A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen

I've found that most of the time, just pick the most sexist answer you can think of, and you'll typically be right!
I really don't like gendered languages.
You'd love German – there is absolutely zero system or logic behind what word has which of the three genders.
There are some general guidelines, which hold true more often than not: https://germanwithlaura.com/noun-gender/
For example, planets that don't end with an e and which aren't Venus tend to be male
Yeah, no, it doesn't make sense:
Der Mann (the man - male article)
Die Frau (the woman - female article)
Der Junge (the boy - male article)
Das Mädchen (the girl - neutral article)
Like, come on gendered articles, you had one job.
Anything with -chen/-klein (a diminutive) is neuter.
E.g. in addition to Mädchen there is Jungchen (~"youngster") that is also neuter rather than masculine.
But there's no Mäd.
Maid. Man kann sich auch lernresistenter geben als man ist.
Alles voll logisch, stimmt. Ich geh' dann mal das Waschmaschine befüllen 👌
Are there words in German ending in -e that are not female?
Der Riese
Der Junge
Der Bote
Das Gebirge
Das Gelände
Das Ende
Thanks.
The girl one was always funny to me. "The girl ran to its mother."
