Where did this thing come from? Along with the stereotype of girls drinking coffee and eating nothing else? And the “almond mom” thing? Do women not eat? What’s the history of this cultural thingy?
In: Other
This is a pre-Internet stereotype that was around for a long time before the Internet was really a thing. I remember hearing it a lot from standup comedians back in the 80s, like Eddie Murphy had a bit about it in his standup (Delirious, I think) and I remember even Roseanne Barr in her first big comedy special doing jokes about how *other* women never eat anything.
I’m sure it wasn’t a new phenomenon back then either, but that’s when I remember first hearing people say it.
