View submission: What's something you never understood about the opposite gender?
It's definitely not a social standard from what I've seen, because I've never been anywhere where this is the norm. It happens too often yeah, but I've found like 5% of female friendships are like that.

it depends on the context tbh. i've been in places where only like 1% of women do it, but i've also been unwittingly involved in social groups of like, 20 people where all of them do it, and one person not doing it is a reason to pick on them. it seems to happen more in certain social groups? the worst i ever saw it was in business school where everyone involved was upper middle class and relatively sheltered. the vibes were like a nuclear waste dump in there. the men in the group either participated or let it happen, so it does go beyond the gender borders a bit too.
