Have you been a victim of a man who ghosted you for a week, who then comes back just to tell you that he had been “busy”? Or how about trying to explain to him how his actions have hurt you, only for him to say that “you’re just overreacting”?
If you’ve experienced this, then you’re among the many women who are currently uniting to expose the toxic behavior exhibited by men in the modern dating scene through the “Women in Male Fields” trend.
In case you haven’t caught up on what’s new yet, the “Women in Male Fields” trend is taking the internet by storm. Often using Nicki Minaj’s “Anaconda” song, among other meme audio clips, women are filming themselves reenacting some of the stereotypical “bad and toxic” behaviors they’ve experienced dating men, flipping the narrative on the relationship double standards in today’s dating landscape.
What made the “Women in Male Fields” trend more successful is that they’re too relatable—from casual ghosting and insincere apologies, to brushing off your feelings and refusing to take accountability for their actions.

@anna..papalia ⬇️ Imagine asking a man half the interview questions that they ask women 👩🏽💻Women are routinely asked inappropriate and illegal questions in job interviews. “Do you have kids?” “Do you plan on having kids?” “Are you married?” “Are you planning on getting married?” “What does your husband do?” 👀If an interviewer asks an illegal interview question, you can respond by politely stating that you don’t feel the question is relevant to the job and would prefer to focus on your qualifications, or you can directly point out that the question is inappropriate and ask them to move on to another topic, while maintaining a professional demeanor; if the questions continue, you may even consider politely excusing yourself from the interview. 📌Key points to remember when responding to illegal interview questions: • Acknowledge the discomfort: “I’m not comfortable answering that question as it seems to be personal information not relevant to the job.” • Redirect the conversation: “Can we focus on my skills and experience that are directly related to this position?” • Ask for clarification: “Could you please explain how this question is relevant to the role?” • State the legal concern (if appropriate): “I believe asking about my [protected characteristic] is not permitted under employment law.” • Maintain professionalism: Use a calm and respectful tone, even if you feel uncomfortable with the question. 📌Examples of how to respond to illegal interview questions: • Question about age: “I have extensive experience in this field, and I’m confident my skills are a great fit for this role.” • Question about marital status: “My personal life will not interfere with my ability to perform the job duties.” • Question about religion: “I’m happy to discuss how my work ethic aligns with the company’s values.” • Question about pregnancy plans: “I’m not planning to start a family in the near future, and my focus is entirely on my career.” #interview #interviewquestions #interviewprep #womeninmaledominatingfields #womeninmalefields #equality #hiring #hr #corporate ♬ dat anaconduhh sound bb – nueruuu
But, of course, what’s a trend without its critics?
This new viral trend has garnered criticism from none other than men themselves (are we even surprised?!) and as a response, they, too, create their own spin and are trying to make “Men in Female Fields” trending as well. And tbh, the trend only further shows how toxic men are.

On a lighter note, some content under the supposed trend is wholesome and basically calling out men themselves—which we love, by the way.
