    After spending ten minutes on the toilet pondering, I think „growing facial hair“ is the best counter-example I can come up with.

    Or I just don‘t know enough women who like growing facial hair.

      Not a woman, but I know an agender person who’s super hyped to get facial hair.

        Some of us were doing facial hair before it was cool…

        … And some of us started going bald in their teens and wanted beards to help cover up double chins and a tiny mouth but did enjoy a brief period of looking like white Jesus before that happened 🧔‍♀️

          Personally I come from a long line of hairy fuckers. Clean shaven is not an option because it literally grows back in less than a day. Plus I like the beard had it for decades.

          As hairy as my face is, I’m thankful I didn’t get the hairy back gene. My legs, chest and ass though, I’m kind of like a satyr without hooves.

    Look, idk about you, but if you haven’t played soldiers and tanks with a bunch of grown ass men, get yourself to a WH40k group and learn what cool is.

        Agree with the mansplaining angle. Passionate people like to explain, combine this with not being the most socially adept and voila you have mansplaining.

    Is there literally anything only men like?

    There are male biased things, ie. gaming, woodworking, wingsuiting, cimbing etc.

    but are there any things literally only males like?

      having a small penis doesn’t make anyone a bad person, all your other terms are fair and objectively bad, but how do you bot realize you are potentially hurting perfectly decent people with the last one? I know its a widespread practice and that and I am not really mad about it, but it still amazes me how the insult is still used. If someone is an abusive, narcissistic misogynist then that’s bad enough, don’t gotta go there.

      Think about your harmless bros with insecurity issues over this thing that doesn’t make them a lesser person.

      End rant, again not mad at you just a thought.

        I apologize if anything I said appears judgemental or degrading. It was intended as I personally view people that are concerned with size like someone handed a fine instrument that is concerned about the recycling value of the metal and wood. Or, someone that compares movies and songs where they focus on brevity as a primary measure of performance benchmark. I will try to avoid the comment in the future

        nor does being born with narcissistic personality disorder. It’s not the person’s fault to be born this way. Problems arise only if they refuse to be treated, because then they could harm someone

        also not mad at you

        I think the key is not “small penis”, it’s “misogynist small penis”. You can’t decide your penis (and side note, sometimes a below average penis is sooo much better to handle for the othet party than an oversize log that poses so many problems), you can decide to be an asshole though

      I think you can answer your own question. Either men will like it and their will be other genders that see the appeal or it’s an assoholic male hobby.

      I think there’s truth in it either way. Although I can’t think of many things only men like, expanding it to “anything dominated by an overwhelming proportion of men to woman” still works. I think they’re more cringe than uncool though.
