Lemmy is a worse platform for women than Reddit was EDIT this link is an OLD POST that contains my thesis on the state of lemmy and is not the context of the much more recent comment in the screenshot. sorry for any confusion caused by this juxtaposition, my main goal with having this linked is to expose how nothing has improved

Ugh.

I just wish misogynistic comments/voice logs could be taped to abusers' foreheads.

Hello, I'm a teenager from a third world country. I surely don't like the way women are treated, and how society gives natural advantage to men. I want to be different, do something different. Do you have any tips on how my dumb self can act better in this area?

totally! i always recommend bell hooks’ the will to change as beginning material :) it’s not too long, is written in a way that is embracing of men wanting to do good, and it’s available free at the internet archive: https://archive.org/download/the-will-to-change-men-masculinity-and-love-by-bell-hooks-z-lib.org.epub/The%20Will%20to%20Change%20Men%2C%20Masculinity%2C%20and%20Love%20by%20bell%20hooks%20%28z-lib.org%29.epub.pdf
