There's so many weird societal constructs about how men are supposed to behave. I have never encountered any of that shit with my friends, but that's probably partly due to a selection process where I have no interest befriending people who display toxic masculinity traits.

If you genuinely think men obsess over disgusting shit and talk about who they want to fuck all the time, maybe take a moment to reconsider a) who you're hanging out with or b) the cultural impulses you allow to shape your perception of the world.

I think the main reason men act this way is that they're trying to fit into an image of masculinity that has been imposed on them, in part through tweets such as this one.

I think people just have very different definitions of "disgusting". I thought of stuff like "hahahah the throw up because Surströmming" and not "people die in the most horrible way possible". Wtf.

Yeah, I was picturing, like, Meat Canyon or Pregnant Sonic the Hedgehog x Shrek fanart. Disgusting-haha, not disgusting-snuff. I share gross stuff with my friends all the time, because cursed shares are weird and funny.
