A new TikTok trend called “Women in male fields” has been making a lot of waves online. This has intrigued netizens and they are curious to know more about it. So, what is the “Women in male fields” trend and where has it come from?
Here are all the details.
‘Women in male fields’ TikTok trend explained
The “Women in male fields” TikTok trend involves women exhibiting the same allegedly toxic traits they find in men. This is directed at men to point out what they have been doing wrong in relationships or in general and how they have been treating women poorly.
The videos showcasing the trend are different and unique. However, they all seem to have one thing in common: Nicki Minaj‘s song “Anaconda” playing in the background. Here is one example showing a woman TikToker claiming via her captions that she had ignored multiple texts sent by a man explaining something wrong in their relationship and that she had only replied to the last and least important text.
In another one, a woman suggests via her caption that she had received an impressive pitch from a capable male company founder and replied she would check with her husband on the same. However, she completely ghosted the person who pitched the idea and instead invested in her friend’s rival company.
A counter-trend called the “Men in women’s fields” was created in response. Here, men called out women for their allegedly unpleasant behaviour and attitude while in relationships. They also used Nicki Minaj’s “Anaconda” as the background music.
For instance, one user put out a video where he claimed that he did not want to block another girl on social media after being ordered to do so by his girlfriend. He described said girl as “nice” and that he did not want to “be mean.”
Another user pointed out his girlfriend asking him why he was friends with so many girls, implying her alleged insecurity. He claimed that he told her men were “too dramatic to be friends with.”
