Nancy poo?! Tino Baldussy?! The HARDy boys..? Period I love it 🥹 this was such a fun watch all jokes aside 🥰

I needed this today, thanks Meeks 🥺

I've missed something, definitely

Awww this is on that ‘Woke Garbage’ shi*

I WAS THE FIRST VEIWER!!!! I was playing Minecraft and wanted to watch someone play Minecraft so I joined. Back then I went my shilo, I now go by del and I'm so proud of meeks!! ❤

Getting this video after I just got back from my trip to Japan is so cool :]

Of course Japan would be playing OG SpongeBob ❤

OMG NICE

I always thought it was weird how the way SpongeBobs emotions were depicted changed between versions. In the old episodes he's validated and his optimism ties people together, but post movie both are depicted as simply being annoying and babyish. I think about that a lot.

I think what really ties it together is the fact that Spongebob and Patrick's tears are what ended up saving them in the gift shop :')

Spongebob was always a genderfluid icon ❤

I haven’t watched the whole video yet so sorry if she literally mentions this in there and I’m being redundant lmao BUT I was just thinking the other day about how I’m glad that they gave spongebob eyelashes, especially his iconic big pretty ones, because it’s so irritating that cartoons always signify “male” or “female” using eyelashes, as if males don’t have any at all lol, or as if having them “makes you feminine”/that being a bad thing, etc. it’s such a small but appreciated detail because he’s such a popular character (one of the most popular of all time and holy crap am I proud to be a spongebob kid lol love the guy), so seeing him subvert traditional masculinity even in his design right up front is 👌👌👌

5:09 I think thats wrong, since he has confidence is very masculine he shows his strengh in othe ways he is always rather optimistic, i think the traits spongebob has are characteristicly masculine bc men are emotiona, l it just mostly an angrier side of feelings, men hno feelings is not true they show it just not everywhere bc of everything, Bob can dance pretty good and shows some rizz by women i think he is also that way bc of Sandy she is literally a beast, but he always shows off coolness and a motivated surrounding he has talent in his joband is compassionate, being a man and being masculine are different things, biologically seen you got born with balls and you can also produce testosterone naturally, not every man produces the same amount at the same time (same with women its just th estrogen and uterus etc), i think being a man is when you got you goal reached and is always opened to do something adventurous, but there are women that eat a lot of food with testosterone and different activities same with men ( i watched 2 interviews with biologists it was 5h long), simple said his masculine side just hides behind his sweetness, in an episode Sandy calls him out on kiling nearly a hundred people.

Im a trans guy whop grew up with spongebob as one of my favorite shows my parents allowed me to watch with wild abandon and now a days im plagued by the societal pressures of gender constructs and what it means for *me* to be a guy, to be a man. i appreciate this video and im gonna take it as a reminder to try to take a page out of spongebobs book and maybe even rewatch the first seasons and movie as well cause its a fucking banger

HOW DID THE SUBSCRIBE BUTTON SHINE RAINBOW WHEN YOU SAID IT IN THE VIDEO

Im masculine because i love Raccoons and 😮if i find a baby raccoon with no mama i would take care of it and adopt him as my baby ill become the raccoons new mama 😮

Extremely feminine and extremely masculine people are annoying phonies.

From what you’ve shown us from the earlier seasons, I almost forgot how genuine SpongeBob’s feelings were when he cried. He was hurt and had to let it out. And I honestly felt bad for him and am glad people stood up for him. Especially Squidward in the last clip. In the later seasons, I feel less sympathy and more annoyance because when he cries, it’s out of a joke instead of being a genuine scene. You did a great job with this analysis and breaking down the layers behind the yellow sponge. Fantastic work

Sadly this messages flies over everyone’s heads and a lot of people think SpongeBob is gay because of his personality. I think Nick even confirmed that recently?

i’m transmasc and SpongeBob ABSOLUTELY shaped how i view masculinity and gender. you put into words something i’ve been trying to express for years

This video is fantastic! You do an excellent job explaining your point and providing good examples! As I've thought more about it, Spongebob really has been one of the most foundational and influential things in my life. It was one of the the reasons I love cartooning / animation, its practically defined my sense of humor, and (while it is not the ONLY reason) I think it has even influenced my choice in pursuing marine biology! Before now though, I've not really thought before about how it portrays masculinity, but in a funny twist it turns out that it also kinda reflects how I've developed over time as a masculine presenting person as well! I've identified as a boy/man for most of my life and basically tried to stick to what was generally expected of my gender until more recently, but now as an adult I've become much more aware of how I don't at all fit the "traditional" definition of masculinity, as well as the nuance that gender identity / presentation can have. Perhaps that is yet another thing that spongebob has given to me, and all this time I didn't even realize it! Thank you for giving me an new way to look at and appreciate one of my favorite pieces of media of all time.

great video! makes me think about how some of my friends were not allowed to watch the show growing up because spongebob was “asexual”. my friends parents were not comfortable with his feminine behaviors and decided to shield their kids from it all together. that’s texas for you i guess

I don't tjink spongborb has much to do with gender roles but you did a good job with this video, also I feel like it should have ended after the first movie

I'm non binary and he was always my favorite

spongebob was always my favorite cartoon character as a kid. i was a crybaby and seeing a character like me that wasn't just the butt of every joke meant a lot to a kid who was picked on for wearing my heart on my sleeve. Live laugh spongebob

As a kid, the Grandma's kisses episode always struck a chord with me. I feared growing up because I was instilled with the idea that I would have to stop being a "weak kid". Spongebob breaking down at the end because he doesn't want to stop his childist behaviors still gets to me.

It's cute and all that you found something deep in a children's show but you lost the sauce watching it, Spongebob is meant to act like a child, juvenile and sensitive so kids have something to relate to, it's not an adult show or tries to be, every character has its own quirks and tries to adhere to children of different characters, some may relate to sandy some to patrick, I've always related to squidward, no matter how old I got.

One small tv show made in the late 90s cant reframe millions of years of evolution.

He’s basically a gender less child

stay in your lane

More like how SpongeBob embraces femininity

SpongeBob is just an amazing tv show, so many theories and ideas

Wow, this video despite being a personal anecdote mirrors my own story near perfectly aside from current time in life. It's kinda nice hearing my own thoughts echoed back at me. Makes me feel more confident in my decision to stick so closely to this whole streaming thing. Congrats on three years! Never give up, I Hope-YA' keep enjoying this for years to come!

I could watch this video all day. For some reason, I feel so connected. It's like I'm not alone in this.

This video was absolutely amazing and I can’t wait to see more from you :) But if you’re looking for more information regarding the SpongeBob movie and how that treats masculinity and why people think it’s the conclusion to the show overanalyzing the SpongeBob movie

Great video, it seems people are finally catching on to aspects of Spongebob that I've appreciated for years. In-spite of how he's portrayed in the show I've always thought Spongebob was really cool, heroic even, because even though the odds were generally stacked against him he never outright abandons the worth of masculinity and would always accept a challenge, at-least in my mind.

Seeing how much gender wars and bullying thats going on right about now, I am so glad somebody could make a video like this to keep my hopes up, I just want peace in this world, something that Hillenburg would've always wanted.

This was a great video-oddly enough, hits home for my own childhood. Me and my friends were never “typical” boys as we were very open with our emotions. I have a distinct memory of me and my friends singing “The campfire song” after some older boys sang some rock or rap song (not that those are bad music genres-I love them both!) and laughed at us when it started. But me and my friends didn’t care. We loved SpongeBob and how it made us laugh. Great video!

I don't normally comment on RUclips videos but I gotta say that this really touched me as a trans man that grew up in a Catholic home, SpongeBob has always been so important to me and my humor and taste in entertainment. love that freaking show

Thank you for making this!

<3 if you get enough likes maybe you should explore other topics in the earlier seasons; like femininity, non-traditional roles/relationships, work/life balance, maturity, or just talking about favorite episodes and what they meant to you growing up, instead of exploring the later seasons? <3 fun video!

Nicklodeon is gonna take down this vid because there’s 5billon clips in it, and man this video is good.

False. He only did the 1st 3 seasons. And came back season 9th

OMG YOU GOT 22K VIEWS!!! I remember you saying thank you to me joining your live for the first time (this is del first fan ✌🌝)

Great video, and I would love to hear more! In recent years I've grown to love the first SpongeBob movie in how it offers a more positive idea of masculinity. Like SpongeBob and Patrick were the ones to save the day and did it by being themselves; rather than the kind of guys they thought they had to be.

Man EVERY Ficitional Male Character is getting a Video on Masculinity Bruh

More SpongeBob

One of the manliest things a man can do is to not give in to the masculinity competition.

(Kylo Ren MOAR meme) great video. Spongeboy being so emotionally intelligent was really there on the surface the whole time, just like the pickles under Bubble Bass’s tongue

I think you're really overthinking it, but I'm not complaining 😅
