Exploring the Understanding of Children's Trends: Man or Animal?
This week in youth culture, people are discussing whether you'd rather be stuck in the woods with a man or a bear, raising concerns about gender dynamics. Meanwhile, a woman's duet with a kitchen fan has warmed hearts, and a YouTuber has delved into North Korean entertainment.
The "man or bear" debate: a revealing question
A viral street interview video questioned, "Would you rather be stuck in the woods with a man or with a bear?" by TikToker Screenshot, which got shared widely. The answer for most women is, surprisingly, "a bear." This question exposes a shocking reality.
Women chose "a bear" because they've never been followed home by a bear, no one will disbelieve their story if they're attacked by a bear, and they don't have to worry about seeing that person at a family reunion. It's astounding how brutally honest this simple question reveals societal issues.
For men, it takes some prodding to understand the underlying message, and when they do, the realization is remarkable.
Interestingly, if you switch the genders to "a woman or a bear," the choice would be "a woman" without a doubt.
Men's responses to Reddit's Ask Men subreddit were less than helpful, with comments like "Women just like to get together and talk shit about men," "they like fueling the gender war and being the victim," and "there's a reason our fathers and grandfathers just didn't listen to women when they yap." But these statements confirm the point the question intended to make.
By the way, there are 40 bear attacks each year worldwide, and close to 250,000 rapes.
Wholesome TikTok challenge: "watch my boyfriend"
The "man or bear" debate is disheartening, so let's switch gears with a heartwarming TikTok trend: "watch my boyfriend." Here's how it works: women or girls film themselves, ask their audience to watch their boyfriends, then step out of the room. The videos capturing their partners provide a glimpse into their daily lives. Some chill eating crackers, some simply sit and think, others share interesting facts, and one even mentioned flamingos. It's refreshing to see real, ordinary relationships in a world full of drama and controversy.
Cybertruck's uncertain future
I used to think Elon Musk's electric car promotion was the best thing he did for society. But the Cybertruck's reception might change my mind. Launched in November, it's faced issues such as bear-like rusting, software glitches, potentially severed fingers, no car wash compatibility, and a recall due to a fatal design flaw. Despite these issues, can it become the next-gen cool vehicle? Probably not.
The "it's so unpopular that it becomes cool again" argument can backfire. Musk's Cybertruck is not cool. It's a matter of vibe, so I could be wrong, but a car with severe issues likely won't appeal to many buyers, regardless of its futuristic design or promised efficiency.
However, there's hope for it in the long run. Cars like the Edsel and the DeLorean, initially ridiculed upon launch, have gained a cult following after years passed and everyone declared bankruptcy.
This week's viral sensation comes from TikTok, featuring musician Claire Boyer singing in perfect harmony with a kitchen fan as she prepares dinner. The mesmerizing, wordless melody has captivated viewers, with the video amassing over 19 million views since its posting earlier this month. Audience members from all corners are attempting to add words to the mysterious tune, creating duets, offering suggestions, and sharing their emotions, memories, and thoughts on the track. Claire has even revealed that she's producing a full song based on this video, collaborating with her fanbase to create lyrics from the comments section. While we await the final product, it's unlikely it will live up to the captivating essence of the original.
To contrast with this brief clip, here's a lengthy viral video you can delve into: Paper Will's "Entertainment Made by North Korea," a five-and-a-half-hour documentary that explores the origins, context, and meaning behind movies, music, and TV shows created inside North Korea. This footage provides an intriguing look into this otherwise hidden realm. It's not only thought-provoking but also gratifying to see how many people have tuned in, expressing their enthusiasm and intrigue.
Bonus: A Lengthy Viral Video - Exploring North Korean Entertainment
Harmonizing with kitchen fans may be a short, sweet dance, but this week's long-form viral video offers an immersive exploration. The five-hour-and-thirty-minute-long masterpiece on YouTube, "Entertainment Made by North Korea" by Paper Will, is a deep dive into North Korea's cinematic, musical, and televisual world. Witness the craftsmanship, history, and cultural significance within each piece of content. North Korean entertainment has captured the hearts and fascination of viewers, leading to widespread interest and lively discussions around its meaning, impact, and origin.
