I do too, but I am bothered by the physics of it. Shouldn't the hamster go flying out in the other direction based upon the direction the hamster is running and the wheel is spinning?

I was thinking the same thing. Can hamsters run backwards that fast?

^ It's pretty funny how women can rationalise this. It's like trying to sell a used car for more than what a brand new car costs.

I won't be giving this any more of my attention but there's more: https://www.google.com/search?hl=en.....1ac.1.55.img..1.10.614.7z96pGIXCwk#imgdii=_

Both of us would wreck the shit out of that clam and you know it.

Another gender stereotype is that masculine men are attracted to them. Fortunately, these powerful anecdotes help women smash that stupid outdated stereotype as well.

Ok, I have a confession to make. When I started reading all the memes I thought that these were just RVFers re-makes of certain of these memes (sort of like in the Neil DeGrasse Tyson thread or something like that). So e.g. when I saw Basil's post I was like "heh, good one, must've have gotten hold of one of these stupid things and taken it to the extreme ha ha."

Anyway, am a bit hungover, but slowly (and chillingly I might add) it dawned on me that these aren't just some faux-renditions that were hilariously re-done by RVFers but, rather, are the ACTUAL memes and pictures in the campaign! :laugh: Holy sh*t that's just insane/unreal.

Goddamm it really is THAT BAD back in the good ole US of A isn't it?

My God what are these people teaching the youth of America? Its about as far away from any sort of morality you could possibly have for women these days. It's utterly ridiculous that this woman can get away with this sort of thing and even get praised for it!

Meanwhile, men are constantly told to look for the one, "man up", build a family etc. And shamed into doing literally almost anything for the good of the women.

What a sh*tshow and what's worse you've got 70% of the population not having a clue about it or just not even caring.

Except that it's not even the US of A -- she is Brazilian (the text in the captions is translated from the original Portuguese, I believe).

The US and the Anglosphere may set the tone but thanks to smartphones and social media the rest of the world is catching up pretty fast.
