I'd expect nothing less from Google

americandreams100 · 2018-05-07T14:54:42+00:00

Feminists love to throw around the words "systemic sexism" all the time... Well this is a perfect example of it. Very ironic how the things they complain about happen to men just as much if not more often.

ntr0py · 2018-05-07T12:17:16+00:00

Yeah, google is clearly never manipulating search results to push an agenda. Try searching for "American inventors"...

CounterfeitMemes · 2018-05-07T14:25:45+00:00

Yeesh, confirmed it myself too.

zulu127 · 2018-05-07T12:20:01+00:00

I checked some other search engines and found similar results using Dogpile and Bing. DuckDuckGo came up with no autocomplete for either query and Yahoo! had autocomplete for both sexes. Interesting.

edit: Quit using Google as a search engine.

ttnorac · 2018-05-07T16:24:07+00:00

THE FUCK?!?

I just tried it, and its true.

danielmd92 · 2018-05-07T15:37:24+00:00

I think that's what the majority of people are searching for. Comes to say how the majority sees men? Either way mildly annoying

aerovado · 2018-05-07T17:29:59+00:00

I usually don't believe these "screen shots" but call me a monkey's uncle, I was able to replicate it.

hottama · 2018-05-07T14:52:40+00:00

Google is not a search engine anymore.

uniqueusername1190 · 2018-05-07T15:47:12+00:00

I honestly thought this was bullshit so I went to check myself but nope, it's real. Still bullshit in a different manner.

GigaGrey · 2018-05-07T17:27:36+00:00

The German variant

Eh. It is tougher on the men, but not really nice to the women either.

MrCommotion · 2018-05-07T17:13:16+00:00

Unrelated, but it also happens if you search for "Islam is so," but not "Christianity is so"

M8753 · 2018-05-07T13:05:31+00:00

This works on chrome but not on firefox..??

kuntslayer · 2018-05-07T16:42:38+00:00

I thought this was fake and gay bullshit then I went and tried it myself, was totally legit.

pennywaffer · 2018-05-07T16:06:24+00:00

I got "why are women's nipples sore" as only result

benbrum · 2018-05-07T16:48:14+00:00

It just worked for me. (Deleting former comment.) It also worked for women but with supportive and positive results for them. The men had all negative results like the ones above. I wonder if it's Google's algorithms or the prevalence of what gets searched for men.

mikesum32 · 2018-05-07T13:22:46+00:00

Damn visuals!

kantomasterspencer · 2018-05-07T16:46:17+00:00

Bing does the same thing.

WorkyMcWorkmeister · 2018-05-07T17:00:31+00:00

Don't trigger the ideological commissars at the googlag, they'll kick you into their marxist memory hole. Which is now unfortunate since they control the entire internet...

I seriously hope they get eviscerated by anti-trust monopoly busters for their jackboot bullshit, ironically the EU is actually leading the way on this and I can't thank them enough.

turbulance4 · 2018-05-07T17:59:25+00:00

I tried dropping the word "so."

It didn't help much.

SmallFlyingPolarBear · 2018-05-07T18:51:21+00:00

Just verified. WTF???

tiniestkid · 2018-05-07T19:36:38+00:00

Confirmed. Done in incognito so no influence on autofill from account data. Also tried some other searches.

Borgatbars · 2018-05-07T20:41:36+00:00

Weird, Swedish Google doesn't do this, I would've thought it would...

https://i.imgur.com/Ax2DQGF.png

So, for males (left) it goes:

why are men so egoistic
... cowardly
... so many refugees male
... Swedish men so ugly
why do Swedish men spend so long time on the toilet

Women:

why are women so mean to each other
... so whiny
... so mean
... so angry
... so boring
... so wierd
... so many women cheating

Wsing1974 · 2018-05-07T21:37:46+00:00

More fun: Search "Why are mras so" And "Why are feminists so"

Tell me what you find.

FilmingAction · 2018-05-08T00:01:36+00:00

Why is the tag "unconfirmed"? I just tried it and it's the same.

M8753 · 2018-05-07T16:50:55+00:00

it's not clear to me how this logic works. I tried a few different religion names and don't see consistency in the results, some show suggestions, some don't. What browser did you use?

brokedown · 2018-05-07T17:22:15+00:00

For a good laugh, try it with "why are [men|women] such" instead of "so".

It's almost like they did it on purpose.. but I won't ruin the surprise.

Akesgeroth · 2018-05-07T18:04:22+00:00

Pure coincidence.

Ninagram · 2018-05-07T18:07:35+00:00

Macdaddyfucboi · 2018-05-07T18:18:17+00:00

Yeah this actually popped up I'm not surprised tbh

MGTOWManofMystery · 2018-05-07T19:17:37+00:00

Just had the same results. The anti-male Goolag.

Ninagram · 2018-05-07T20:06:00+00:00

You can "Report inappropriate predictions" on Google, so I reported this. Did anyone else? Probably nobody ever bothered to report it before. If you search for "why are <any-race> people so", it doesn't auto-predict either. If you search for "why are puppies so" it auto-predicts (cute) stuff.

CeamoreCash · 2018-05-07T20:14:11+00:00

Has anyone tried typing in any other word other than "women" and "men." On top of that has you tried dropping the word why and searching just for "women are so."

If you try this please tell me what you find?

Wsing1974 · 2018-05-07T21:24:20+00:00

Holy shit, I wasn't 100% sure this was real, so I did the same thing, and got the exact same results! Negative autocomplete suggestions for men, nothing for women. Fuck you, Google.

JohnjSmithsJnr · 2018-05-08T00:09:55+00:00

I just checked this and got the exact same thing

FlagrantWrongsDotCom · 2018-05-08T06:32:41+00:00

Would just note that because of how googles back end is designed it could have a lot more to do with the language used by people searching for those things than anything else. It could be worthwhile to just submit feedback regarding this, noting that the suggestions dont appear to be functioning correctly. From my understanding at least they are fairly responsive typically if there is a legitimate issue.

(For context Ive potentially made market observations for years regarding their stock that has had an immediate correlation with billions of value creation for them in minutes. Admittedly its a little weird I have extensive documentation of that though have the types of issues like some of you are probably aware of and the violations noted on the website re my ex. She sure as anything could pretty much never add value to markets nor add likely even a few mil of value yet at the moment i dont have google's people rushing to defend/protect somebody who has a history of adding more value to them for less than any of their IB's/many of their other counterparties they pay to just try to do that or less.)

kantomasterspencer · 2018-05-09T13:03:54+00:00

This is confirmed. I tested it on google and Bing.

jantexES · 2018-05-07T20:03:29+00:00

The key word here is SO!

rainman206 · 2018-05-07T15:14:18+00:00

Somewhere out there men are being falsely accused, and stripped of parental rights, or suffering in an abusive relationship...

but sure, let's talk about how an algorithm is sexist because we don't like what other people have been searching for...

3R3B05 · 2018-05-07T09:27:39+00:00

It's not like Google decides what results show up, those are just the most searched terms.

Donnough · 2018-05-07T18:56:36+00:00

This might be the dumbest fucking post I've ever seen on this sub, I was hoping it would be satire or something but looks like you're serious. Why didn't you include the autocomplete results for the women search? I'm sure they exist as it is an extremely common phrase to search for.
