On the internet, funny trends pop up all the time. You might’ve heard of “girl math“. Initially, it was a light-hearted and witty joke. It served as a playful way for women to justify their spending habits by pretending they had a unique method for calculating expenses. It wasn’t meant to be a serious analysis of mathematical abilities but just a fun way to enjoy spending on things you like.
Like many online phenomena, “girl math” took an unexpected turn. It evolved from a joke into an argument when some men online took it a tad too seriously. Instead of recognizing it as playful banter, they saw it as an opportunity to criticize women for lacking math skills. The situation escalated into a gendered debate about mathematical mastery, giving rise to a new internet trend: “boy math.”
The emergence of “boy math” posts was a response to the fuss over “girl math.” Women who started the joke felt unfairly targeted. So, they decided to create a jest about men as well. “Boy math” involves women sharing funny and ridiculous things men do. It’s like a way to say, “Hey, we can all share a laugh without taking things too seriously.” Scroll down to join in on the fun!
