    You ever notice these memes are always framed as a man complaining about his partner who is a woman? In a normal world there would be a roughly equal amount of memes framed as a woman complaining about her partner who is a man. What can we conclude from this disparity?

    Is it that men are just more likely to whine and complain than women? No, surely this must be a case of women being uptight and not appreciating anything outside their narrow range of hobbies and interests.

    I mean, surely this woman’s failure to appreciate a complex carpentry/roofing job isn’t at all related to the fact that the carpentry/roofing industry is extremely biased towards hiring men and thus women in general have wayyyy less incentive to learn this much about carpentry/roofing unless they are just specifically interested in those things for some weird reason.

    I know its a dumb meme, and I am not singling out OP or even this meme, I just want to see more women-complaining-about-uptight-men memes.
