It won't sput another trend because man are not obsessed with tiktok trends. We are obsessed with empire.
y'all are obsessed with video games and degeneratePORN.
hardly impressive.
It is a huge achievement
Yes.
The roman empire isnt random, It's literally the basis of our society. Once you go down the rabbit hole you literally see its latin influence everywhere.
There's a reason Roman Numerals are on most currencies around the world. It interacted with all three Abrahamic religions. Ruled most of the known world for hundreds of years.
Calling the Roman Empire something random, I am fuming
Futility and cluelessness level 100, right?

Agreed. Everything about modern-day society across all 7 societies, including even Antarctica, wouldn't be the same without the Roman Empire. Its influence is too monumental to not think about.
“Men did not love Rome because she was great. She was great because they had loved her.”

bruhhh im a male non tiktok user and no lie i actually do think about it a lot, before i discovered this trend my mind would sometimes randomly wander around roman/greek conquests, democracy, religion, law, mythology, etc, not even having any particlar trigger for it, and i thought it was just a quirky/bizzare trait that was unique to me, or very very few people. now im glad that im more neurotypical at least among people of my own gender, than i thought.
“… which RANDOM topic….”. We are so different that she can’t even understand that it’s not random at all.
What if the only reason I don’t think about the Roman Empire daily is because I think of other empires. There’s just to many.
A literal Smörgåsbord of Empires. All beautiful in their own unique way.
But ROME!
I’m more of an Alexander guy myself, but the Roman Empire was more enduring.
@@hardcoredoom5892 Byzantines and Rus are kinda more my thing but that is the Roman successor state soo...
@@ternovnik257dawg, why did u just call the Eastern Roman Empire as the "Byzantine Empire" and the "Byzantine Empire" is the Roman Empire itself, wdym they were successors
@@hardcoredoom5892the mongols were at the top of the mountain
Anyone who’s interested in world history will think about the Roman Empire a lot
I’m gay and not at all that masculine, but I like imagining what it must’ve been like to live in such a huge country so long ago
Just the fact that you could travel from Northern Africa to southern Britain and still be in the same country is amazing to me
Also, I was in London recently and I visited the old London wall, it just awe struck me the fact that it’s been standing there for almost 2000 years
Most of the romans wer gay to do
Why would you imagine that?
I mean I think about Latin because I have anatomy diagrams on my walls, I'm studying the earliest Christian gospels which were written in ancient Greek originally. But what would be the purpose of *imagining yourself specifically* dressed up like a Roman? That's not even "thinking" about the Roman empire, that's playing a mental movie in your head called imagination.
Also you couldn't have traveled. It's a rare person that ever left their village, people who left their villages might only be soldiers (or rare traders) and really only to a nearby village to invade. People weren't walking from Tunisia to Hadrian's Wall. Which goes to my point about imagining. When you fantasize about something, you're not seeing the real thing, you're making your own projected image of those times and you are almost always inaccurate in making that projection. Most people's projections are made from chopping up Gladiator and Passion of the Christ together.
you being gay doesn't mean that you don't idolize the same ultramacho crap that hetero men do.
if anything, gay culture is INCREDIBLY macho and misogynistic, just look at the way you refer to "bottoms" and any gay dude that is scrawny or has soft features.
the average gayporn isn't "delicate" by any means.
Watch reruns of Will & Grace, not an episode goes by without the 2 main gay men treating the lead actress like she's a fool or obnoxious, and making some comment about how being with a woman grosses them out.
so of course you get off on these ideas of having power over vast land and whatever other bs.
you're in denial.
bahahaha @@Utilizador-gs3lx
It wasn’t a country, it was an Empire.
Don’t worry, no man will come ask you what you’re thinking. We’re too busy thinking of Rome.
Their thinking about themselves my man
The Legions are calling, they need us, they need the tip of the spear again.
Because we are almost the same as them and don't want to mess up the way they did. To never think about is is more than scary.
As a huge warhammer fan, I think of the Roman Empire predominately due to its association to the XIII Legion, ultramarines. They use the roman glaive, a short sword - Many wears the laurel leaf crown or the Galea helmets, etcetera.

"How often do you think about the Roman Empire?"
"Vae Victis!"
yeah lol I think about it all the time.
Whyyyyyyy????????
@@straikera Why not? It’s really interesting
@@nooOO00I What are you trying to do?
@@-whackdwhat are you trying to do?
I think about the Roman Empire a couple of times a week-whenever I have to think of an explanation for something like where Christianity spread to or why a particular road is straight. I think of the British empire about as often but not so much Persian, Ottoman, Mongolian.
So you don't think about it at All thanks for your honesty
@@BlueJays-pc6fpliterally not what he said
@@BlueJays-pc6fp “i think about the roman empire couple of times a week,” literally the first line of the comment
The female version of the Roman Empire is Victorian England.
Fam most women don't even know when that was. I'd put my paycheck on it
@@PattyOflan88 half of their chick-porn (trashy romance novels) are set in that period. I assure you, they know it.
I'm more of a Templars and Conquistadors type of guy
Can you even take any adult person seriously who is a regular tiktok user?
You got the answer with the last one: what are women thinking: "themselves"
some butthurt incel energy going on here
Eyyyyy
I feel like true crime is the female roman empire 😂
There is not an educated European out there who doesn't think of the Roman Empire all the time, male or female. The language I speak literally comes from the Romans as do the roads I use (originally) and if I think of my ancestors or any history it obviously includes the Roman Empire. All roads lead to Rome
For me it’s ancient Celtic and Norse mythology
We men think about more relevant things like politics, history, military, engineering and architecture… that’s why when women do think about an ancient civilization it’s often about mythology. Something downright useless
@@Poiuytrew-uq7dl mythology is steeped in history, politics, architecture, engineering etc. Mythology is very much part of history and if you spent any time studying it you would know it’s highly allegorical and culturally significant.
@@casfox Sure, dear
Kudos to you because you’re actually very right.
I enjoy Celtic mythology especially, a great deal, not only is the founding of most nations historically tied in some way to mythology like the first Emperor of China king Yu creating all of the tributaries of China with the aid of a dragon or he himself was a dragon, mythology is actually extricably woven into the fabric of every culture.
I’m starting the Arthurian myths by Leah Tether, part of the flame tree mythology series, but boy is King Arthur a hugely important figure in English and Welsh mythology, first mentioned in the Y Gododdin by Aneirin sometime between the 6th-11th centuries, he is also tied to French culture because Chrétien de Troyes based some aspects of Arthur's character and personality on a noble patron of his, named Philip d’Alsace(a chivalrous knight from Flanders I believe...) but of course in the Welsh legends he represents Welsh resistance against the invading Anglo-Saxons, again hugely important figure as a foundational national myth of Wales.
Good on you. Ignore those two goofballs.
@@Paser00 I’ve recently started learning a bit of Welsh mythology myself. I had always assumed it was shared amongst the ancient Celts but not so. There are similarities and variations. Very fascinating!
Men: _remember basic history_
Women: 🤯
They ruled a massive chunk of the known world for over 1000 years. How does that not cross your mind often
I think the latin music in games contributes to this heavily. Ive often heard from boys and men who play games that when the sky or the sea starts speaking Latin, or the bosss monster has a Latin theme its over.
As a student of Law, it is an everyday thing to come to mind.
Law revolves around power, morality, politics, legal systems, rights and public order and then the Roman Empire comes to discussion every time... again, again and again.
And it has become so natural to talk about it that we do it almost unconsciously now. haha
When it cones to politics, morality and rights then the roman empire was literally rhe worst of the ancient empires. Like what? The greeks and especially the persians had far more sophisticated and civilized societies, but people who know nothing wanna badwagon this weird silly trend. Like what is this logic?There is no hope for humanity when backwards bby 🧠 people think they are somehow profound intelllectuals who spend their time pondering about the roman empire lmao. If you spend every day thinking about it then you better have done some insane analysis and ideas about, so lets hear it brother. Did you come to any conclusions thinking about it? Cause what you wrote here is meaningless surface level ramblings
Roman empire is like thinking about random sports cars for men.
To be honest, I have been researching Greek Mythology for the last month in my spare time
Im a Vikings guy. Till Valhalla
I'm pretty late but I'm a woman and think about the Roman empire a lot. Although, I tend to be a bit more interested in Bronze Age civilizations like Sumer and Ancient Egypt. I'm also really interested in the Mongol Empire and Imperial China. But I also have Autism so I'm probably a bit of an outlier in the wider female population.
I had a dream of me and the boys building Athens just to be raided by some weird dudes from Persia, then the Roman Empire. I know Nero comes in muuuuch later, but somehow Nero (Fate universe version 🤦🏼♂️) came in and announced, "Nobody rules Rome but me) and helped us (Athens) fend off Roman soldiers
I'm not male, but I do think about the Roman empire a pretty whole lot. My autocorrect even capitalized Roman in sheer reverence apparently, twice. I tend to lean towards either scholarly critical analysis of the bombastic shit these many lads did during each of their reigns, or saucy yaoi romance fantasies, especially with Caesar and this one guy Nicomedes(I think? Memory is a little foggy) when Ceasar was a foreign exchange student that one time. It's real guys.
Hm, that sounds like the real Roman empire that you're thinking about when you read Japanese comics.
next month: why is domestic violence on a steep rise? :D
i just learnt about this and i died.. what the actual fuck?! 😂
I don't think about the Roman empire I usually think about Pirates when they used to to roam around the Earth
Also reveals that women do not really know their man.
I think about it constantly and wish I was there. And I have since I was born. I also think about how mechanized and soulless and devoid of real experience life is in the modern Era. How far removed it is from nature
I do think of the Roman Empire, but honestly the Glory of the Mongol Empire is greater
more important question, what do people that don't think about the roman empire (and things like it) think about? Do they just wake up every day and assume all these buildings and infrastructure came pre-packaged with earth? are their days filled with worrying about your social standing among your friends, or their monotonous job, or this weeks fashion?
it's not even the roman empire (and republic) in particular, it's everything. we think about the mongols, and the huns, and the chinese dynasties, and the japanese shogunate, and the malaccas strait trade empires, and the indian maharajas, and the persian empires, and the macedonian diadochi, and the ancient egyptians, and the caliphates, and the mali trade routes, and the spanish reconquista, and the portuguese explorers, and the british colonies, and the holy roman empire, and the polish lithuanian commonwealth - i could go on. their structures, and their politics, and their economies, and their culture and philosophy, and their art and cuisine affect literally everything around us.
being stuck churning your mind over thinking about the petty day to day shit sounds so depressing. everyone should entertain abstract and unrelated things like the roman empire daily
Bro there are plenty of people out there who unironically think the world is currently 2023 years old
I think them thinking about it so often has nothing to do with their gender. More with the fact whether they're interested in history or not.
Woman: "How can I make this about me?"
Lot of great empires with great warriors, we all come from a lineage of heroes and survivors, we resignate with the Roman empire the most because it’s an ancient empire that still resembles modern society
Jesus Christ so go enlist keyboard warrior
@@BlueJays-pc6fp already out dip fuck
I think of many empires I even play empires it’s just you learn not to repeat history if you know history and not just that I love empires all of them and how they were made and destroyed
The women equivalent would be shoes. Guys- when they need a new pair or if they see a rare pair- probably somewhere between once a month to once a year. Girls would be significantly higher
The only tiktok trend that isnt that cancerous.
Absolutely cringey and cancerous for me
Every single day.
they female version of the roman empire is taylor swift and travis kelce. which in turn makes men think about the roman empire because we know your being distracted from what is really going on around us and youre oblivious.
If you're an Iranian man, you would think about the Persian empire.
Start by reading The Meditation written by Marcus Aurelius. He was there and led.
nah wmn be thinkng bout shoes thats universal
nuh uh
i follow a lot of meme page about history. i guarantee i think about it at least 2 times a day.
I think about it like 50 times a hour oh and Greek mythology I think like every 20 minutes
I mean the Roman Empire was a really big thing that’s why most stuff happened
an angle of understanding of why this is could also be the fact that Christianity and the Roman empire are so fundamentally connected historically. If you think about the New Testament regularly, then you are likely thinking of the Roman empire.
the female version seems to be how often do they thing about thier former best friend that is not longer their friend.
for men, we hadly can watch star wars, play warhammer, or read or watch anything related to western history, culture, food, language, science, art, christianity, etc, or even watch the news without thinking once or twice in the roman empire.
Woman lags behind in nerd topics in general unfortunately
You're asking men of the West, who live in the current globally dominate empire, how often they think of the empire that birthed their entire history and are surprised by the response? Latin is still used in the legal and medical professions. Regardless of what European tribe you connect to, Rome influenced it.
If I'm not mistaken, the classification of living things is also in Latin (animal and plant kingdom)
I have to imagine at least some women do this too. How do you go through a whole week without considering, as a civilization:
1) where we are
2) how we got here
3) where we go next (if anywhere)
4) despotic tyrants
5) how to prevent atrocities
6) your ethical responsibilities to other people
That really feels like taking the whole world for granted
I'm surprised it took this long for them to make it about women.
The roman empire isnt random. The roman society as a whole was arguably the greatest society in history up until modern western society. Its crazy how people(women) think its weird to think about things that are important and relevant. You know be educated.
Bizzare?
Men think about the Roman Empire because it was a great civilization that laid the basis for our society and government, women think about the Salem Witch Trials because they fantasize about being oppressed so they can complain about it. We are not the same.
Leave Diocletian alone, he just wants to grow his cabbage.
They had to make it about themselves
The fall of the Roman Empire is similar to the fall of the United States which is what we currently going thru. It isn't weird to think about parallels in historical events. It is really dumb to not learn from history though.
USA is not an empire although it's the world's leading power. Assuming it IS an empire, you've only been an empire for 80 years (1940-now). How dare you compare yourselves with the longest standing and most influentional empire in the history of mankind. Check yourselves.
I tried explaining that to a woman one day, how things started to go downhill after the sexual revolution of 1969, how the income gap widened drastically, how the family unit has been disintegrating in a way eerily similar to Rome in accordance with the culture epoch cycle of societies, all that for her to called me a misogynist
We are doomed
Roman circus, bread and games.
girls: "why do you think of the roman empire like whaat i dont understand"
also girls: "joins the taylor swift appreciation club"
And they'll forget or regret their little fan clubs in a few years.
Meanwhile Rome is eternal
Would say most women think about kardashians or something similar because they haven't really gotten behind anything that promotes women's success. Just the amount of money behind a show that breaks other women down
What women think about, collectively: trends in fashion, makeup, tv-shows and these silly things, everything to be a part of the collective. Basically, beauty.
What women think about, collectively: history, geopolitics, science, technology.. How to build society, basically.
I think a lot about the stories of people of the Bible. That's probably a daily occurrence.
Those were Jews although they were in the Roman empire, and somebody died because of the Roman empire enforcing it's laws.
@@-whackd yes correct. Most of the people were Jews. But both Caesar and Pontius Pilate (among others) are mentioned in Scripture. So there are different references in the Bible in regards to the Roman empire.
@@-whackd they were in Judea, the jewish province of the Roman Empire.
Never heard of this trend. I'm a guy and the only time it's on my mind is when it's brought up by someone or on TV.

Women's Roman Empire: True Crime?
I don’t think about history much. I’m a woman who spends a lot of time thinking about time, space, and the universe. I wonder about the cross section of other dimensions with what we perceive. I think about the future. I do watch some recaps of reality tv for amusement. I’m currently consumed with a kpop group and their recent release, Korean culture, and learning more of the language. I enjoy gambling and I’m scheduling a casino trip for Thanksgiving weekend. I think about the battle of Stalingrad from time to time and the American Civil War, but I guess since I pursued a BS,, I didn’t get an education steeped in liberal arts firmat of Western European centric teaching. Mine was more Organic Chemistry centric focus. Yeah, I’m preoccupied with the universe ad the possibility of continuous non-theistic life. Women aren’t all the same, but maybe the ones you choose to date are similar for a reason.
Of course women have to turn the subject to being about them. No one is asking why men are thinking about the Roman empire.
random? bruh?
women dont have a roman empire obsession, they just think of dumb crap all the time
It just shows how men have to lie about every petty thing to be right. Having no idea why
How so? Projection perhaps?
The female equivalent is celebrities, and babies.

You aren't human, just barbaric!
@@NoVisionGuyWhy?
That's fine. That means your a woman. That's the point of the trend.
Never think about roman empire. Are they gamers then I'm not surprised
It's just because males and females are different. I already knew women don't think about the Roman Empire already. Whenever I've had a conversation with a girl about anything that's not gossiping or a about a reality TV show or about sex or about celebrities (the common thing about these things is that they are all people-focused topics), their eyes just gloss over, you can see they're really bored. But when men are alone we have long conversations about space or conspiracy theories or planes and everybody is enjoying themselves. Men think mostly about things, women think mostly about people. This has been scientifically proven for decades and common knowledge for centuries, probably millennia before that (even back in the Roman Empire they knew this). Yet in 2023 we act like it's a new discovery, it's sad how far we have fallen.
Our ancestors, from every human culture, from every place in the world, in every era, in every religious/occult text, in every language, have repeatedly told us that men and women think differently and that they are NOT the same. So that's how I already knew this, because I actually listened to those people and noticed the same patterns they're talking about in the world around me.
How stereotypical and biased. Yes women and men do think differently BUT researchers stressed that just because the two sexes think differently, this does not affect intellectual performance. Men think more with their grey matter( a brain type of tissue) while women think more with their white.
I’ll gladly tell you that psychologist and researchers that their findings show that in general, men have nearly 6.5 times the amount of gray matter related to general intelligence compared with women, whereas women have nearly 10 times the amount of white matter related to intelligence compared to men.
If women only think about people while men discussed the big things then there wouldn’t be any female scientists, physicists, engineers, astrophysicists, teachers, lawyers, psychologists, doctors, neuroscientists and et cetera.
Please we’re in 2023 enough with your gender bias, your statement is a classic mansplaining.
"whenever I've had a conversation with a girl"... 5 years ago, on the internet?
You mean, WOMEN?
those conversations say more about the kind of women you hang around with, than about women themselves.
I think you just talk to thots. Lots of women are interested in those things, too
@@Xela07727 He is correct in saying that men are more object oriented whereas women are more people oriented. Where he drops the ball is in saying this means men are only interested in grand intellectual topics while women are only interested in shallow, superficial ones.
The majority of intelligent men gravitate towards STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) fields, while the majority of intelligent women gravitate towards fields that require emotional intelligence, like education, healthcare and visual design. Meanwhile, a roughly equal amount of men and women are talented at art, music, writing and poetry. These are all important pursuits that advance human development.
Men and women complement each other and both play a crucial role in advancing society.
@@Xela07727aren't feminists crying because women simply do not take STEM classes? There are always exceptions to the rule, but I'd wager 95%-98% of engineers are male. Bare minimum 80% of scientists I'd wager as well.
Meanwhile nursing, psychology, teachers, event planners, real estate ect. Are all mostly women....it's almost like men like tinkering with things and women want to learn more about what makes people tick. Stop being so self hating, there is nothing wrong with being in those fields. We complement each other, stop making it a competition.
THINK ABOUT N. AFRICA IN THE LATE 5TH CENTURY. THINK ABOUT KANSAS AND NEBRASKA. THINK ABOUT THE SOUTHERN BORDER OF THE U.S. THINK ABOUT BREAD IF YOU CAN FIND IT THANKS TO OBAMA'S BORDER POLICY UNDER BIDEN. NOW THINK ABOUT MARRYING A ILLEGAL JUST TO GET BREAD.
Men are thinking about the roman empire because when the romans lrt people be trans was right before the fall of their civilization and we are seeing this in modern day times. Someone made a RUclips video about it quite interesting
And this is why women were not allowed to vote, some time ago...
The girl version options are all 🚮 never think about those stuff. It’s probably just generally romance. Or romantical gestures.
yeah something not remote. Women find this funny b/c they aren't at all imaginative and it's funny to them anyone would think about anything remote (distant in time and/or space) even if it was a week or two ago
