‘Women in men’s fields’ TikTok trend revealed

tiktokThe ‘women in men’s spaces’ trend highlights the universal experiences of women dating men… and it’s more than just one thing. A little eye opening.

ICYMI, the trend has seen scores of women (nine million, actually, and counting) collectively sharing the toxic relationship behaviors they often experience from men, and satirically turning them on their head as if they’d behaved the same way. path. All for Nicki Minaj’s soundtrack Anacondano less.

In one he writes: “He sent me a paragraph explaining how he felt and I replied ‘I don’t know what he wanted me to say.'” Another said: “When I started punching the ground and gouging my eyes out for cheating.”

Another big hit with 3.2 million views, she says: “She was crying in bed, so I said ‘here we go again’ and turned over and fell asleep.” Also echoing (very heavily) is this: “When you tell me exactly what I did wrong, I say, ‘I’m sorry you feel that way.'”

Unsurprisingly, the comment sections are equally relatable; because countless women are responding to a clearly universal experience. “ARE WE ALL Dating THE SAME GUY?” one asks, while another writes: “This trend makes me realize that I have never had a unique experience.”

So the ‘women in men’s fields’ trend makes women feel seen (at least by other women). As a TikToker put it: “The tendency for women in men’s spaces is to teach women that it’s not our fault. This is a nuanced guide to red flags.”

For others, it is a way of at least making fun of such experiences. as GLAMOUR contributor Chloe Laws wrote: “I prefer this trend because sometimes you just have to laugh at the misogyny I experience every day online.”

Perhaps unsurprisingly, there has since been a “men in women’s spaces” spin-off trend on TikTok where men share their experiences in their own relationships with women. Some are playful, some not so much. Maybe he touched a nerve? Either way, you can expect your FYP to be filled with relationship stories that are too relatable for predictability… and Anaconda is repeated.

As someone who has been in a relationship with a man for over 15 years, I highly recommend therapy.
