Club and bar culture has always had unspoken rules. Women get priority at the bar, they claim the elevated platforms for dancing, and men typically hang back, letting the women shine and maybe going up to them for a dance, a chat, or to offer a drink.
But according to a growing chorus of frustrated clubgoers on TikTok, those dynamics have completely flipped, and many say it's not for the better.
Women call out men for dominating club spaces
A trend is emerging on social media showing men taking over the very spaces that were traditionally reserved for women to dance and be seen.
In a viral video, Jusnene (@jusnene2) delivered a passionate rant about the shift she's witnessed in club culture.
"When the [expletive] have you ever seen men wanna be on the stage shaking they [expletive], looking out to the crows. I ain't never seen that," Jusnene said. "It was always the girls on stage, the girls in the center, the girls at the top. Men were just waiting to see who's gonna get messed up enough to want to dance with them. Not rushing the [expletive] stage."
"This is why club culture is dead because men have become the women," Jusnene said.
Jusnene goes further, connecting this club behavior to broader relationship dynamics.
"I thought it was just in the relationships of them wanting to be pampered and wanting to be the prize. It's even in the clubs when y'all ain't got nobody. I'll be damned if I look up at my man that's on the goddamn stage," she went on.
The issue extends beyond just taking up platform space. Jusnene reminisces about how club culture used to work, when women got in free before 11 p.m., ladies drank free, and drinks were cheap and strong.
The trend is widespread
Other women have been posting their own experiences with this trend.
Kiera (@festivalkiera) posted footage showing six guys standing on an elevated platform in a club, barely moving to the music. Text overlay reads, "FYI: no one wants to see 6 straight dudes do nothing on an elevated surface." In her caption, she writes, "Go back to the ground where you belong."

Women are calling out straight men for “ruining” club culture: “America really has become Ken’s mojo dojo casa house”
"I need a man to tell me why this has shifted."
