Given the popularity of the thread 'American Girls be Like', I propose that this be the name of a new sub-forum that contains all threads pertaining to the strange behaviors, physical/mental illnesses, trends, crazy articles, and all the other symptoms of modern cultural decay(feminism, etc) we see in women happening non-stop.
I must confess to there being a selfish element in this proposal. On one hand, I am so tired of the latest incarnation of the crazy/damaged American woman putting herself and her life on display for us all to consume. On the other hand, it is a train wreck that I simply cannot turn my eyes from. '36 y/o mentially ill spinster "ready-ish to date" after carousel rides' is such serious click bait that it's hard to just bypass it.
There's a time and a place to rubberneck what's going on, but I'd prefer to just not have it mixed in with 'Everything Else'. Considering it takes up a quarter to a half of Everything Else on a daily basis, it certainly has enough material to warrant its own space.
Ultimately, it only passes on a load of negativity and disgust. It's not like we're winning the cultural war by gawking at this nonsense day in and day out and none of it is new. It's just re-hashed themes. Let's quarantine those crazy bitches and stop them from dominating the discourse.
TL;DR Make a new sub-forum to contain threads pertaining to American women's follies and the culture wars instead of it dominating 'Everything Else'
