Sorry I've woken up full of icks today:

Men who claim to enjoy salsa/bachata/any sort of latin dancing - just comes across like they've googled 'where to meet women' (like women are always told to join hiking groups to meet men?). And men who pole dance! Christ. My eyes.

Men whose entire personality is their nationality. Australians and Kiwis are so bad for this. If they're Italian, they'll tell you they'll make you carbonara (or even worse get their nonna 🤢 to do it). Even worse is when they're like 'guess my ethnicity' (it's always Italian or Moroccan).

Men with sausage dogs. Why do you, as a man, have a dog that is clearly woman-coded?

Men who pose with their hand flat under their chin, palm facing down, with their head at an angle. It actually makes me want to throw up. It just screams 'I am a soft boy plant daddy who will sexually harass you then accuse you of being sex negative'.

Men who make going to therapy a personality trait. You just know they're going to try to use therapy speak to guilt trip you into something.

Men of the age of about 21 who describe themselves as a boy.

Doggo men.

Men who try to flirt with you by disagreeing with you in that fake nonchalant but actually simmeringly aggressive way. And then if you don't back down and agree with them they crack out the danger emojis (🙈🤪🧐)

Excellent listing! The BIB alone shows how most women can spot bull like this in a nanosecond, and how men like this just can't cope with having been found out.

A close friend told me her fiancé announces that he’s “going for a wee-wee” 🤢

I’d have to call off the wedding tbh

But it's so good? What if their favourite was like Cadbury dairy milk 🤣
I see where you're coming from but Kit Kat is Nestle chocolate, which is not as nice as Cadburys.

Like imagine a man in a shop looking at all the chocolate and then purposefully selecting a Kit Kat.

NO

Regarding your second ick, that reminds me of a couple that I keep seeing on Facebook videos called Sarah and Carlo. She's American and she's Italian. Their content is always based on her deliberately 'insulting' his Italian heritage (eg by snapping spaghetti in half before cooking it).

The videos are so obviously faked and staged with him pretending to be offended, while accentuating his Italian accent and saying how things are meant to be done in Italy. It's so cringe and icky, but if you look at the comments everyone seems blissfully unaware of the fakeness and coo over how cute and sweet the videos are. I can't stand it. 😂

What, no! Cadbury has been rank for years now! (Also I'm literally eating a KitKat right now 🤣) I'd definitely get more of an ick if I saw a guy selecting Cadbury chocolate!
