You can get some workout pounding that dough with your fists, as well as whisking different ingredients by hand. Bakers also got to lift that dough and put them in those ovens, and that can be heavy.

[@Elle_Like_The_Letter]

Right!!! I was never fully a tomboy but I also was nowhere near "girly"... My energy was "boyish" so I felt more comfortable with my male classmates in elementary school... Although I wished I had more female friends especially when I started to develop... As I got older I made female friends... I never got the lesbian rumors but that's probably because I always had a crush I was talking about... Either a secret crush or a celebrity... I was not like other girls (in my small town) but I didn't think that made me better... I actually hated it cuz I felt wrong... Now I love it tho... But that's after finally seeing people like me... Like actually comfortable in gender limbo... I'm a non-binary bisexual... Or "chaotically queer" cuz the other way sounds boring... Hehehe Gender is the stupidest thing humans created to categorize us...

[@Onnarashi]

@@Elle_Like_The_Letter Serious question, as a guy. Do you think gender in general is bad, even if people are happy with it? I'm mostly happy with being a man, although I wish the "man box" wasn't so narrowly defined and policed. Even though I'm generally fine with my gender identity, I do see the point of relaxing these strict gender norms placed on people. All this performative gender nonsense doesn't need to be imposed on people, but I also think it's valid if you feel like a man or a woman and you're happy with that.

[@Elle_Like_The_Letter]

@@Onnarashi gender is a social construct... Which means it changes as society evolves... The 80s there was major gender bending. Men would wear dresses just to piss people off!!!!! Men still do that. Nothing is changing about who we are just the labels... And if labels help people feel less alone then yes go go go... But so many labels are used to separate us to make us feel less than to be used as less than... I have a love hate relationship with labels... But for medical reasons we totally need a category for male and female. But gender itself was so unnecessary in my opinion... We are comfortable with what is presented to us as comfortable... My mother would walk around naked when we where younger... so I felt comfortable with nudity... until my mom thought I was perving on her cuz I accidentally walked in on her in the bathroom... I was born female fyi... So nudity became "sinful" and made me feel so uncomfortable... We start separating boys and girls as a society in elementary school... Bathrooms should hide everyone's bodies not separate bodies... Cuz this really where the gender differences get ingrained in us... Look at healthy nudest communities... I doubt people are walking around with hard ons... Cuz they don't sexualize bodies every time they see one... It's weird how many poorer countries women walk around topless and they aren't "whores"... But weirdly the societies that forces a dress code are the ones constantly sexualizing bodies... That's the main reason we separate boys from girls... Is how much we sexualize the female body... "Boys can't control themselves so girls have to cover up and be separate from the boys"... Hope this made sense... Dyslexic ADHDer...

I definitely think it should be "děti nepijí víno," that looks like mistake on Duolingo's side. The thing with dogs, that depends on grammatical case. It's "ti psi" in nominative and "ty psy" in accusative. It's like the difference between they and them. I guess that to like aka "mít rád" can be hard, because grammatical genders come into play there. "Rád" behaves like an adjective. It doesn't match the conjugation of "mít". Instead, its desinence changes based on the gender of a person (or a thing) that is a grammatical subject of the sentence in question. That is, the person about whose preferences the sentence talks. It goes: for singular, the masculine is "rád", feminine is "ráda" and neutral is "rádo". For plural, masculine is "rádi," feminine is "rády" and neutral is "ráda." Matching correct predicate to a subject is hard, it's actually the kind of thing in which native speakers make mistakes regularly.

And I still get a laugh when I hear the whole “men are logical and women are emotional” bullsh*t argument. I’ll admit that I don’t necessarily talk about my problems and expect advice or assistance. Sometimes just talking it out helps put things into perspective and also get out any emotions that are clouding any sort of judgement. There is a time and a place for logic and emotions and one often does tend to get in the way of the other, but we need both to properly function. One shouldn’t be superior to the other.

I genuinely find baking easier than cooking. Not because you don't have to be precise/exacting, but actually because you really have to be precise/exacting. I have great success in baking because I find the idea of deviating from a recipe utterly abhorrent. Any variation has a significant chance of cascading horribly, so I get very, VERY precise. And, as a result, I'll know whether or not any problem with the product is an issue of the recipe or my own failing at whatever step. On the other hand, I loathe cooking because the instructions are often deliberately vague (season to taste, bake for x-y minutes or until the center begins to bubble, boil pasta until it's soft but not TOO soft, etc...) because relatively small variations in air pressure, humidity, room temperature, etc... genuinely cause notable variations in the results of any given stage and the perceived flavor of the final product. It feels significantly more stressful to me to be cooking a meal for others as I constantly have to second and triple guess whether or not I've actually reached each checkpoint to proceed or if I've done too little/too much. My mother, on the other hand, loves to experiment in the kitchen. She is very good at and enjoys cooking. She knows all sorts of little tricks to correct minor mistakes or speed certain processes up and has long since developed her memory for all the little minor signs that vague end points for common recipe steps have been met and the general flavor pallet the people she is cooking for will enjoy. However, my mother struggles significantly with baking. Her tendency to experiment or substitute backfires on her leading to things not setting right, being undercooked, burned, etc... And it's not just her. My younger brother has her same issues with baking, but is quite good at and enjoys cooking. I think it's less that one is actually harder or easier than the other than it is that they favor different mindsets. Baking is rules heavy: do it exactly or there will be problems so only experiment if you are prepared to lose the entire dish. Cooking is rules light: if you do it exactly, there will probably be problems so figure out ways to fill the gaps and save the dish.

[@numberbirb7728]

14:07 why would you bring a pocket knife to an airport? That's how my dad got his swiss army knife confiscated by security

[@sick_0nick402]

the whole water thing is so crazy to me, like sorry i dehydrate really easily and get bad headaches when i get dehydrated, im going to take my little sips thank you very much

[@Best_Blake]

As a DND player I would like to say that boys and girls like both wizards and unicorns.

[@damejanea.macdonald2371]

Baking and cooking are not gendered, but I could see a metaphor in that baking requires hard work and rigid adherence to instructions but gets an unearned reputation of being easy, while cooking is expected to involve a lot less carefulness but some people still have very strong opinions on the results.

[@galaxybun8775]

I love your content but i think the joke with the skin care/shampoo one is the joke that men have perfect skin without trying while women have to work towards decent skin.

[@RwnEsper]

Me, listening to an endless list of Heavy Metal and horror-core (while reading a book by candlelight with my brushed hair and painted nails, surrounded by my cat and a pile of plushies): "Wow, I never realized how girly Coal Chamber is! Guess I'll throw out my studio quality headphones so I can maintain my masculine energy!" /s

[@sinnamontoastcrunch.]

17:55 correct me if im wrong, but i don't think slugs/snails are bugs? they're like mollusks or smthn right??

[@cloudyskyz2237]

Correct

[@Onnarashi]

"Bug" isn't a scientific name. It's why a spider is a "bug" but not an insect.

[@sinnamontoastcrunch.]

@@Onnarashi fair, it's just, in my experience, when people say 'bug' they do mean an insect. i've never met anyone who actually refers to snails and slugs as insects or bugs in real life.

[@pigurl3.145]

"Bug" actually is a scientific term! It's used to refer to the insect order hemiptera :D Colloquially though, people use it for all arthropods except crustaceans, plus some other animals like snails and slugs

[@sinnamontoastcrunch.]

i have deducted that! i am not smart enough for this thread!!!!

[@justella4982]

one time as a cashier a mom came up with her little kids and as i rang up the stickers the daughter said "the unicorn ones are for my little brother cuz he loves unicorns and the dinosaur ones are for me cuz i love dinosaurs!" it was really nice seeing the parents not forcing them to swap interests because of dumb gender roles and just letting them be kids liking what kids like :)

As a speed skater, I'm having an identity crisis

[@jasperhollow664]

Speed skaters are nonbinary

[@andresanguianozuniga6798]

The water bottle thing was... Why? WTF is wrong with ppl? 😂'nt?

[@USSAnimeNCC-]

Desperately trying to enforce the patriarchy my guess

[@demonidevillae]

U have such a great intro I swear no one else's hits like that

[@izzyded9207]

Man... the one thing that has helped so much when someone tells me that they need to tell me something that happened, I'll ask "do you need solutions, or do you need someone to listen". Helps a lot.

[@lothcatskilledthesith6903]

Not to be a nit-picky geek, but Death, the character, is canonically female in Marvel comics. And Deadpool in in love with her.

[@NM_Mattuz]

Fun fact about Marvel's Death, another character who fancies Death is Thanos. That was literally the only motive for wanting to wipe out half of the universe's life. he wanted to bone some bones. and I doubt Death being a guy would slide back in 1992 that well, given Thanos' motives. also Death's fascination with Deadpool is based on him not being able to die, and Thanos is super jealous.

[@potatoes-fjlafjla]

when the water bottle is mentioned at the airport but I’m still stuck of the mention of a pocket knife at airports; you aren’t allowed to carry pocket knives at airports they will get confiscated.

[@roguechemist2658]

regarding the first one; throwback to when i was a little kid and thought men couldn't do ballet (or ice skating). like it was against the natural order of things. my mind was blown when my mum told me that was, in fact, not true

[@WhiteScorpio2]

Some shampoos contain ingredients for skin care (since there is skin under your hair), so there could be a reason to use it on your face in some instances.

[@lindseycardon1917]

Jinrets and leebit just hanging in the background makes me so happy

[@RexxTheFirst]

Okay but to be fair on the fruit one… sometimes I don’t want a solution, sometimes I just want to complain 😂

[@islandlife7872]

Here in rural Canada...there are more female hockey players, than the number of figure skaters in total...so...cool sign bro.

[@t3hwaddledee]

Where is that jacket from?! It’s amazing! 😍 My style is different from yours but that would fit in my closet perfectly, lol.

[@HiltownJoe]

The Ice hockey toilet has more space, and a hanger for all the protection equipment. Easy reason why you would sepereate by sport. The goaly toilet doubles as a handycap accessible stall.

[@RPGLover87]

For more commentary on male figure skating, I'd recommend the cutting documentary Blades of Glory. (in seriousness that movie has aged way better than you'd expect because while there are some jokes about two men doing something that's normally done in a male-female pairing, everyone that judges them for it is portrayed as a moron and they quickly get over how "gay" it looks because they are doing it for the love of the sport, and if that means slamming their genitals together in a hilarious special move then so be it) Also stir-fry is the ballet of cooking because the ingredients soar through the air majestically as you toss them around the pan.

[@PurpleDuneEfa]

17:30 The fact that I checked 17 (center one not included)/25 and still hit not a single bingo 😭

[@goblin8885]

ngl, the baking being feminine thing is kinda funny cause i absolutely love baking more than i like cooking and well, im a guy, honestly a pretty androgynous guy, but a guy nonetheless

[@LaifaCanyonLurker]

3:35 baking is NOT light and sweet and i'm sure any bakers out there would agree with me. The first time i tried to bake bread with my family? It didn't turn out very well.

[@raven5644]

Oh god oh heck, I always immediately jump to problem solving when someone is venting, I just wanna help I'm autistic I didn't know it made people feel bad :(

[@felixflax19]

I always thought using water fountains is only for children, not grown ups, like at schools the water fountains were always so close to the ground

[@ouijacorn]

oh gOD the last one! People who do this: maybe your "solutions" aren't that useful and I've already considered what you're saying to me. Maybe I want a discussion and not a lecture. Maybeeeee.

[@Shane-hx4xp]

4:21 As someone who spent 10 years in the food service industry cooking is hands down easier than baking. Baking is so much more stressful.

[@justingovas415]

I'd bet the "party queen" crown is also probably more expensive too

[@littlewiseowl9858]

'Baking is light & sweet'... you ever seen Love Quinn bake? 😂

[@chaoticlittlecat]

I gotta wonder at the ice rink signs what the speed skating bathroom would be? 🤔 it's a much smaller group but nonetheless the 3rd (and to me at least, coolest) ice skating sport

[@SassyGirl822006]

"Some parents wouldn't buy unicorns for their sons". Those poor, poor boys😢. My younger son calls himself Princess Unicorn Sparkles, and has a room full of pink, unicorns, and Barbies.

[@Overseer2579]

That’s adorable

[@annawanna5995]

As for that Deadpool thing, I once did a similar thing for kicks. While designing one of my games, I thought that giving a skeletal enemy some boob bones would be the funniest thing ever and I still crack myself up when I think about it, sometimes, specifically because it made no sense. But was it supposed to be a silly punchline in that comic and not just them trying to make Death sexy and more appealing to some parts of the audience/themselves for whatever reason? I dunno, hard to tell

[@crowtriestoanimate3334]

2:18 I used to play hockey and also used to figure skate. Which bathroom would I use D:

[@auntlynnie]

On advice from my doctors, I have started using baby wash as a face wash and eyelid scrub. It’s been effective and it’s gentle on my super-sensitive skin.

[@_logan_38]

With the whole skin care thing, my brother is a bodybuilder, he has a tiktok where all he does is flex, and when I was still female identifying he was the one who taught me about skin care.

[@pennyforyourthots]

Anybody who says baking is light and sweet have never baked lol. Baking is science with violence directed at flour. Also, you can freestyle in baking IF you understand what everything is doing in a recipe. A good book for understanding this is "ratio" by micheal ruhlman.

[@TemariRain]

As a Canadian pretty much all of us grow up playing ice hockey 😂

[@HiltownJoe]

25:10 I disagree with this being bad. This one is actually positive and apple does everything right what you critcize men often do wrong. A lot of men (not all ofc) struggle with listening to someone elses, especially partners, problems without immediately jumping into fixit mode. But if you think critically about this, is it likely that he can actually FIX her office politics? In such situations the partner often just need to vent and have their feelings validated. So for the person, who tends to directly jump to fixing stuff, to ask if this is a fixing or venting situation, is absolute top notch relationship behaviour. That is EXACTLY what we see here. Mr. Apple i not assuming that Ms. Banana has the same needs as himself. Instead he asks for her needs and is willing to fulfil them to her satisfaction. This post has nothing negative, if you are seeing something negative her, it is your own bias.

[@brodieorr5393]

Women's hockey is in a great place in the US now. the NHL now has a professional women's league. its bare bones now, but hopefully it develops over the coming years. Also Women's Olympic hockey is just straight up better than the men's

[@randompotato7391]

I can't speak to how difficult cooking is, but as someone who is a baker it can be pretty physically demanding, especially when making large quantities of things.

[@RenaMoonn]

I love it how the “feminine energy” bingo card says loves bugs and then the picture is a FUCKING SNAIL

[@madmau]

22:35 Death is an established character in Marvel Comics and is presented as feminine, and generally takes a more fleshy appearance (therefore she is depicted with typically feminine physical attributes). The character is romantically pursued by Thanos, and when knowing that Deadpool was romantically involved with her, cursed him with immortality so he can be far away from Death.

[@DM-km1wm]

I speak spanish and a little bit of french, and I always find funny that some words that are femenine in french are masculine in spanish and viceversa... like, what's the point? Lol

why are a banana and an apple growing from the same tree?

Do gotta say for the prager tweet before T I ran really cold on T I run a lot warmer.

[@rinkuraku5251]

So confession here, I absolutely see baking as more feminine coded, and loved to help my mother bake when I was little, because it was a "girly" activity that she would let me do. I still like baking, but I don't like having 24 cup cakes that I then have to either eat myself, throw out, or find people to give them to. But I also like to cook too. I made a keto lasagna last Saturday for a friend who's on the keto diet. (I used deli turkey slices instead of the lasagna noodles, it came out really well.) I don't get to do that much anymore either though because I'm always running around doing things. I don't really understand why these things are gender coded though, but that doesn't stop me from having that brainbug.
