I don't. I was making fun of this post.

It is using the age-old "girls vs boys" trope, and therefore juvenile.

But I don't think girls are yucky either, on the contrary I'm actually a huge fan. I'm not sure I understand what you're getting at.

The point that the meme template you're using is sexist, as it implies that women are shallow and care about "dumb" things, like romantic movies, while men are cool and care about "smart" topics like history and politics.

I disagree. I think the point of this format is showing how we are emotional about different stuff. Most women and men are touched by different things, and this meme has been a way of saying "do you all guys also get emotional when thinking about this" often depicting absurd stuff but it's fun when we guys find out we are the same. And the less sense it makes the funnier. If we are talking about being men it's because it's the most common trait between individuals in this community
