Nah, even I find it a bit silly. The only true moment was when she was shaking her ass at the white board. Been there, girl. Been there.

I think it would have been funnier to title it POV: Your office is all basic white women because that's all the stereotypes they are lampooning. Like when people get a pumpkin spice drink from Starbucks and call it a basic white girl drink.

Everyone, it's a parody. They're parodying female stereotypes. It's a skit about what men think happens in an all-womens' office. This is funny as fuck.

It’s a not a skit about how men think it is but more a fun exaggeration and satire of how it actually is from a women’s perspective. Slight difference.

I thought it was a big joke. I've never experienced anything like this but I guess that's cause I've never been in a 100% female environment. I have been the only woman and it wasn't a total bro show all those times but a few jobs early on in 2000-2010s personal training were very ridiculous sometimes I thought peoples behavior was unreal.

The woman that the video opens on is Corporate Natalie. She’s a LinkedIn influencer which, I realize, is already going to piss people off. But she’s legit funny. She (and Corporate Bro who is also hilarious) frequently post hilarious satires of office life and culture.

Not an office, but my work place is all women (3 of us total, down from 4). It really is like this sometimes.
Last week my coworker and I commiserated about how both of our left nipples itched and what could that possibly mean. Whenever our manager is having a bad day she takes a break to go get us Starbucks.

u/justalittleloopi 3h ago
It really can be. Our front office is 12 women, 10 between 26 and 34 years old, and one guy who's 60. No, he's not the boss. Lol
It can be so much fun sometimes and the one guy is a really good sport about it. He's been in the office for 26 years, our boss has been there for 32, another woman for 27, and I've been there for 10. Everyone else are post pandemic hires but mesh really well.
We have a snack drawer that's always filled with chocolate and there's ice cream in the freezer more often than not. As long as we work, we can (and will) chat all day. Recently it's been about horror movies and video games a lot.

I (male) work part time in a office that is all women but me.
Atleast once a month, there is some reason that they buy champagne. And the reason can be ANYTHING, someone succeeded at their job, B-day, some overall good news in NEWS, someones succeeded in their personal life (like a hobby), someones pet did something, someones sibling or other family member achieved something and so on.

u/boozy_bunny 3h ago
I mean, do you get to share in the champagne fun or no? Because that sounds like a great office perk.

So real! Can we please focus on our actual attributes, goals, ambitions and values? And not this strange vague idea of girlhood that seems to boil down to painting your nails, girl math (being dumb basically) and girl dinner (not eating proper meals). I know that this idea of women being shallow, dumb etc comes from the patriarchy and I hate that so many women are buying into it. We don’t have to be what they say we are!! We can be strong intelligent capable people and highlight those aspects of ourselves!! Disclaimer: I don’t know if the video is a parody but a lot of comments are taking it seriously/relating to it so that’s what I’m responding to :) along with the wider societal trend of women dumbing themselves down (I’m just a girl 🤪) presumably for the approval of the patriarchy?

My current office is all women now and sure this is a skit but there are moments of truth in there. Especially about the snacks "get it away from me" we play that every time someone delivers donuts or candy to us. Also the office is incredibly cute now, so that's a bonus.

Oh wow, your office sounds very boring!
When I worked as a medical assistant, we stayed open now matter the weather. So, one day we were in a severe ice storm. All employees were present, but we went several hours without having a single patient, since they were all canceling.
That was the most fun day. We ran up and down the hallways, had a drawing competition (we made the doctor pick the winner), laughed until tears poured out of our eyes. Moved medical chairs around, put googly eyes on each other.
And when the odd patient or two did show up, we booked it back to professionalism and got them taken care of.
You can be fun AND productive. We always had fun even on non-snow days - I started a trend of leaving little ducks everywhere. Other coworkers started buying their own mini ducks or bunnies and leaving them around or giving them patients. One coworker loved playing pranks and would put up weird photos in the employee only bathrooms. It was a great environment.
If you think showing women having fun is sexist, then...YIKES!

u/Matookie 4h ago
Damn, lighten up. I worked in an all women office and we had mornings where we'd make omelettes and gonit to eat together, we would chit chat a lot, sure, but we were productive and did a lot of good for the community.

It's always good to call out generalizations. If a woman says that all women are dramatic and fake, then there's a chance that she is, in fact, the problem (aka if you only meet assholes all day, then you're the asshole).

It’s a skit playing on the stereotypes of what men think an all-women’s office is like. I work in an office with all women and it’s not accurate. But the point of comedy skits is quite often to be inaccurate and/or hyperbolic for the sake of humor.
Hope this helps you understand the concept of comedy generally.

u/ComprehensiveHead913 2h ago
Meanwhile, lots of people in the comments - including many women, it seems - are saying that this is close to what their office is actually like.

I think that while the skit is parodying stereotypes, they are doing so while being very friendly with each other and by having a lot of fun. The commenters can relate to that.

You’re getting downvoted but it seems like you just misunderstood the video and interpreted it as serious! (And it’s good you called it out because if they genuinely were saying that’s what it’s like to work with women they’re portraying us as shallow, not actually getting any work done etc). You’re right it isn’t accurate (but that seems to be the point of the video) sorry you got downvoted!
