      “guys” is used as a gender neutral term by many people, so “metal guys” doesn’t necessarily refer to male metal listeners only

        You know that’s not what “guys” is referring to in this context. You know that. Context is key.

            It does. Of course it does. There are… clues. I understand not everyone is capable of understanding subtlety, I have a son who I suspect is also slightly on the spectrum, but the rest of us surely can tell.

                The innuendo here is that it’s a guy talking to a “hot girl”, right. And they’re talking about this metal band that she “supposedly” likes. He’s demanding that she prove it by “naming one ☝️ song” by the band. She names a song by a different band.

                Guy says “close enough” because boobies.

                🤲🤌 Plain as day.

              He posted the “whispering girls” meme with 14-year-old Emma Watson and a text about slapping balls during sex with old men. It got removed after I reported it.

            Not at all true whatsoever.

            The way the meme is sexist is the line “Name one song by [metal band].”

            It implies that whenever a woman says they like a metal band, she couldn’t possibly just be taken at face value, and her word be trusted, because women couldn’t “possibly” like something typically associated with men.

              You’re overthinking it: “name N song(s) by $band” is a standard question asked by gatekeepers, it can be addressed to whoever regardless of gender. Not that sexists never use that line, just that it doesn’t necessarily imply anything about women in general.

                  The question isn’t the misogyny, it’s the acceptance of an incorrect answer because the person answering is an attractive woman that’s possibly sexist.

                    I’m not sure I follow here, could you elaborate?

                    It says “Metal guys”. Are they the only gatekeepers? It’s that sexist? Help me follow along your thinking. 🙏
