We are a women’s only community, so please no male comments.

Edit: thanks all for reporting the hostile remarks! You really are an amazing group of people. Really appreciate how positive so many men have been as well. I see you all and value you ❤️

    Gotta love this take on “shitting on”.

    You: “Endure” mild criticism of broadcasting your point of view 24×7 in every conceivable locale (to the point you’re broadcasting it now in a group explicitly asking you not to do it).

    We: Endure non-stop sexist comments, sexual advances, sexual assaults and, upon suggesting that perhaps this is not such a good idea, get dog-piled by men with hurt fee-fees, get doxxed, get threats of active sexual assault, and in extreme cases take beatings and even get murdered.

    We are not the same. Our concerns are not the same. Don’t be a putz and pretend they are.

      Hey, I am genuinely sympathetic to your concerns, and there’s no need to make it an attack. Moreover, I’m not supportive of people saying anything without regards of how it affects others - I genuinely despise people doing what you describe.

      I’m only calling for basic ethics while you’re at it - it’s never a good idea to go after a certain extremely wide and diverse group of people (white men, in this case, but can be any other) and then restrict them from setting the record straight. Everyone has the right to stand up for themselves.

      Without it, we get violent echo chambers that get more and more detached from reality, and also anger those that are targeted to no benefit, which is antithetical to a productive change.

      Think of the manosphere bullshit that goes extremely violent, has absolutely nothing of valid substance and drowns any female voices. This is it. This is what you get over time if you ignore the other side.

      And this is why male voices are going to spring up here - and women are gonna keep rightfully attacking the manosphere. No one needs the escalation of bullshit and angering that happens with it.
