@agedmother

My fave bit is:

women aren't known for their aggression, so try to be accepting and assertive in a gentle way

“We would very much like women to not be aggressive but gently accepting that men can be women by dressing up as one and performing the list of stereotypes outlined in this article”

You're all being very cruel and unnecessary.

But I am writing it while smiling AND gesturing, I read a wiki how on how to be a mean ‘girl’!

@Yamaya

What is wrong with that.

You're all being very cruel and unnecessary. Bunch of horrible playground bullies. Grow up.

What, apart from the fact that it’s horrendously sexist?

Oh dear, we aren't womaning correctly 🙄

🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

We could do with more of the TRAs listening to this one tbf:

“Women aren’t known for their aggression, so try to be accepting and assertive in a gentle way.” Translation: don’t send death threats to women.

What's wrong with it? It's a list of outdated and sexist stereotypes is what's wrong with it.

At last we have that elusive definition of what is a woman A simple head of clean hair is all you really need to pass as a woman

WTABloodyHell??

Is this serious???

YetAnotherSpartacus · 06/11/2021 10:47

how do I type on the internet like a woman?

You swear a lot and use words like 'cockwomble' and 'cocklodger'.

If you can't see what's wrong with it I don't think anyone here can help you!!!

As someone who thinks there's nothing wrong with it, can you explain what being feminine and being a woman have in common?

They've explicitly said men can be feminine, and women aren't necessarily, so what's the link?

IfNot · 06/11/2021 10:45

One of the questions underneath underneath is “how do I type on the internet like a woman?”
Creeeepppyyyy!!!

MonsignorMirth · 06/11/2021 10:43

"Some men have typically feminine traits, and some women have masculine features, too"
So why is this about how to do "feminine traits"? They haven't explained what that has to do with being a woman.

Is there a wikihow article on passing as a man? Shall we write one?

There needs to be a section on farting loudly, looking immensely pleased with oneself, saying 'OH DO EXCUSE ME' really loudly, burping and scratching the crotch area before going back to manspreading.

DukeofEarlGrey · 06/11/2021 10:41

It is well-known that women often gesture while speaking

WTAF. Thanks OP - I am laid up in bed with Covid and this has made me laugh no end Grin

Mycatismadeofstringcheese · 06/11/2021 10:41

“Females are known for having smooth skin, clean and shiny hair, and a clean body”

Yes all 3 billion of them. It’s amazing anyone can tell us apart.

Also could that sentence read any more like a Wikipedia page for a pet breed.

YetAnotherSpartacus · 06/11/2021 10:41

I don't whether to laugh hysterically or be enraged.

What a load of absolute twaddle.

Theeyeballsinthesky · 06/11/2021 10:38

Actually although this is unintentionally hilarious it’s also fucking engagingly insulting

They really don’t see women as actual people but just a collection of performances

AMostExcellentStick · 06/11/2021 10:38

I do… very little of this. Not sure whether I need to start following the instructions or using the men’s loos…

MajesticWhine · 06/11/2021 10:38

Hilarious Grin
Dammit I haven't shaved for weeks and almost never manicure my nails. Never wear a skirt or heels. How am I going to pass?

HappyPumpkin81 · 06/11/2021 10:37

Oh man, I am so far from being a woman based on the article I must be a man. I think the only feminine thing I do is shower daily.

drum123 · 06/11/2021 10:36

Actually, I just tried walking by putting each leg directly in front of the other - I almost fell over (I'm not drunk!). Maybe that's what they think women do, walk in order to fall into the arms of the next available male.
