A female barber has taken to social media, specifically platform X, to shed light on her observations regarding male friendships. Her insights were prompted by a tweet from another user who suggested that women's friendships were often marked by conflict. Eager to set the record straight, she drew from her experiences as a barber and laid bare some uncomfortable truths she has learned over time.
In her tweet, she boldly stated, "Being a Barber amongst other things has kept me in the midst of guys a lot. Most of you don’t like your friends. You just shout BLOOD, BROTHERLY up and down. LIARS." This statement reflected her belief that many men claim strong camaraderie with their friends but often harbor underlying dislikings.
She went on to expose further nuances of these male friendships. According to her, these men would advise their girlfriends to avoid associating with their so-called "blood" friends, especially when financial assistance is requested. However, they would readily share drinks and spend time with these same friends whenever they gather.
The barber also revealed a telling behavior witnessed in her shop. When these men receive calls from their male friends while getting their hair cut, they often put on a facade, squeezing their faces before answering with a respectful "Chairman," as if maintaining a pretense.
Her observations sparked a lively discussion on social media, with various individuals offering their thoughts on her perspective.
@lifeofabaron_ challenged her by suggesting that her experience as a barber might not necessarily provide deep insights into the intricacies of male friendships.
@iam_apeiron questioned whether she could truly understand male friendships from her vantage point as a barber, emphasizing that men at a barbershop may not necessarily be close friends.
@Coldblooded_JS highlighted the distinction between "friend" and "acquaintance," suggesting that many men confuse the two.
@timmyjhoe added that discussions in a barbershop are often centered around subjects like football, crypto, music, or random topics rather than personal friendships.
@FerrzAk offered a nuanced perspective, acknowledging that the statement "Most of you don’t like your friends" applies to both men and women, emphasizing that individuals can have bad friends, even if they themselves are not part of that group.
Overall, the female barber's tweet prompted a thought-provoking conversation about the complexities of friendships, both among men and women.
