To not find the "hauk tuah" meme amusing.

It's been everywhere for the last few days. Even my DM asked about it because she'd seen it trending on Twitter and I was lost for words for what to tell her. It's just stupid and embarassing, I'm sure the poor girl is mortified about it at this point.

Not seen it but it does sound like it sums up "romance" in 2024.
Men have a lot to answer for

As a colleague (male) said at work today, how have we come from romance being "shall I compare thee to a summer's day" to "hauk tuah". It's sad IMO.

Yet the young people I work with think it is funny.

its pretty much in majority of the groups im in, someone's even put it on a custom magic card (think pokemon but magic)

My husbands sad whatsapp chat groups are banging on about this. Saddos

What a ridiculous comment. You don't have to be "prudish" to find this behaviour annoying. It's just demeaning to all women.

I don’t feel demeaned because a woman I don’t know pretended to spit on a dick- why would I? It doesn’t affect me at all

JaneJeffer · 23/06/2024 21:45

I lost a few brain cells reading this thread

Sometimeswinning · 23/06/2024 21:41

To be fair I’ve read on mumsnet people snorting coffee out over their keyboard at less funny comments.

We’re all grown ups. Assume a few of us have done it. I wouldn’t register it if I was scrolling through.

Imagine if this thread was about having her back instead of sensationalising it? Wouldn’t that be different!?

in what way does it demean 'all women'?

That's horrific I've not seen that anywhere!

Horrific? Insinuating that most men enjoy blowjobs? She probably gave the most truthful response out of everybody.

Workhardcryharder · 23/06/2024 21:28

Honestly if anyone finds that so “horrible” I’m surprised you all survive on social media

It was funny at first but now it’s getting old.

Some people will do anything for their 5mins of fame.

She didn’t do ANYTHING for her 5 minutes of fame, everyone else has made her viral

If you use social media, and many people do, then it has been everywhere over the last few days.

YouveGotAFastCar · 23/06/2024 21:22

She wasn’t asked what men love, was she? She was asked for what move men go mad for in the bedroom. Any answer to that would probably have haunted her, to be honest.

Shes deleted her own social media; though, after people identified her; so that probably says it all.

AmelieTaylor · 23/06/2024 21:20

@OonaStubbs

no it hasn't been 'everywhere'.

I only clicked on your thread because someone said they liked the other posters user name and it was 'that'. I didn't understand & just assumed it was a character in something 🤷🏻‍♀️

Im not sure what makes it so horrible. It's a bit graphic, but I'm sure you'd hear worse in any bar/club any night of the week.

TheKeatingFive · 23/06/2024 21:17

I feel bad for her. Monika Lewinsky did the deed with the actual president of the US to get that kind of global recognition. One clip on TikTok and this girl is infamous all over.

Obviously it was awful that Lewinsky was treated that way, just pointing out the differences in the world we live in now.

It won't haunt her forever. She didn't actually do anything. It was just a funny comment said in a funny moment.

Lots of prudish women won't like it because they like to think these kinds of women don't exist and they definitely don't want their men to know that they exist.

they would rather have a cup of tea

That's ridiculous 😂😂😂 I'm no prude but being filmed imitating spitting on a dick as an answer to something men would love is not something I would do, not saying she deserves any hate but making out she is someone to be jealous of is just silly.

falls within my definition of bawdy.

but you've said you haven't even seen it? and here you are all outraged. strange.

Ladylaylayday · 23/06/2024 20:09

I mean, not sure what definition of horrific you're using but also no, you haven't seen it anywhere.

Most of the world hasn't. It is popular on some SM platforms but you and many other posters on MN would have no clue because it really isn't such a big deal.

But OP has helpfully informed you all about it while seemingly worrying the girl featured would be 'mortified' by the whole thing..

Hmm, something doesn't add up there.

Yes why has OP drawn our attention to it if she is that concerned

Shan5474 · 23/06/2024 20:10

It’s all over every social media channel. I follow mainly cat meme pages and gardening groups on Facebook but I’ve seen it. It seems there must be loads of creators who use interviewing drunk teenagers/young women as content because the most ridiculous videos come up fairly frequently in reels. I think it’s generally pretty unethical
