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?

I'm not even sure how much of cishet bro culture actually allows men to like women without seeming weak somehow. It's all about contempt and domination and performative emotional constipation. frothingfash

Expressing any sort of weakness towards a woman risks some other man to try to boast at your expense.
