What’s an activity that was associated with one gender, but switched? (1 Viewer)

Cheerleading used to be exclusively male, but now it’s very different

Wearing makeup and high heels... I think.

I’m not positive about makeup, but heels were as far as I know

Girdles started with mainly men, then women went insane with it. I wore one for some medical issues. I didn't mind it other than sometimes it was hard to bend over and sometimes breath.

Breathing is optional

computer science was at one point considered a women's job, same with a lot of the cataloguing work in astronomy (it's also where one of my fav historical figures w my fav name got her start -- annie jump cannon)

Yep, finding this out opened my eyes to how dumb modern masculinity is. I love pink.

It’s always a bit funny when people say that overly gendered stuff is just basic biology. Like to some level maybe, but you’re telling me stuff like pink vs blue and high heels vs flats and skirts vs pants are inherently that way because of biology? Then why do they switch? Did everyone just collectively have mutations that switched whether someone likes one color or another? The math isn’t mathing Or ig the science isn’t scienceing

The pink vs. blue thing is 100% marketing. So is the idea of men's vs. women's clothing. With the minor exception of bra's only because most men don't necessarily need them. That said, some men do. I wear sports bra's to work to keep my moobs under control.
Tell this guy he's not manly in his skirt (Kilt). I dare you. Skirts look so comforable.

I’m not a fan of skirts because they’re less convenient if I want to do a handstand or wherever I didn’t grow up wearing skirts and dresses, still don’t. But I get why some people prefer them

MMA cages, car repair shops, masonic temples, and homebrew clubs were male only spaces.
I also remember a time when only men played 1st person shooters. Now I can't visit a Valorant server without getting my ass kicked by streaming beautiful girls.




But I don't complain, ladies. Some of you are incredibly good!
