Pardon me for not properly reading. I did not want to assume misogony yet this is what I am commonly accustomed to around me. After reading the explanations and re-reading the post it is indeed "just me who is stupid". Not trying to cause controversy or drama, just literally curious to what I asked. Probably should have made sure I understood the original post before commenting. Thats on me, so sorry about that.

    No worries.

    I see a lot of people online who seem to like getting angry, and often create ridiculous narratives to make anything sound offensive. A lot of that is posted here, and I just wanted to be sure that wasn't the case here.

    My post is also intended to be read by others, to hopefully encourage some introspection by those who actually get mad and find offense in posts like this. I find assuming best possible intent is usually best and more often correct than not. I felt your post was a genuine misunderstanding, but worded in such a way that others could interpret it differently, hence the post.

    Anyway, have a great day!

    I understand your concerns. I see it alot aswell, thankfully my experience on Lemmy has been way more constructive and understanding.

    I can see why my post seemed to be constructed in a way to create drama but I genuinely just wondered if i missed the joke or if it was misogony, nothing more to it. I dont know how, but i missed the entire "put the bit in the drill part" and my head just summarized it to "girlfriend is going to drill a hole -> i panic" which seemed very confusing to me and not what im used to on here.

    Also seeing the community was based around Twitter kinda helped my brains stupid narrative since that place is its own forest fire.

    Anyways, sorry for the confusion, thanks to everyone for clearing it up, and have a nice day 🙏
