As someone who happy stimms a lot, I hate people who gender stimming. Like, say “GIRLS WITH AUTISM” and show a woman happy stimming, then say “VS. MEN WITH AUTISM” and out some unfunny video of a middle aged guy being stupid
@@super_manul1167It’s an autism thing. Stimming is something we do (involuntary movements) in response to strong emotions (including happiness) and as a coping mechanism. I was relentlessly bullied for it as a child
As an afab, I could tell you, being stupid goes both ways. But in all seriousness, why is a coping mechanism gendered? Like I’m more of a “hot topic stereotype” but I really like pink things when I’m stressed because it’s relaxing to me for some reason.
Yeah I stim like crazy when there’s tension or an argument. Frustratingly it can sometimes make it look like I’m gesturing to “go away” or “screw off” or “talk to the hand” or just being dismissive. Even my parents who know me and know about my autism and how it impacts me sometimes take it the wrong way and I have to clarify I’m just stimming. For me, when it’s tension based stimming, it often means a lot of erratic hand motions, hence it looking like rude gestures or being dismissive sometimes. I also struggle achieving the right tone a lot. I can understand tone just fine usually, it’s just my own tone I have a hard time with. I can’t really tell if I’m achieving the tone I want or not a lot of the time, which all too often leads to something innocent sounding much meaner and more aggressive than intended. It’s especially difficult with things like sarcasm where the tone I want is so very specific and doesn’t have as much room for failure. Because of this, I have a tendency when being sarcastic to lean waaaay too hard into it and go to the extreme to the point it’s impossible to even understand me just because I wanna really make absolute certain it’s got the appropriate sarcastic tone. I can understand fine, but expressing is the issue.
My only thought for the gendered pool doors is that they did go through locker rooms at one time but then they remodeled and never swapped the doors out.

Brother, the pick up sticks and dig holes thing is completely gender neutral. Like, I took my favorite stick with me to college, and there's nothing better than sitting in a hole you dug yourself and letting it fill up with water so you can pretend it's a hot tub.
100% this! Never been to the beach before but my favorite thing to do as a kid was to dig a little trench and use the hose to make a river through my backyard!
14:57 Not only did she have completely non-functional breast shapes on her shell, but she also had a super long facemask like it was a ponytail. The character was named Venus De Milo, keeping with the renaissance art theme, but where the male turtles were named after artists, she was named after a painting making her a subject instead of actor. I get most people don't know female renaissance artists, but there were many. I'd have gone with Artemisia after Artemisia Gentileschi (I watched a movie about her in art school, so the name stuck in my head).
I'm thinking that she's also named Venus based off the Greek Goddess of lust (might be of Love, feel free to correct me there. It's been awhile since I've read up about Venus so I could be entirely wrong here.)
As a Search Engine Optimization Specialist, I can assure you that anyone posting "GIRLS" or "BOYS" in titles isn't really gendering stuff. Thing is, when looking for items, the titles are the MAIN SOURCE used as keywords and BOYS/GIRLS are words used a lot by customers. This isn't a seller issue, the issue comes from the website itself. Lot of words are banned as keywords for a reason and genders could become part of them, but it isn't the case at the moment and are worth putting in titles.
Because if you put too many keywords, it backfires by making the title unreadable, makes the product look cheaper and makes it unclear what the targetted audience is. Most websites also put a limit to the amount of characters you can put as keywords, so using SEO tools you can analyze the market and choose the right ones for you targetted audience. The website also tracks the incoming traffic and if a majority of females show up because you've written FEMALE, it will be more susceptible to be shown to other females. If you mix'em up, your targeted audience becomes broader and a common rule of thumb is that talking to everybody means talking to no one.@@WiseKayeoss
@@WiseKayeoss Because if the potential customer is explicitly including "for " in their searches, it seems likely they might then subsequently be put off by the title also containing the words "for ."
Question. So why is this specifically something that happens in English and/or the western world? Here's the title of a listing of fidget toys on my favorite shopping site here in Taiwan.

Like all items on online shop stores here in Taiwan are a shotgun of SEO key words. If this is a search optimization thing and not cultural thing, shouldn't the gendering be international? Like, do we have vetted data that directly correlates requiring "boys" or "girls" as key terms to higher traffic? Could it be that it is just something that people first gendered "just because" and later became a self-fulfilling prophecy?
as a female who loves big sticks and has wanted to be an astronaut for most of my life, I was gutted to find out this way that I can't because I'm not male 😢
My condolences! I'm sad too - I didn't even know i wasn't allowed to happily find nice sticks and take them! I must be lucky nothing bad happened to me there!
According to these standards I'm much more of a "guy" than a "girl" based on everything here. I have always had a deep fascination with sticks, I take them home and decorate my apartment with them _(and rocks, I love rocks and have a decent sized collection of just... Nice rocks I've found)._ I *LOVE* dinosaurs, always have and always will. The only setting I like pink in is when I dye my hair neonpink. The "Batman-spa" speaks to me on a level I never thought possible, Batman is A-MA-ZING! When I was a kid and teen my dream was to become an astronaut, archaeologist, professional football player _(or "soccer" as Americans call it),_ a firefighter or a war journalist who traveled to warzones and wrote, filmed, photographed and reported what happened there _(I base this comment on the coloring books, none of the "girl" ones - on that cover - were jobs I ever wanted when I was young)._ And don't even get me started on that "movie recommendations" post. OOOUUFFFHH!!! That one just made me wanna puke. And, on top of everything I've already mentioned I'm Bisexual, and according to that post only men could be Bi. So, I guess I'm a man now. *Fuck.* This entire thing makes me so fucking *angry* that there are people out there who's making it harder for kids and teens, and even adults, to be accepted for who they are and what they like. I'm lucky to have parents who were *very* anti everything that's just pointlessly gendered and they have always let me choose how I want to dress and look and what I wanted to do when I was a kid. But there are so many kids out there who aren't as lucky as me, and that makes me truly sad.
I love that so much for you, Tessie! I can envision my own apartment decorated like some kind of beautiful outdoor sanctuary going from your description of sticks and rocks there. ^^
@@nataliehurst5924 Sooo, because my interests align more with what's SEEN as typically "male" interests, and has been since I was a fucking child, I'm a "pick me girl"? Please. You obviously missed the entire point behind my comment - I am pissed off that these things are still gendered. I'm born in 1990, and I had hoped shit would be better by now - but obviously they ain't. And comments by people like you are making that PAINFULLY obvious.
I've heard the chess thing explained as "Men tend to dominate women in chess because men are more likely to take the risky play" which still doesn't make sense to me. If they're on equal footing, but the men take the risky play, shouldn't the women be able to see through that? Wouldn't it still be okay for men and women to compete in chess?
It's a bit more than that actually, the male brain just understands chess better. Much like the female brain is better at social interaction, the male brain is better at analytical thinking. So for these style of games if you had a woman with a male brain (trans-woman) they would likely dominate the competition. Since this is a well researched state of affairs and has a lot of statistical data to back it up, I would not consider this one pointless, rather it is required for fair play.
So I've seen this gendered chess a few times lately so I did some research to see if what the reason is. The intention of female only leagues is to encourage more women to play.Women tend to play less chess, so less get to tournament level. Only one woman has ever reached to the top ten in world by official rankings. Another interesting reason to keep them gendered is from a study that put players against each other in online games. When the women didn't know the gender of their opponent, they would win about half, so not really a skill issue. But if the woman was told they're playing against a man (wether they actually were or not) they would play more passively and less aggressive, and would only won about 25% of the time.
@@Ishlacorrinactually, it's been proven that trans people have brains matching their gender rather than their sex, so a trans woman should be on roughly the same level as a cis woman, no?
lol my favourite thing about those stim things is that they're not really that effective on ADHD kids, they're more effective on autism, and sometimes even entirely undiagnosed people. This is coming from someone who has ADHD, has ADHD friends, and gets entirely distracted by fidget toys, especially when others use them, because they make noise, which is like the number one most distracting thing for most ADHD people I've talked to. The majority of the time things that help are like balls of blu tac that you can squish. Or just a pencil each to their own I know but I've talked to a lot of people and this seems to be the general consensus
Heyooo, same! I know a LOT of people with ADHD and I myself got quite heavy ADHD aswell I *hate* fidget toys if I'm supposed to work It doesn't help me concentrate at all But it is fun when I'm not doing anything school related
“Barbie movie for men” I think that’s already just the Barbie movie, tbh. It was primarily my male friends that got the most hyped for it, talked about it the most, and had a boys’ night going to see it together. Also Phelan Porteous/Phelous has a video series talking about each episode of that Ninja Turtles show (and also pointing out the weird regional censorship). It is INSANE! Like…. I cannot even describe it. You have to either watch the show itself or watch his videos about it to really understand just how insane it is. Side note: the 4 OG turtles are all named after famous artists but when they meet that girl turtle, who has been living in China and going by a Chinese name her whole life, they decide to literally rename her and not only that but they name her after a PIECE of art (Venus, after the famous sculpture) rather than an art*ist*. So that’s a whole new level of objectification AND steamrolling over her culture all in one! Like…. that’s pretty messed up, guys!
6:34 it's common view in Polish grocery stores (here netto) that there are plenty of single bananas detached from the bunch. Customers rip off only one banana "i need 4 but there is 5 in bunch". Those bananas are often left to its fate (single bananas are poorly teared apart - squished or missing the bottom part of the peal) , they rot and land on the dumpster. Which is very not ideal for store. (I'm skipping food waste part) The sign says "don't leave bananas alone, they don't like to be lonely, reduce food waste" it promotes not to detach bananas.

Ladies' writing desks were legitimately a different kind of desk into the early 20th century. They generally were small desks set up more for correspondence/writing than for work or study, were commonly more decorated, and the later ones (like the example) often also had a mirror incorporated into the design. I have one, which I got mostly because I think the woodwork is beautiful.
11:55 Cis male here. I have more pencils and pens than I know what to do with. I sort of collect them as a semi-practical hobby. If I see a pencil or pen unattended anywhere, it’s automatically mine by default.

i mean to be fair, there was also jennika who used weapons. i actually did like the concept of venus using chi magic but eeeeehcn TNM did NOT do a great job with it. but i have heard that she's in the IDW comics and written better (i havent and never will read the IDW comics because i already know my heart wont be able to take it)

Okay, for the men's'/women's pool entrance, this is from a bygone era, and usually only appears on rather old indoor pools (we had one in the smallish town I learned to swim in) and may be more common in Mormon communities. Inside the building, you'll likely find a rail, or mountings, that would allow the pool to be divided with a temporary divider. This was for ye olde timey 'decency'. It would allow married men (and boys too young to marry, but otherwise of "that" age) and married women (and girls as noted) to swim without allowing strangers of the opposite sex to view their bodies. It would be removed for mixers of unmarried men and women of marriageable ages, or for public swimming for those that don't hold those beliefs. some places continue to use the divider in order to give privacy to groups that book part of the pool by reservation, such as for parties.
11:02 my parents usually go to sleep near the river in a small town lost in the mountains. I usually prefer to stay at my house in the city (my family in that town is loud as hell so I feel alone in the middle of nowhere) One time a year ago more or less, my mom came home with a HUGE stick, she just took it with her bc it looked nice, but it's been several months in the floor and I sometimes hit my feet with the huge stick I literally get hurt, you can't imagine how big and cool it is ngl
even as a girl, i kinda get the stick one. ig because they have like cool shapes or patterns or something? seeing that one reminded me of a time my brother found this tall staff-looking stick on a hike and didn't want to part with it. i'd say it's just because some sticks look cool...
I’m a 25 year old woman and you can bet your last penny that if I see a big stick I’m gonna be walking around like Gandalf with his staff and I will be taking it home (and maybe decorating it so it looks even more like a staff)
Actually the perfume one has a point it's just worded weird: it wants you to put perfume in places that naturally have a lot of body heat and blood vessels close to the skin because those places sweat and smell stronger. Also, around the neck and jawline is a place where people's noses tend to naturally end up if they hug.
I have the exact same backpack shown at 1:46. And when I bought it, I couldn't tell if it was for men or women. It look unisex-like to me anyway. And on the website, there were only photos with women wearing it. Strange.
The fem ninja turtle is Venus (Named after Venus de Milo). She was their sister but she was only in TMNT:TNM and the crossover with the Power Rangers. She was never shown or even mentioned in any other adaptation, as far as I'm aware.
For the "finding cool sticks" thing, I think the "female" equivalent would be collecting cool shells and rocks you get from the beach. Half the time you forget about them and keep them in a jar, other times you use them in crafts. I don't think its specifically a gendered thing, I just think we as humans like collecting little trinkets we think look cool.
There's also a for men tax. Whenever there's a product category that's traditionally more frequented by one gender there will be a product being marketed to the other gender with a hefty fee for it
I'm a woman with two sisters, no brothers, and we grew up playing outside. Now we're all adults, and we still get a little bit excited if we find a nice stick. (Edited for better punctuation)
8:57 Your infamous soon-to-be hospitality technician has come to explain yet again! A blanket should be 20cm longer on each side than the mattress, regardless what type of mattress you're using. A queen size mattress is 150/160cm x 200cm if I remember correctly, so the mattress must be 190/200cm x 240cm. The sizes shown in the video don't make any sense at all, not only for the gendering, but also for the sizes existing in the first place. Thanks for coming to my TED talk!♥️
11:14 Woman here. I used to find cool sticks all the time. On vacation as a little girl, I once created a club with my sister and two other girls from the campsite where we all had one really cool stick and you weren't in the club if you didn't have one. My sister and I brought our two sticks home and I kept mine for years. Don't say it's a boys will be boys thing. All of the genders can do it. It's kind of shocking how the idea that there is still somehow a difference is ingrained in our minds, no matter how 'woke' we are.
1:22 Even for km/h, that's well above most legal speed limits even for highway standards. At first I thought this picture was taken in Germany, but then figured that they're probably too prideful about their own language to ever use English words in their infrastructure. The only thing that could otherwise come to mind for me is Ireland, as they're one of few English-speaking countries that uses km/h and I've seen this kind of mocking speed limit signage from there before.
10:27 my mom has to put up with my bs collection of sticks in her garage, I’ll always bring home another stick, nobody can stop me. doesn’t matter that I’m a girl, I said it already, nobody can stop me.
12:46 little known fact: in English, "he" can also be a neuter pronoun, meaning it doesn't necessarily have to refer to males. If one doesn't want to refer to someone of unknown gender by using singular "they", he can use "he" as the neuter pronoun. So, the fortune cookie did nothing wrong lol. Also, it appears to want to replicate an old style of text, which would mean the usage of pronoun makes even more sense, as back in the day, using "he" as the neuter pronoun was much more widespread, than using singular they.
I still remember learning this decades ago, when in doubt use he/him was the rule. Been done that way for so long that almost every instruction manual would use that style of language. I also remember when D&D swapped to using she/her as the default for unknown gender and it was rather jarring to read.
This used to be the case but it's deprecated now. It's one way the language has progressed. BTW the pronoun for "one" is "one". If one wants to write one's sentence using "one", one must use the pronoun "one".
Hey, girls like sticks too. I am 43 and have a small stick that I have kept for over 20 years with an assortment of other neat items because there's just something about it that I like.

@@HiddenBush64 I don’t know, but I’ll bet you there’s money involved. My guess is they’re either trying to capitalize on the trans community by pretending to care about their pronouns (similar to them plastering rainbows on everything during pride month despite being openly anti-LGBT the rest of the year), or trying to capitalize on transphobes by pandering to their whiny “only two genders allowed” delusions (despite the fact that their “for men” products are usually better and less expensive). Or possibly both at once. It’s pointless either way though, because the newer generation is starting to realize that cash and/or online money transfer is better than gift cards. Honestly at this point, I would only buy gift cards. If it was for someone I don’t like but I’m obligated to get a gift for.
12:48 it sounds weird because it's grammatically incorrect. It should be "he who waits", not "him who waits". Or it coulda gone with "one who waits" and sounded equally dramatic without the prescriptive sexism
I feel like the spontaneous activities boys do (like digging holes at the beach, playing with sticks) would be done by girls too but if a girl starts digging then the parents tell her she will be dirty/sand will get into her hair and they take her away to wash her hands. If she picks up a stick, she is told it is dirty and dangerous. Parents find it weird if a girl plays with dinosaurs, action figures and toy cars. They are weirded out if their precious little girl does not play with dolls. The same way how scared they get when their boy wants to play with dolls. It is so sad... I wish we would just... raise all kids the same way without shunning them for what they want to play. Let them be kids. Let them dig holes, pick up sticks, play with whatever toys they want without feeling ashamed in front of people. Because kids pick up on it and eventually give up their favorite toys just to not disappoint their parents. Which eventually creates bitter adults.
my parents actually raised me and my sister in a very gender neutral way, which I'm grateful for. I had both "girls" and "boys" clothes, I had dolls and toy cars, my parents never told me "no, that's for boys". I still turned out trans (afab non-binary with a strong desire to have a male body), but that's a whole different story. sadly, no matter what the parents do, their kids will always pick up gender norms somewhere else...I remember wearing dungarees to daycare and feeling insecure because I thought I "looked like a boy".
0:30 They are actually not for the same set of places (if those names are any indication). The HIM card has Footlocker on it, HER doesn't. HER has Vrl Grl on it, HIM doesn't. Which is just plain stupid (and maybe even misleading).
The gift cards are actually slightly different, only the first 4 shops are the same, I don't think that is good or useful, but it does explain the separate cards
10:56 as a girl when I was younger and me and my younger brothers would go to the part would would get various sticks and carry them and stuff, taking them home, play fighting, remarking how one looks really like a gun, pick up branches and such. It’s not just guys, it’s people with passions for simple things in nature that can be fun.
either the stick thing and the hole thing are a lot more universal than some people wanna admit, or I have a whole lotta awkward questions to ask some of my acquaintances. my guess is the former.
No I think this is universal. There are something about sticks, digging holes and the male gender... As a woman I don't get it, but the joy some men get out of it is amazing so more power to them.
@@VoidStaresback A stick can be so many things when you look at it the right way. A sword, a spear, a bow if it's the right shape, a staff, a dinosaur bone, a magic wand. And if it's strong enough, you can dig holes with it. Basically it's the ultimate outdoor toy and also a pretty interior decoration

I get most people don't know female renaissance artists, but there were many. I'd have gone with Artemisia after Artemisia Gentileschi (I watched a movie about her in art school, so the name stuck in my head).
I'm thinking that she's also named Venus based off the Greek Goddess of lust (might be of Love, feel free to correct me there. It's been awhile since I've read up about Venus so I could be entirely wrong here.)
As a Search Engine Optimization Specialist, I can assure you that anyone posting "GIRLS" or "BOYS" in titles isn't really gendering stuff. Thing is, when looking for items, the titles are the MAIN SOURCE used as keywords and BOYS/GIRLS are words used a lot by customers. This isn't a seller issue, the issue comes from the website itself.

Because if you put too many keywords, it backfires by making the title unreadable, makes the product look cheaper and makes it unclear what the targetted audience is. Most websites also put a limit to the amount of characters you can put as keywords, so using SEO tools you can analyze the market and choose the right ones for you targetted audience.
The website also tracks the incoming traffic and if a majority of females show up because you've written FEMALE, it will be more susceptible to be shown to other females. If you mix'em up, your targeted audience becomes broader and a common rule of thumb is that talking to everybody means talking to no one.@@WiseKayeoss
@@WiseKayeoss Because if the potential customer is explicitly including "for " in their searches, it seems likely they might then subsequently be put off by the title also containing the words "for ."

Here's the title of a listing of fidget toys on my favorite shopping site here in Taiwan.

Here's one of a shampoo where the thumbnail has a woman in it:

Again, no gender.
Like all items on online shop stores here in Taiwan are a shotgun of SEO key words.
If this is a search optimization thing and not cultural thing, shouldn't the gendering be international?
Like, do we have vetted data that directly correlates requiring "boys" or "girls" as key terms to higher traffic? Could it be that it is just something that people first gendered "just because" and later became a self-fulfilling prophecy?
as a female who loves big sticks and has wanted to be an astronaut for most of my life, I was gutted to find out this way that I can't because I'm not male 😢
Welp, guess you're a man now. That's just how it is.
My condolences! I'm sad too - I didn't even know i wasn't allowed to happily find nice sticks and take them!
I must be lucky nothing bad happened to me there!
A female who loves big sticks. Did you think about that before writing it? Lol.
@@AIHumanEqualityWhy are you dirty minded , why must she think about what she says she likes, not everything is a sexual innuedo
@@Shelkie104 Maybe you can remove the stick from your butt to give to her since it seems pretty big.
According to these standards I'm much more of a "guy" than a "girl" based on everything here.
I have always had a deep fascination with sticks, I take them home and decorate my apartment with them _(and rocks, I love rocks and have a decent sized collection of just... Nice rocks I've found)._ I *LOVE* dinosaurs, always have and always will. The only setting I like pink in is when I dye my hair neonpink. The "Batman-spa" speaks to me on a level I never thought possible, Batman is A-MA-ZING! When I was a kid and teen my dream was to become an astronaut, archaeologist, professional football player _(or "soccer" as Americans call it),_ a firefighter or a war journalist who traveled to warzones and wrote, filmed, photographed and reported what happened there _(I base this comment on the coloring books, none of the "girl" ones - on that cover - were jobs I ever wanted when I was young)._ And don't even get me started on that "movie recommendations" post. OOOUUFFFHH!!! That one just made me wanna puke. And, on top of everything I've already mentioned I'm Bisexual, and according to that post only men could be Bi. So, I guess I'm a man now. *Fuck.*
This entire thing makes me so fucking *angry* that there are people out there who's making it harder for kids and teens, and even adults, to be accepted for who they are and what they like. I'm lucky to have parents who were *very* anti everything that's just pointlessly gendered and they have always let me choose how I want to dress and look and what I wanted to do when I was a kid. But there are so many kids out there who aren't as lucky as me, and that makes me truly sad.
I love that so much for you, Tessie! I can envision my own apartment decorated like some kind of beautiful outdoor sanctuary going from your description of sticks and rocks there. ^^

Istg if someone says "pick me girl"
@@nataliehurst5924 Sooo, because my interests align more with what's SEEN as typically "male" interests, and has been since I was a fucking child, I'm a "pick me girl"? Please. You obviously missed the entire point behind my comment - I am pissed off that these things are still gendered. I'm born in 1990, and I had hoped shit would be better by now - but obviously they ain't. And comments by people like you are making that PAINFULLY obvious.
Ok
I've heard the chess thing explained as "Men tend to dominate women in chess because men are more likely to take the risky play" which still doesn't make sense to me. If they're on equal footing, but the men take the risky play, shouldn't the women be able to see through that? Wouldn't it still be okay for men and women to compete in chess?
It's a bit more than that actually, the male brain just understands chess better. Much like the female brain is better at social interaction, the male brain is better at analytical thinking. So for these style of games if you had a woman with a male brain (trans-woman) they would likely dominate the competition. Since this is a well researched state of affairs and has a lot of statistical data to back it up, I would not consider this one pointless, rather it is required for fair play.
That kinda sounds like bullshit, like are u gonna use that argument to deny wonem getting into science and shit? Weirdos
So I've seen this gendered chess a few times lately so I did some research to see if what the reason is. The intention of female only leagues is to encourage more women to play.Women tend to play less chess, so less get to tournament level. Only one woman has ever reached to the top ten in world by official rankings.
Another interesting reason to keep them gendered is from a study that put players against each other in online games. When the women didn't know the gender of their opponent, they would win about half, so not really a skill issue. But if the woman was told they're playing against a man (wether they actually were or not) they would play more passively and less aggressive, and would only won about 25% of the time.
@@Ishlacorrinactually, it's been proven that trans people have brains matching their gender rather than their sex, so a trans woman should be on roughly the same level as a cis woman, no?

I think that’s already just the Barbie movie, tbh. It was primarily my male friends that got the most hyped for it, talked about it the most, and had a boys’ night going to see it together.
Also Phelan Porteous/Phelous has a video series talking about each episode of that Ninja Turtles show (and also pointing out the weird regional censorship). It is INSANE! Like…. I cannot even describe it. You have to either watch the show itself or watch his videos about it to really understand just how insane it is.
Side note: the 4 OG turtles are all named after famous artists but when they meet that girl turtle, who has been living in China and going by a Chinese name her whole life, they decide to literally rename her and not only that but they name her after a PIECE of art (Venus, after the famous sculpture) rather than an art*ist*. So that’s a whole new level of objectification AND steamrolling over her culture all in one! Like…. that’s pretty messed up, guys!

it's common view in Polish grocery stores (here netto) that there are plenty of single bananas detached from the bunch. Customers rip off only one banana "i need 4 but there is 5 in bunch". Those bananas are often left to its fate (single bananas are poorly teared apart - squished or missing the bottom part of the peal) , they rot and land on the dumpster. Which is very not ideal for store. (I'm skipping food waste part)
The sign says "don't leave bananas alone, they don't like to be lonely, reduce food waste" it promotes not to detach bananas.

Ladies' writing desks were legitimately a different kind of desk into the early 20th century.

Okay, for the men's'/women's pool entrance, this is from a bygone era, and usually only appears on rather old indoor pools (we had one in the smallish town I learned to swim in) and may be more common in Mormon communities.
Inside the building, you'll likely find a rail, or mountings, that would allow the pool to be divided with a temporary divider. This was for ye olde timey 'decency'. It would allow married men (and boys too young to marry, but otherwise of "that" age) and married women (and girls as noted) to swim without allowing strangers of the opposite sex to view their bodies. It would be removed for mixers of unmarried men and women of marriageable ages, or for public swimming for those that don't hold those beliefs.
some places continue to use the divider in order to give privacy to groups that book part of the pool by reservation, such as for parties.

Actually the perfume one has a point it's just worded weird: it wants you to put perfume in places that naturally have a lot of body heat and blood vessels close to the skin because those places sweat and smell stronger.

For the "finding cool sticks" thing, I think the "female" equivalent would be collecting cool shells and rocks you get from the beach. Half the time you forget about them and keep them in a jar, other times you use them in crafts.

What's stimming
12:46 little known fact: in English, "he" can also be a neuter pronoun, meaning it doesn't necessarily have to refer to males. If one doesn't want to refer to someone of unknown gender by using singular "they", he can use "he" as the neuter pronoun. So, the fortune cookie did nothing wrong lol. Also, it appears to want to replicate an old style of text, which would mean the usage of pronoun makes even more sense, as back in the day, using "he" as the neuter pronoun was much more widespread, than using singular they.
True, its just random lefties denying facts
I still remember learning this decades ago, when in doubt use he/him was the rule. Been done that way for so long that almost every instruction manual would use that style of language. I also remember when D&D swapped to using she/her as the default for unknown gender and it was rather jarring to read.
It's kind of like that in Spanish, where "kids" is the Same word as "boys" (due to every word essentially being gendered)
@@SeedYum no, "he" has to be used in the objective case (him), because it comes after a preposition
This used to be the case but it's deprecated now. It's one way the language has progressed.
BTW the pronoun for "one" is "one". If one wants to write one's sentence using "one", one must use the pronoun "one".

I feel like the spontaneous activities boys do (like digging holes at the beach, playing with sticks) would be done by girls too but if a girl starts digging then the parents tell her she will be dirty/sand will get into her hair and they take her away to wash her hands. If she picks up a stick, she is told it is dirty and dangerous. Parents find it weird if a girl plays with dinosaurs, action figures and toy cars. They are weirded out if their precious little girl does not play with dolls. The same way how scared they get when their boy wants to play with dolls.
It is so sad... I wish we would just... raise all kids the same way without shunning them for what they want to play. Let them be kids. Let them dig holes, pick up sticks, play with whatever toys they want without feeling ashamed in front of people. Because kids pick up on it and eventually give up their favorite toys just to not disappoint their parents. Which eventually creates bitter adults.
my parents actually raised me and my sister in a very gender neutral way, which I'm grateful for. I had both "girls" and "boys" clothes, I had dolls and toy cars, my parents never told me "no, that's for boys". I still turned out trans (afab non-binary with a strong desire to have a male body), but that's a whole different story. sadly, no matter what the parents do, their kids will always pick up gender norms somewhere else...I remember wearing dungarees to daycare and feeling insecure because I thought I "looked like a boy".
