Fun or not, there's nothing wrong in pointing out how unbelievably stupid it is.
Or maybe I should stop myself and not "take a fun post seriously".

There was nothing fun about it though, granted everyone has a different perception of fun i just don't see the amusing or entertaining part of going through a quiz where it is blatantly obvious what answer gives what result, not to mention it being so limited that i felt that half the questions i couldn't actually properly answer because of how stupid the three choices sometimes were.
Also it was originally posted in the speakeasy and not shenanigans.

if anything, it sounds like youre offended at being called a girl. I do alot of feminine things and I dont care tbh ? Yeah they are feminine, thats what it is... nothing wrong with it.

Calling activities that a man or a woman or anyone in-between can enjoy equally feminine or masculine just perpetuates the stereotypes that they're for a specific gender. We don't need to pretend that liking sports is a 'guy' thing and enjoying cooking and baking is a 'girl' thing, gender doesn't actually determine what hobbies a person will like, just what their society decides they should like.

I didn't even do the quiz. And i'm perfectly happy with my "girly to manly" ratio thank you, don't make assumptions.
I studied Sociology and I know what gender roles are, I know how pineappleed up gender labels can be, and how restrictive and painful they can be for some people.
I'm too tired to bother explaining any more than @ Kabanaw did in his (awesome) post so:
long story short: this quiz is pineappleing stupid.

WHERE IS THE "REGULAR CELL PHONE" OPTION
Where is "my keys you pineappletard"
I literally haven't carried a cellphone, wallet, or lip balm with me at any point this year. Who needs to be interrupted when you're out doin pomegranate.

And that's why I never answer these kinds of quizzes, they are incredibly stupid and narrow.
