Yeah this is weirdly sexist. I only know one person this describes because he's growing weed (legally) in an apartment so he can't have a outdoor garden

Hell, I know over a dozen men with gardens and only two even grow peppers. Everyone grows tomatoes, though..

Seriously. Who could talk shit on local wildflowers? I'm feeding bees up in this B.

yes. everything is gendered for gender warriors.

i'm cishet and i have a garden and most women i date think it means I'm secretly gay. the cat doesn't help.

gardening is considered feminine, or for old people. not for younger men who are supposed to be virile and dominant. they should be hunting.

Same, I don't know any dudes into gardening that care about that shit. One of them does grow peppers, but it's because he likes peppers, not because he's worried growing other stuff (which he also does) will make him look like a pussy.

I grow several varieties of peppers from sweet bells to habaneros, tomatoes, okra, cucumbers, and mint, plus a few odds and ends that look cool at the garden center. I tend to grow plants that either produce more per dollar to grow than I can get at the store, or in the case of tomatoes, of better quality. And mint is eternal.

I also harvest beautyberries that have sprung up wild on my property, and have recently learned that the big weird thing looming over my wood shop is a black walnut tree, so I think I'm gonna go nuts next summer.

theres whole subs for growing succulents, carnivorous plants,, but usually its mostly women in those subs.
