just thought about how weird it would be to think about how a man or woman on the bottom southern hemisphere of the moon, would be standing upside down to us on earth i think lol

It doesn’t work like that. As you probably know we’re in a synchronous rotation with the moon. Polar north and south of the moon is relative to the sun not earth. You can think of “up” as away from the center of the earth and “down” as toward the center of earth. So depending on where you’re standing on earth if you draw a straight line from the center of the earth (or as close to the center of the earth as a straight line allows) through your body and then directly to the moon wherever that line hits, which depends on your position on earth, would be what you’re thinking of as upside down relative to earth (meaning your place on earth)
