These are some of the pictures used by UN women to show the sexist auto completes that come up based on real google searches

WOW! That's crazy!!!
-
Wtf...
-
I just want to point out, this is not Google's fault. Those auto completes are based on common searches performed by people... so it's the average Joe who we should scrutinize.
It's amazing these things are actually searched that often. It annoys me when people say feminism has no purpose anymore.

I just went and tried searching "Women shouldn't" and then "Men shouldn't".
Top search for "Women Shouldn't": Work
Top search for "Men Shouldn't": Eat soy....

Google's autocompletes are hilarious and disturbing no matter what you look up. If you ever want to lose faith in humanity, try it.

I did a couple, and I just have to laugh so I don't get upset. Thankfully I don't know any of these people in my day-to-day life.

@pui: yes the article is not blaming google. It is just shedding light on the things people commonly search for regarding women
-
Wow, this is really disturbing..
-
@swurlygurl: haha, women love jared padalecki a lot! I agree!
-
@Mrsbells: I just wanted to clarify it incase people thought this was somehow Google's doing.
I've seen people do it before lol.

@pui: My top search result for "women shouldn't" was "lift weights". Haha.
My top search result for "men shouldn't" was "marry". Equally funny.
