men

We know that men aren't the only ones who throw common sense out the window, or seem to approach life and relationships with a...unique...worldview. But damn, these 22 dudes really went above and beyond to make us face palm, laugh and smile. We'll never get sick of this sh*t. If you're craving more masculine humor, these 26 manly memes are here to satisfy you where these guys may have fallen short. 

Before the internet, people would show that they were tough by maybe wearing a muscle shirt or owning a comically huge truck. Maybe they'd throw some flexes your way or pick a fight at a bar. Now, thanks to social media, dudes can make their toughness known with cringey posts that promise they're capable of messing someone up. The r/iamverybadass subreddit does an amazing job of cataloguing this specific kind of "badass." And we can't get enough of hilariously toxic masculinity.

We hear a lot about toxic masculinity these days. But what about the dudes who consistently life people up and set a good example for the rest of the "male" world? We think they deserve some respect. These posts and photos highlight decidedly positive behavior from men - men who are a breath of fresh air in a society that all too often demands stocism and macho behavior. Enjoy the wholesomeness.

Men are often deemed a mystery by women, and even some other men. They get a reputation for being cold or emotionless, quiet or unfeeling. Redditor u/RiceWota has managed to challenge these notions. By asking the men of Reddit to share the most difficult things to express to women, the Reddit user revealed that a) men love doing absolutely nothing and b) they have a shit ton of feelings. The more you know.

We're back with another big batch of memes for your bored brains. This batch is filled with a whole lot of weird, dank, and nerdy gems that pretty much anyone can appreciate. Especially when there's nothing better to do. 

Communication is truly the most important part of a relationship. The way you speak to your partner will certainly make or break a partnership. The texts, while all pretty hilarious, give you a little bit of both sides of the spectrum. These texts exist to remind you of what to say and what you should never, EVER, ever say. If you like these textual tidbits, give @weshouldbreakup a follow on Instagram. Their account is perfect.

Relationships and marriages certainly have their ups and downs. Along with the intimacy and friendship come stupid fights and a lot of sass. There's also some hilarious inside jokes and those stereotypes we all pretend aren't true. These tweets definitely paint a pretty accurate picture of the glamour.

Let's just get this out of the way: gender stereotypes are rarely ever 100% accurate (or accurate at all for that reason) because, you know, every single person on planet earth is different and unique in their own way, regardless of gender. That being said, we've been thoroughly enjoying these memes that've been all over the internet lately, and we think you will too.

You don't need to be a feminist to understand that these dating standards for women from the 1930s were incredibly harsh and sexist. Women were clearly held to much higher standards than men were! My how the times have changed...

We're not ones to believe all stereotypes, but these 'Boys vs. Girls' memes are still pretty damn entertaining. They play on various stereotypes of how teenagers act, from high school locker rooms to puberty. We've been seeing them absolutely everywhere on the internet lately, so we wanted to treat you lovely people to the best ones out there!

Ladies, it's totally okay if you just came here to check if you do any of these things! In fact, it's likely that we all do some of these things from time to time.

We have to give a big shout out to The Toast for throwing together this amusing gallery of women having a terrible time in classical paintings. And if we're being honest, it seems that times have not actually changed that much throughout the years...

A couple tweets that boldly generalize men have inspired scads of parody memes over the last week or so. The original tweets, which claim that "no guy has all three" and then lists three positive qualities, were downright serious. The tweets they've inspired? Not so much. Twitter jokesters have applied the format to mock men in more creative ways, or to represent a character or aspect of their chosen fandom. A tweet listing lyrics to Full House is a great example.

There's a stereotype that men are extremely clueless when it comes to flirting. Obviously this isn't always true, and often times women are just as clueless (guilty as charged), but the guy in this particular story is certainly not helping that stereotype! 

Honestly, we think he should've known that something was up as soon as she mentioned that she needed help with her bed of all things!
