Hey all! A male supporter has offered to open a community called WomensStuffSupporters that all genders can reply to. That gives men somewhere to show support that isn’t here and also make here easier to moderate.
There’s the option to X post from one to another, which is wouldn’t want to happen automatically as some people wouldn’t like that.
What do you all think of the idea? I’ll leave this post up for a while before a decision is made.
Edit: you can message me if you don’t want to say publicly. I won’t let people know you contacted me, I’d just potentially say someone messaged saying they did/didn’t want it
yeah, I almost mentioned that the possibility of men x-posting and discussing women-only community posts is still there, but I figured why encourage or automate it - part of the point of a women-only community is to alleviate pressure from men, to have a space where you don’t have to deal with men’s perspectives or feel like men are going to react to your comments, and so on.
So if that’s part of the purpose of this community, x-posting every post to a mirror community where men are commenting on every woman’s post feels like a violation of that purpose.
