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

    To me it doesn’t make sense to fixate on the one community that you can’t participate in when there are plenty of others that are open to everyone.

    The crime, to the male view (including a shocking percentage of “allies”) lies in not wanting to hear the “pearls of wisdom” that men “inevitably” bring to conversations. And honestly, in the case of said “allies”, it’s not even really their fault. They’ve been brought up believing that men’s opinions have intrinsic value and must be expressed. That’s what patriarchy is in a nutshell, and men are just as much victims of it as women are.
