this has been on my mind a lot. I follow some lesbian meme shitposting groups and there's tons of memes that are just like "This girl looked at me and I died and then she smiled at me and I came back to life" and I just cannot think of any cishet men's spaces that bring that have that level of absolutely dorky dysfunctional love for women. And, like, cishet men, their whole thing is supposed to be being in to women, and that just strikes me as really weird that there's not an equivalent. Like the closest I can think of is wife guy memes but that's just one wife, usually.

Do any spaces like that exist? Is it even possible given the way gender works in society?

The most you're allowed under societal norms is a wry sense of satisfaction. When you got an example like that guy with cat ears (no idea what he is named) who made an animation about loving women he was relentlessly dunked on for it. If that had been a lesbian absolutely nobody would have given a shit.

I thought that animation was really cute and endearing and it surprised me in the worst way that he got so much hostility.

Hard to find these days, but there's this link.

NSFW site, but not really a NSFW video.

As the site's resident joyless scold, I agree.

He got more shit for that than Lizzo got for actually doing shitty stuff.
