  The lioness does not concern herself with grammar, however.

    The lioness has unwarranted emotional reactions.

      The lioness’ joke was kinda butchered by the typos though.

    A reposted shitpost isn’t like reading Tolkien???

    Does “Suck a lemon, you pedantic twat.” meet your grammatical standards? Should I try again? XD

  I’m gonna be that annoying cunt and say that this community is way too much of a sausage party to be making this kinda joke. I would love to read it as “haha lol that’s me” but in this community it comes off as “lol dumb woman annoying”. Misogyny is a massive problem on reddit, and we should try harder to create a more welcoming environment for women here.

    FWIW I initially just took this in the context of the source material, Game of Thrones.

    Cersei Lannister (pictured) comes from a noble house whose sigil is a lion. They use a lot of lion metaphors. One of the quotes from her father Tywin (in the show at least) is “The lion does not concern himself with the opinions of the sheep.”

    Cersei as a character, though, is a bit of a hot mess who makes it her business to concern herself with everyone.

    Yeah but this is Lemmy. There’s far more overlap between ‘sausage party’ and ‘women’ here than most other social media can even handle.

    And like, I never watched GoT nor read the books but still caught the reference. So this doesn’t feel like a form of arcane misogyny.

      Yeah Lemmy is a million times better for sure, though especially in these communities I feel a strong male slant.

      I watched GoT and read the books and don’t quite get the reference. It reminds me a lot of the way some dumb Breaking Bad fans see Walt as the cool hero and Skylar as dumb annoying woman. I dunno I’m probably overreacting based on other unrelated negative experiences

    I honestly thought this was a joke about this character specifically. It didn’t come off as “dumb woman annoying” to me, it came off as an in-joke about how this character.

    You’re reading a little much into a ASOIAF meme here, friend.

      Yeah it’s possible, sorry bout that. I do feel like we get a lot of man-humor here though

    On lemmy there are multiple women-only communities that reach front page regularly.

    If you pay close attention, they also post here.

    I’m suprised how many (at least claim) to be women around here.

    How do you know how many women vs men are here? Is it just assuming man unless they decide to tell us their gender and be “that person”?

    Misogyny is saying women are anxious overthinkers? My man, that’s reality. Would saying “the lion snores so loud he wakes himself up” or “the lion farts his way into climate change” misandry?

    The lioness sees danger and offense where there is none!
