Incorrect. Of all my male friends, the ones with kids are to ones that do the most simple DIY projects (handyman level stuff), but the childless ones are the ones that do the most complex projects (renovations, custom works, etc).
EDIT: The useless gay man stereotype holds though. Looking at you Wes and Andy.
None of those groups are ever mentioned. Why is that your first reaction, honestly? There’s nothing… there?
This is a purely fun post, playing on specific stereotypes of specific subgroups of those groups. There are other stereotypes for these groups: figurine painting, grilling, etc for dads, and for lesbians… well actually most of those are either only known in some communities or are mildly homophobic so.
I agree that gender stereotypes are bad, and you could easily argue that “can use mechanical tools” being a masculine stereotype is bad (it is. Also the fact that lesbians get lumped in with masculinity buut I’m getting off track), but this isn’t the post to do that on.
Look, quit being dumb, ok? The post clearly implied one set of stereotypes, which imply certain others exist, and that was far from a serious post I made.
I’m legitimately not trying to be (also, rude). There’s an initial stereotype used to make a joke, a second similar one to play on it, and the rest is just development. There is literally no implication for any other groups anywhere, you made that jump on your own. There are other groups who have “being handy” as a stereotype, like old people rebuilding their decks or whatever, so it’s not even like this post means all other groups suck at it.
And what part of your comment wasn’t serious? It’s literally just a sarcastic complaint
Haha yeah gay men and straight women are fucking useless for anything practical (collapses in drunken haze of hate)
Not just gay men. Men without children can’t do home improvement. This is common knowledge.

I did ask you to quit being dumb, and yet here you are, being, I suspect, intentionally obtuse.
