      Over the past few months, the term 'girl math' has been all over social media as women reveal ways they rationalise spending habits so they see them as being 'free' or 'money-saving'. But now a new trend sees the rise of 'boy math' which is all about making of fun men's habits and hypocritical behaviours - with some mathematical references here and there. One popular example from the boy math trend includes when men like to embellish the truth about their height by saying they are 6ft tall when in reality they are actually 5'10. "Boy math is being afraid of gold diggers when you only have 3 pairs of socks to your name," a viral tweet read, while another added: "Boy math is wanting 0 kids but having 0 condoms on hand." @ryan.maxwell22 I found this thread and i am CACKLING. What’s more boy math tho xo @cliffviews90 #Boymath #fypシ One particular tweet noted the hypocrisy of men "putting on a jersey with another grown man's name on it every Sunday, while mocking the Beyhive." While another referenced former president Donald Trump and his denial that he lost the 2020 US presidential election - "Boy math is telling everyone you won an election when you lost by millions of votes." Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez also joined in with the boy math trend as the representative for New York's 14th congressional district tweeted one referring to a possible government shutdown if a funding deal isn't agreed upon by representatives before Sunday (October 1). "Boy math is needing 15 attempts to count the votes correctly to become Speaker and then shutting down the government 9 months later," AOC wrote. Elsewhere, a different boy math post went viral on the topic of controversial age gaps - "Boy math is waiting until her 18th birthday, and thinking that doesn't make you a pedophile," it read. The boy math trend has become popular recently, but first began last month Twitter / X, began hypothesizing about "Boy Math" as a response to the girl math trend, according to Know Your Meme.

    Fury vs Usyk: Behind the scenes, laughter is turning to anger
      The heavyweight division is a bad pantomime now with Tyson Fury, Oleksandr Usyk, a chorus of fighters, a few promoters and some hefty backers all trying to work out what part of the dancing horse they are. Moving away from the ugly sisters, there is every chance that the gap between the last championship fight and the next will be the longest in over 50 years. This break is not common, ignore people telling you that. Fury defended his WBC title last December against his old, old friend, Dereck Chisora, and Usyk beat Anthony Joshua for the second time last August in Saudi Arabia to retain his IBF, WBA and WBO titles. Fury has no date, just social media plans, and Usyk is due to defend in Poland in late August against Daniel Dubois. It is hard to find a solitary reason for the break and even more difficult to put the blame on just one single person. There are a lot of people on the stage, and they all have a role to play. And to be honest, during the last six months they have all said too much. Sure, greed, rivalries, stupidity, lies and ego are at the very core of the problem, but boxing at the highest level has always had the same flaws, the same fluid obstacles. The standard excuses are there to overcome - that is how boxing works. Fury and Usyk for all the tarnished marbles was meant to have been signed and sealed last September. It was scheduled for April and is now a plan for December. Both boxers have insulted the other, and the theme of their mutual abuse is simple: greed. Obviously, both deny they are the greedy, money-grabbing party in the sad affair. Actually, the righteous outrage from both sides is comedy gold at times. Fury’s father, the unstoppable “Gypsy John” Fury, has demanded that Usyk apologise for his criticism. He has warned that if there is no apology, there might be a straightener in a field somewhere, man-to-man. There is honour at stake. It is endless mirth, it really is. c. Some of boxing’s wisest, richest and smartest brains have been involved in this ongoing lunacy. The men and women in the Fury camp blame Usyk, and the men and women in the Usyk camp blame Fury. The two main players in the Fury business, Bob Arum and Frank Warren, have a combined total of 98 years of promotion; they are both battling this madness. There is, according to some insiders, a one-off offer on the table from the government of Saudi Arabia for Fury and Usyk to fight there at the end of the year. Usyk has signed his deal. This offer is non-negotiable, and we know this because the media flown out to Saudi by the Saudi government have reported it as fact. As a guide to the way boxing works, there are seldom any facts involved when deals are being made, broken and made again. The real insiders are furious that Usyk and Fury, the biggest fight in boxing, is not yet across the line. The sanctioning bodies, who get paid a fee for fights, have promised to get tough with their heavyweight champions, but have not said a word or done a thing; everyone is holding out for a slice of the Saudi cash pie. ‘Hey, it’s a business,’ they will say, but that little claim is wearing very thin. Fury, meanwhile, has mentioned 10 possible opponents in his social media rants in the last few weeks, including a plan to fight two UFC icons in one night. Usyk and Dubois went to purse bids, which is one of boxing’s ancient rituals, and Usyk’s team won. The fight is scheduled for August. Looking in from the side of the crowded stage is Joshua. His fight with Fury was announced by Fury on 10 June, 2020; it would have been a fight for the ages, for all the belts and all the bragging rights. It never happened and it has come close a couple of times since then. Joshua, meanwhile, will fight in August and it might be Dillian Whyte. There is a rumour that Whyte wants too much for the fight; the flip side of that rumour is that Whyte was offered too little. In America, Deontay Wilder, twice beaten in classics by Fury, has not fought since last October. There is a plan, under the Saudi deal, for Wilder to fight Joshua in Saudi Arabia on the same night as Usyk and Fury fight. There is, so the paid publicists insist, a total purse of $400million on the table for the four boxers to split. It must be a strong table. There are bold plans right now for the deadlock to be broken soon and some concrete dates and fights to finally be announced. The traffic, as they say in the world of espionage, is heavy. Let’s hope for some fights – the old game needs the best heavyweights back in action and out of the back end of that horse suit.
