    My interpretation is he saw a guy because he had the visor on, but when it came off it’s revealed it was a hot woman all along, and the visor was “protecting” him from that view. As in, he doesn’t have to deal with his misogyny if he doesn’t see women.

    Ooooor it just doesn’t make sense.

      Damn that’s good. Yeah kind of like how we often see men as “default people” so if you’re just picturing a person you’re often thinking of a man without realising it - without even gendering them.

        I don’t see it when the lady saying “bro” after he loses the visor. “Bro” is not something ladies really say.

          I (afab) call my husband, sisters, and female friends bros, dudes, dawgs, and guys.

          Whether I’m a lady is debatable, because I’m a little rough around the edges, but I’m definitely female and wear skirts.

          Speak for yourself, bruh. We may not all say it, or say it as frequently as men do, but some of us absolutely have “bro” and its varieties within our regular vocabulary.

          Honestly, I grew up using “dude” the same way (it was unavoidable when you grew up surrounded by brothers and male cousins in the 90s.) “Bro” was adopted later on. It has the same gender-coded tinge to it, but since “dude” already made sense to me, “bro” never felt strange to say.

          Really?

          Maybe it’s linguistic continuity to show they are the same person from before the visor was removed. Or…

          Maybe women can just say “bro”.
