Hey.

Y'know what really grinds my gears?  "Manscaping".  Oh, ho, ho!  Hold on, there, chief--it's prolly not what you think!  I'm not talking about men shaving body hair; I'm talking about the term.  See, I'm male, and I myself shave my body hair, including legs, because I like the way it looks and feels much better.  So why's it gotta have this stupid term?!  MANscaping.  Pffft.  Why does it need this "man" prefix, as if to emphasize the fact that it's weird or wrong or something.  Why call it something else?!  It's just shaving!!  Anyone can shave any body part they want!  Why do we need to call it this stupid thing if a man does it?!  What--is it too fem or something??  :scoots:  Pffft.  :dry:  F*ck that.  F*CK THAT:baconmane:

I hate all these stupid terms where they put "man" in front of it like that.  "Mansplaining" and "manspreading".  I'm not even entirely sure what those are, to be perfectly honest, but they sound asinine.

But you know what also grinds my gears?  MAN CAVE.  I f*cking HATE that term.  It's so stupid.  Just so stupid.  As if we're neanderthals.  As if no woman on Earth wants a nice room for electronic entertainment.  And no, I don't actually think it's offensive or anything, just annoying and stupid.  So stupid.  Stop saying it.  :mlp_okiedokieloki:

I think because the term originated from genitalia shaving. And it’s better than saying you’re shaving you’re balls in a social setting.

Well, they put the 'man' in there because it sounds very much like landscaping, as in the practise of trimming your bushes and trees (among other things). It's a much older term than 'mansplaining' or 'manspreading' and, to my knowledge, isn't in itself derogatory.

I'm with you on the modern terms, though. They contribute nothing positive to the world.
