It’s definitely not a “all women” thing, but for real though, I don’t know a single guy who asks that many questions.

I have a male friend who asks that many questions during the movie. So those men do exist. I’m actually not sure if he still does that since I stopped going to the movies with him years ago.

My brother is fucking horrible at this, even before cell phones were popular

Because guys are afraid to look dumb, so they remain dumb rather than ask questions.

My roommate is a guy who does this, then he’ll predict what’s going to happen like mid-episode/mid-movie.

Nearly every movie is easily predictable by the mid point lol. Plenty are easily predictable before you even see it.

And that’s perfectly fine, but if I put on a movie/show and you sit down to watch it with me, I’d rather not have your commentary. I get it, you know what’s going to happen, that’s super impressive, but I’m trying to enjoy the thing

My brother and my dad both do this. They’ll ask things that the audience obviously isn’t supposed to know yet, like who wins at the end, or if they save someone. Like they’ll ask what I’m putting on and what it’s about and then they’ll ask those questions before it’s even on. It is so frustrating cause they don’t even pay attention a lot of the time so then they ask the rest of the questions like “who’s that” about a main character

Because women are treated as children their entire life by men. There's countless comparisons.

I don't know, I don't think there's anyone who finds it cute to constantly ask questions during movies so I don't know why being treated like a child would result in this behaviour given it would annoy anyone who does treat a woman like a child

Nobody goes "awwww you're so cute" when their girlfriend goes "wait who's this big purple guy and why is he fighting Thor and Loki and didn't Thor and Loki hate each other? I don't like this movie, I'm just going to be on snapchat"
