I think homosexuality has reached a level of societal acceptance(at least in the west), that it is ok to be ironically homophobic again.
Then again, some might argue that being against nazis was a societal norm, so being ironically nazi was fine too. Yet here we are now, where being unironically nazi is somewhat acceptable by a large part of the society.
It’s a way for people to recognize that times have changed and that by making jokes ironically it means that yes they are accepted as gay and that we do acknowledge that it was a real struggle in the past
Maybe we should think about these memes less as complex thought-out statements, and more as reflections of the times they are created in, just like all art.
I wouldn’t say this is an insane take from that person, or misandrist really. I have no other meanings in regards to what that person says, but in this case this is a sensible take.
The whole meme is about how women are “hysterical” and overly emotional. While men are calm and chill creatures.
It caters to stereotypes that view women in a negative light. I know exactly zero women who act like this. Most women are calm and chill people as well. Unless you of course call them hysterical or overly emotional, then they can rightfully get a bit mad. You would probably react that way also. It kinda infantalizes you.
I would as a man, expect my best friend to tell me if he’s moving, expecting a child, or is getting married, within a reasonable timeframe. That is within a couple of months.
Woman bad
And this one even has a little homophobia sprinkled in.

And being homophobic is even more acceptable by a large part of the society.
Us gays are savagely homophobic for comedic effect, so yeah. 😅
If two guys friends are dating it’s very important to warn them that their partner is gay
Bonus panel:
Even chadder face: “I married my husband”

Yeah, exactly, I thought that that comment was forcefully trying to find the post offensive
“I barely talk to my friends lol.”
“There’s a male loneliness epidemic.”

"I spend my free time playing Marvel games and Fortnite, I never go outside and never try to meet new people in any way.
