On August 19, 2024, political commentator Liz Wheeler posted a graph depicting the 9 Least Attractive Hobbies for Men According to Women. Quote: “The is 100% true. Men playing video games is peak unattractive. Beyond red flag. Like Dealbreaker zone. It's weird that so many dudes don't get this.“ And while this graph was quickly community noted by Twitter saying quote: “There is no source provided for the reported finding, and the percentages are rounded evenly to the nearest multiple of 5, which is implausible. The origin of this image is from an TikToker making a joke post about them being birdwatchers.“ Now why is this important? Why are we talking about this? Because it's a slight against video gamers. And moreso, it's a slight against men. And we are an entertainment commentary channel. And I am a Man. So, believe me, I have a lot of things to say. This fake study was seen by 18 million people on Twitter/X. That's a lot of people to be exposed to this negative and false stigma. That's a lot of people to be spewing this negative propaganda at. But let's go ahead and look at the other things on this fake list: Video Games, Collecting Figures, Magic Tricks, Online Trolling, Gambling, Building Model Trains, Taxidermy, Comic Book Collecting, Bird Watching... all unattractive, allegedly. First off, Gambling is the most dangerous one on here. It's that only one I could justifiably confirm would likely be unattractive to women. It's hard to argue with gambling, as it's the only one on this list that's almost immediately dangerous. Idk, maybe magic tricks is just as bad. Taxidermy is also weird. I know a lot of people. You, at home, know a lot of people, I don't know a damn soul that's into taxidermy. That's a little weird, yeah. Hey what happened to max, the dog? oh, he's right here! And that takes us back to the Video Games point. With video games being put at the top of this false study. Well, let's finish up what Liz Wheeler has to say about this: Quote: “Video games are sedentary, consumptive, fantasy steeped in immorality that have serious, negative real world side effects on the men who play them. 4 in 10 American men between the ages of 18-50 play between 1-3 hours of video games every day. That’s… a lot. Maybe a bigger problem than I realized when I posted the meme. Yes, a MEME.“ Good backtrack, Liz. Yes, everyone will stop dogpiling because it's a meme. Some of y’all need to loosen up and laugh at the funny meme that triggered you. But video games are a net negative on society when you measure the increase in aggressive behavior, desensitization to violence, anxiety, mood disorders, social adjustment difficulties, nightmares & sleep disorders correlated to gaming. Got any studies to back that up? It’s pretty simple. Women are attracted to men based on men’s ability to protect, provide, produce, & procreate. Hobbies that illustrate that ability are attractive to women. Hobbies that do not… are not And yes of course there are toxic hobbies women have too… TikTok, online shopping, Real Housewives. But this was never about a war between the sexes. It was never an attack on men. I love y’all. That’s why I want you to stop playing video games and laugh at the hilarious meme. I mean, did you see the part about taxidermy?! Okay, there's a lot to unpack here. Here's how we're going to do it. Firstly, understand that this is a particular topic that is rooted in emotionally charged responses. Just as the initial tweet is an emotionally charged response itself. Right? She didn't actually backup any claim, she posted on twitter and left it all out there for people to believe. But that's okay, Liz, we'll do the research for you. - - - Let's Play PRETEND!
