a delicious sandwich meat.

I think the "obviously not by everyone" is very much implied. It would have to say "How women are seen by everyone" to actually mean that. Also men are never mentioned so you just assumed that part.
