HOT TAKE “male centered” has been abused to the point of becoming nothing but a vessel for misogyny. no your friend isn’t male centered bc she got cheated on and is venting abt it. she isn’t male centered bc she’s dating a guy and needs to talk abt it.

Some people genuinely are male centered though, like someone who just meets a man then immediately wants to start a family with him, can’t have a conversation without taking about a man or just never seems to be single. I’ve met plenty of women who base their worth off of male attention and it’s genuinely sad

I've never seen someone being called "male centered" for venting about a boyfriend. I'm sure it happens but it may not be as common as it feels

And I feel like it's made to solely put women down in the cases where it's not really true, I don't know if I've ever heard anyone call my gay friends male centered and I have met one or two male centered lesbians in my life

yeah normally when I hear “male centered” it’s for an actual problem lol, it’s not “just a vessel for misogyny” but it sounds like people have misused it in OP’s life

gay men can def be male centered, so can straight men. it’s just about how much you value & appeal to male attention
