A stereotypical man thinks simply, while a stereotypical woman overthinks, but simplicity does not mean stupidity. And I wish we would start holding the men in our lives accountable so that they don’t have the option to weaponize their “incompetence.”
Call them out.
I like to put ourselves (the man and me) in scenarios with the roles reversed or make analogies, so that they see how stupid they sound and that I’m not buying it. Most of the time they know how stupid they sound, they just don’t care about any woman’s feelings.
There was a post where this man was trying to explain how he didn’t marry any of his baby mamas because he wasn’t ready for that lifelong commitment. Low vibrational people or people with little discernment wouldn’t have caught the hypocrisy he was saying and might’ve even agreed. But a lot of women were in the comments saying how is marriage a life commitment, but a child isn’t to him. Marriage can end in divorce, yeah that’s not the end goal, but it can. While a child is supposed to be attached to you forever.
It made no sense, but that’s how men like that man try to trick women. They play mind games and use certain verbiage that you have to be paying attention to catch. And to prove that they’re not actually dumb, ask them how they would feel if the roles were reversed.
That’s when you’ll notice that they aren’t actually as stupid as they’re trying to make themselves seem. Because after all, if someone seems incompetent to you in a particular field of work, you’re not going to want them to do that particular job, right? And that’s why they do it.

They. Don’t. Care.
As long as they get someone to do it for them ain’t no empathy talk that will get them to turn into functional contributing adults. Just stop doing stuff for men. End of story.
Plausible deniability goes hand in hand with weaponized incompetence.
They got us out here simultaneously believing that they can’t figure out how to grocery shop or wash a sock because they are soooooo dumb (so then we do it) while they explain to our silly little female brains that they are the doctors, scientists, lawyers etc because they are the smarter sex. It’s 2025 and women are still fighting their way ahead in STEM.
The ability to problem solve, logic and reason don’t just turn off because washing a sock is a different problem to figure out than washing your hands properly before surgery.
