26 Women dominating the male field of condescending remarks, turning the tables, and belittling machomen: ‘guy I hated got a buzz cut and I said "love your pixie cut!" and he got MAD MAD’

For centuries, men have enjoyed a manopoly on the fine art of being condescending, and it's about time the tables were turned. Enter malicious micro-feminism—the subtle, everyday genius of women womansplaining to men how it feels, giving them a taste of their own medicine, one perfectly timed smirk at a time.

There's something deeply satisfying about watching the traditional roles do a pirouette. So, if I may humbly suggest, just like the women below do, you shut down their manologues with a compliment about their blouse. Womenterrupt them when they're bropropriating. Shepeat what they say in a cute little tone. 

Tell the male mechanic Good boy when he succeeds in fixing the tire, ask the male firewoman how short he is, and if they complain, just tell them girls will be girls, and that he should lose a pair.

Tip your male waitress and tell him he's a doll for doing a great job, demand your male landlady call a handywoman to fix the drywall, ask the male barmaid for another drink, and cheers to reversing the odds.

  • These little acts aren’t just petty, they’re performance art. They’re the perfect way to let men know what they sound like when they’re at the top of their patronizing game. It’s like holding up a mirror, only the mirror is wearing lipstick and has a PhD in sarcasm.

    It’s not about grand gestures or dramatic speeches. This is about the tiny, almost unnoticeable moments that leave an impact—the kind of moments men have been perfecting for generations, and the results are both hilarious and corrective.

    So, ruggedmen, if you suddenly find yourself feeling a bit… belittled, don’t worry. It’s just your turn.

    Beth Thomson I'll only use the word 'gals' instead of 'guys' for a group of people and if a man challenges me and says 'gals isn't a gender neutral term and guys is', I'll ask him how many 'guys' he's slept with.
