You can be a woman and your opinions can still suck! They're not mutually exclusive.

If you're unhappy with a women's-only community with its own set of community guidelines, you don't have to be here.

My bad! This space isn't really ours because we didn't create it from scratch.

"Leave Lemmy because you can't have your own space! Because people like me will come and invade it after you asked me not to! 😎 haha gotcha!"

I have no expectation of privacy when posting in places like this. The men spectating while respectfully not commenting are watching you be a fucking embarrassment. "Look! Anyone can be a dickwad! Even me! Don't tell me not to comment! Hehehe!"

We get it. You suck and enjoy continually harassing women. Wow. Super. Congrats, I guess. Sincerely hope you repeatedly stub your smallest toe on every piece of furniture in your home.

"Hello! This is a women-only community! Please don't post here if you do not identify as a women or fall under the trans/enby umbrella! Thank you!"

you are screaming at passerbys that they cannot join your chat. You are walking up to them. Nobody is "talking over you".

You literally waltzed over into this community and got mad we said "no thank you"

🤡

I feel hostility when I see these threads

Why? Cuz we ask men not to post here?

We'll respect any community that wants it's own spaces.

Boundaries are not hostility. This community has been nothing but kind and respectful. Check every other thread in this place.

Me personally? In this thread? I'm absolutely being hostile. Absolutely.

Because, apparently, being nice doesn't fucking work! And now I've resorted to verbal violence!

Consider this a protest.

I don't wish for gay bars to be filled with straight men.

Perfect! There's a group meeting in a park. They are all in a circle chatting with each other. Is it your right to suddenly start inserting yourself into the discussion? Do you often do that to strangers talking amongst themselves?

Boundaries ≠ misandry.

Small group dedicated to a minority community ≠ misandry.

Do you often interject in amputee communities talking about their struggles? Cancer survivors? Abuse victims? Groups with a common experience that they'd like to share with people who often experience the same struggles trying to find solidarity in a community?

But no. Please talk over us!

Fuck off.

💖

They keep endlessly respawning. I'm tired, boss. I'm so tired.

"Hey ladies! SharkEatingBreakfast's boyfriend here! Since I'm a big strong man, I figured that maybe he'd listen better if he was talked to by a fellow man! Buddy, you're acting like an actual fucking moron right now! These bitches get positively hysterical when we invade their spaces! Let's talk about it over a beer, bro!" 🤜🤛

Oh my god, just say that you hate when a woman tells you "no"!!!!

You don't have to fake being your wife about it!

Yes, wise one, we know you can hear us! And our request for you was "you can listen, but please don't interrupt our ladies-only meeting!"

Christ, for someone who can't fucking read, you sure do post a lot.

I get it, but I'm not going to only talk about "safe" topics just because it makes men uncomfortable.

Women are not a political commodity.

I don't feel sorry for men who get hurt feelings over women putting down / requesting boundaries.

It’s like standing in the mall and shouting that the floor tile you’re on is yours and yours alone and then getting mad that someone says “ok”

No, it's like we requested a room in the community center for our meeting, and some fucking dumb-ass barges in, sits down, and inserts themself into our conversation!

Or! You could stay out of women-only spaces when requested! No?

I don't have the time or tools to host my own instance, so maybe just stay out of our fucking room until we do.

Yeah, we wrongly expected men to respect this space.

Guess that's too much to fucking ask.

You have the rest of this fucking website to do whatever you fucking want. And we have ONE single tiny space we respectfully requested you do not post to.

And yet. Here you are!

EDIT: Ladies, if there's not a lock on your door, regardless of the "please do not enter" sign, you can't just expect men not to enter! IT'S THEIR GOD-GIVEN RIGHT!!!!!

I'm sure people do. But it's not a "normal" thing that a majority of women do / think about.

Source: am woman. Have woman friends. Have woman siblings. Have woman parent. Have talked to other women before.

It's not a normal thing.

No. That is indeed not a normal thing that most women do.

I've literally heard someone say "You'll be discriminated against for being straight in the US!"

Nah, bruh. It's not your straightness that's the issue— it's your stupid-ass views & shit-fuck opinions.

it is like porn for them.

You think that seeing other women cheat on their partners is like porn for women?

They break up in the end.

He wants to cosplay poor, not actually be poor.
