    Think that’s where we differ though - I don’t think the artist is complaining, just observing. If my significant other has a quirk and I identify it even in meme format, that doesn’t mean I’m demonising them no? Some of my friends who are women complain about when I offer solutions to problems they just want to rant about so I related to this in a way - imo that’s not a bad thing, just different and perfectly valid. My GF however likes when I give her inputs on how to handle situations. Both are fine, and I actually preferred my female friends telling me they don’t like it because then I could ask my girlfriend or even just other friends (men and women) “by the way, do you like when I offer solutions or would you prefer me to just listen?” The difference between this and boomer humour is the latter would then go onto say “that’s why I hate my wife” lol.
