I’m a man who loved lurking the reddit sub. It was never about hating men, it was about being a woman in a man’s world. A good place to feel good and remember we can rely on people for support when systems work to our disadvantage.
It appeared on all,hot. Just as it did on reddit. Many times in the posts on reddit there were plenty of upvoted comment in fasion of “men are like…/men think… Etc” on some awful subjects. It was pretty sexist there. Like a way more extreme version of my sister having boyfriend problems then complaining to her girl friend. Maybe i’m just remembering wrong, it was a while ago as i soon after made an account and picked the few subreddits i cared about. Don’t worry, you won’t be seeing me here again. Have fun and remember men are human, just like women. Cheers
I actually wish you’d stay. Analyzing systemic patriarchal opression of women, internalized hatred of women and how it bleeds into our attitudes and way of thinking inevitably dabbles in generalization of the male behavior. I assure you 99% of women know not ALL men are the same. It’s the cultural implications that we need to look at. And culture is a general thing, applied in a bigger or lower degree to all individuals particularly in their childhoods.

Same here. And if the above commenter hated it so much, why join the Lemmy community lol?
I viewed the sub as a way to commiserate with like minded individuals! Twas nice to see others helping with these issues that matter to us women!
