Gotta Be One Of My Favorite Genders meme template: A young man in a white sweatshirt stands with his hands clasped in front of a black Mercedes.

Gotta Be One Of My Favorite Genders Meme Template

Know Your Meme documents the photo and phrase as spreading in March 2021, with an early caption celebrating Women’s Day; it later circulated as an exploitable format with the praised subject swapped. The format applies “favorite gender” hyperbolically to an admired type or category. Because it borrows language about gender identity, keep the wordplay aimed at an ordinary habit, object, or interest rather than treating real gender identities or people as a disposable punchline.

What the Gotta Be One Of My Favorite Genders meme means

Know Your Meme documents the photo and phrase as spreading in March 2021, with an early caption celebrating Women’s Day; it later circulated as an exploitable format with the praised subject swapped. The format applies “favorite gender” hyperbolically to an admired type or category. Because it borrows language about gender identity, keep the wordplay aimed at an ordinary habit, object, or interest rather than treating real gender identities or people as a disposable punchline.

A young man in a white sweatshirt stands with his hands clasped in front of a black Mercedes. The template has one editable text band near the top; “Shout out to” above the image and “Gotta be one of my favorite genders” below it are already baked into this asset.

How the joke works

There is one editable slot. Name the person, group, habit, object, or interest being enthusiastically praised after the baked-in “Shout out to”; the bottom “Gotta be one of my favorite genders” is fixed, so do not repeat it. The absurdity comes from treating a specific favorite category as if it were a gender. Prefer low-stakes non-identity categories, and do not make a real gender identity itself the joke.

  1. Name the admired type, habit, object, or interest after the baked-in “Shout out to”; do not repeat the fixed bottom phrase.

Caption examples

Example that works
  1. PEOPLE WHO BRING SNACKS FOR EVERYONE

Names a specific, harmless habit as the object of enthusiastic appreciation.

Example that misses
  1. GOTTA BE ONE OF MY FAVORITE GENDERS

Repeats the fixed bottom text instead of supplying the subject after the baked-in lead-in.

Situations it fits

  • Celebrating a harmless, oddly specific habit
  • Praising a useful everyday object or feature
  • Showing affection for a hobby, fandom, or niche interest
  • Giving playful appreciation to a familiar low-stakes type of behavior

When this format does not fit

  • Do not repeat the baked-in “Shout out to” or “Gotta be one of my favorite genders” text in the editable line.
  • Do not use an actual gender identity or a protected group as a throwaway category joke.
  • Do not turn the praise into a demeaning stereotype about a group of people.
  • Do not put a full unrelated sentence where the slot calls for the praised subject/category.
