Reminds me of someone I saw the other day poking at the "men are visual creatures" nonsense by pointing out how many men fail to be even remotely tidy in their living spaces. Helps show how inconsistent the narratives about "man traits" are.

These things are like scripts written and taught to men from a young age, which can then be called upon by the more selfish or predatory men in order to justify their actions as inevitable and normal. I must have had a decent upbringing in this way cause I've always hated gender stereotypes, for as long as I can remember. Probably helps, too, that there are some distinct ways in which my mom acts more like a stereotypical man and my dad acts more like a stereotypical woman. So I guess it was kinda self-evident there was some BS going on there with the narratives.
