Oops, the TikTok I dropped my feminist literature books meme goes trending again, but this time, among K-pop fans. Who would have thought that this trend would reach K-pop TikTok and, to add more, a fanboy speaking truths about girl group stans? If you want to know how this trend started and how it came to the K-pop stan world, here’s everything you need to know about it. Sit tight and read ahead to find out if you’re the ‘right crowd’ for this one.
What Is The I Dropped My Feminist Literature Trend About?
After seeing it the first time, it had us wondering what the “oh, I dropped my feminist literature books” was all about. Up until now, there’s still lingering confusion and doubt about what the trend was supposed to mean, but we might have unlocked what this meme is and why it went viral.
We believe that the trend came from user profpippy in a video he posted way back in May 2023. In the video, he pushed his books to fall on the floor and started saying, “Oh, my feminist literature books.” He turned the camera back to him as he flexed his visual while talking, “Not my feminist literature books. Man.” Then, the video ends.
@profpippy im so clumsy 😭😭 probably bc im 6’2 lol
- We interpreted it as, somehow, a way for a person to appeal to someone’s heart — by probably using the same interest or values that the other person likes or upholds. The comment section strengthened our understanding of the I dropped my feminist literature books meme. It has been flooded with jokes about how he helped their cat get out of a tree or thanked him for lending their beach house.
The TikTok trend basically shows off something that may help you get noticed by anyone or someone you like. As for profpippy, the feminist literature books may help him to find someone who advocates feminism. The TikTok user’s video caption also jokingly hints and flexes his height of 6-foot-2, saying, “I’m so clumsy [two crying emojis] probably bc I’m 6’2 lol.”
- The original clip from profpippy garnered around 500K likes, while a stitch video from TikTok user Keith Holland Jr amassed over 1M likes for his version. The two have been stitching their videos to respond to one other, which had viewers expecting for more of this interaction. Hmm, they somehow look alike though…
@imkeithholland I dropped them teehee🥴 #keith #imkeithholland #fyp #mustache #majestic #rizz #respect #women
A lot of TikTok users already used the sound to flex their feminist literature books and visuals. Given that the trend came early this year, it’s expected that it will lay low around this time. However, K-pop TikTok (and stan Twitter, too) probably have different plans. Rather than books, K-pop fans showed off their favorites (idols and groups) using their physical albums. Yes, they dropped their albums to show who they are — we meant who they are. Here’s how it went viral among fans!
This TikTok User Made A Discussion For K-pop Fans
We saw vinyl records of Taylor Swift and Lana Del Rey, anime-related stuff, mangas, and real literature books. With many variations of the TikTok ‘I dropped my feminist literature books’ trend, the K-pop one sure caught the fans’ attention. A TikTok user, Blasianwhite, created a PSA video for all the male K-pop stans out there doing the viral trend.
The K-pop fan continued that if it’s their LE SSERAFIM, IVE, and aespa albums on the ground, he’s pretty sure it’s not going to work because of the ‘wrong crowd.’
@blasianwhite Like lets be realistic with ourselves for a minute on who you can and cant attract #kpop #kpopmemes
He even mentioned trying to get girls who are Yunjin, Yujin, and Karina biased and completing the statement, “You aren’t their target demographic, brother.”
The fan asked these guys to shake things up for it to work for them. He suggested trying ATEEZ, BTS, and GOT7 albums for the ‘Oh, I dropped my feminist literature books’ trend.
- But why did he say so? He believes that girl group stans, specifically those who biased these groups and idols, may be interested in girls — hence, the ‘wrong crowd.’ He continued stating more groups than fans are believed to be ‘for women only’ like MAMAMOO, WJSN The Black, DREAMCATCHER, and LOONA, among others.
- MAMAMOO and DREAMCATCHER are known groups to be women magnets. We can say that almost all their fans are part of the LGBTQ+ community and are interested in women. Many in the comments section acknowledged that the video is spitting facts, and they have at least one of the idols and groups mentioned in the video as their bias or stan group.
As of this writing, Blasianwhite’s video already reached over 105K likes and 450K views after two days of posting. We are certain that it will continue to grow in the following days, as it just started to go viral on K-pop Twitter.
Fans React on K-pop Stan Twitter
The video even reached stan Twitter, with more fans joining the discussion. A MAMAMOO stan can’t get enough of how the K-pop fan struggled to say and use the group as an example without laughing. He successfully completed his lines for MAMAMOO after three tries, but with DREAMCATCHER, he just laughed it all out.
the laughing at the mamamoo mention is so real 😭😭 pic.twitter.com/OT5dH4etlX

Some were confused about what was happening, others are probably laughing all over the floor now, while some just flexed their albums, the exact MAMAMOO, DREAMCATCHER, and WJSN The Black ones from the TikTok user’s video. It’s probably that accurate for the K-pop fan below; oh, to be attacked just like that?
the kpop feminist literature guy's video was funny idgaf😭

But he wasn’t joking, as many did agree with what he said in the video. Some even said that the three gayest fandoms are MAMAMOO’s, DREAMCATCHER’s, and LOONA’s. Also, they said that these women are made for women; we don’t think they are lying, though.
Deukae mamamoo and loona stans possibly the most lesbian fandoms there are like he's so right

Me a gg stan watching him name all my biases : yes guys it's true…those girls are for the GIRLS

With all the reactions the fan got, it’s safe to say that what he was saying is already confirmed. Although, fans must keep in mind that it still should not be generalized. Sure, many K-pop fans of these idols and groups may not be straight, but it does not necessarily dictate their gender identity.
As for those K-pop male stans, perhaps Blasianwhite and the people confirming the video helped you in finding the ‘right crowd’ for you. But continue listening to these girl groups’ music; it’s worth listening to!
