Mates, makeup ain’t for y’all. You know how you spent eight hours messing with your .bashrc or rolling for counter strike skins or whatever weirdass hobby you have? You don’t do it because you are trying to attract women - you see your friends get into something cool and you get competitive with them. That’s what it is for the womenfolk. They get their nails did and do weird ass makeup looks because it’s a fun hobby. They know that you probably don’t care about the difference between coffin and ballerina nails. But their friends do, and they want to show off, because it’s fun.

Wow, this is a wake up call. I have been wasting my time on this .bashrc file.

[–] [email protected] 31 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Time I enjoy wasting isn't wasted time ... so yeah, totally wasted on .bashsrc, but the programmer socks make up for it.

programmer socks

I know I’ve been online for too long to know if these are just nerdy socks or cute thigh highs for ricing

[–] [email protected] 11 points 9 months ago

I’m pretty sure anyone saying the phrase “programming socks” really means cute thigh highs

Powerline fonts are just fake lashes for nerds

Yeah women spend an hour on makeup before their shitty job they hate every morning because they just like it as a fun thing to do, totally nothing to do with societal pressures of beauty, it's just a fun thing most women like to do to entertain themselves at 6am when they ain't getting enough sleep as is.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Yeah you're right women only put makeup on for work and never do it cause they want to, never use colors or styles they think are pretty, never take pictures of their makeup done to show to their friends, spend 0 time in communities dedicated to discussing techniques and styles that are popular

You're totally right we all only do it cause of social obligations and hate doing it

Lady, sit down and take your mansplaining. /s

Congratulations on falling for the final step of brainwashing: denying to having been brainwashed.

AS a gay guy i can atleast tell you this dies not hold true for the gays OFC part of its all in gold fünf but we still try to look hot 4 guys

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Maybe it's a guy thing to want to look hot primarily to attract a mate, so that's why hetero men think women do everything just to look good for them.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 9 months ago

I mean, considering how widespread the hobby seems to be and how long limited forms of it have been around, I wouldn't be surprised if evolution had a hand in it even if people don't consciously perceive themselves as doing makeup for that reason. It's kind of like how people tend to get bored of the same food if they eat it too much because the same taste over and over stops being interesting, but really, that mechanism promotes a more diverse diet that covers more nutritional requirements.

Honestly i think it isn't a Gender thing and much more an individual thing thats different for everyone IMO much too much gets associated with Gender when it shouldn't have anything to do with it

[–] [email protected] 7 points 9 months ago

Wow, seems like you are the only reasonable person on lemmy. Kudos!

Users here love to hate other platforms for their hostile comments but continue to create an equally toxic environment just with a different flavor.

As long as people have fun and don’t hurt anybody, let them roam.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago

And the notion of what is looking good and bad is a result of heavily sexualized norms that are fed into girls at a young age already. In the effect women who chose not to wear makeup are facing backlash and are made to feel less confident.

So it isn't just a fun hobby. It is also the expression and often submission to sexualized and sexist societal norms.

Didn't had the fun to mess with my .bashrc, but I have to mess with the jdk-openjdk and the jre-openjdk package, which are in conflict. All help I found online didn't work.

I made a .config/shell/shellrc.
