This community is first and foremost a feminist community for men and masc people, but it is also a place to talk about men’s issues with a particular focus on intersectionality.
Rules
Everybody is welcome, but this is primarily a space for men and masc people
Non-masculine perspectives are incredibly important in making sure that the lived experiences of others are present in discussions on masculinity, but please remember that this is a space to discuss issues pertaining to men and masc individuals. Be kind, open-minded, and take care that you aren't talking over men expressing their own lived experiences.
Be productive
Be proactive in forming a productive discussion. Constructive criticism of our community is fine, but if you mainly criticize feminism or other people's efforts to solve gender issues, your post/comment will be removed.
Keep the following guidelines in mind when posting:
- Build upon the OP
- Discuss concepts rather than semantics
- No low effort comments
- No personal attacks
Assume good faith
Do not call other submitters' personal experiences into question.
No bigotry
Slurs, hate speech, and negative stereotyping towards marginalized groups will not be tolerated.
No brigading
Do not participate if you have been linked to this discussion from elsewhere. Similarly, links to elsewhere on the threadiverse must promote constructive discussion of men’s issues.

Yes, useful for people trying to control it/them.
Or like you know to communicate.
Communicating to others how to treat who you're labeling.
Dude what are you talking about? I can spend a lot of time describing what I do for work, or I can use a label that describes my occupation. It won't 100% do the job, but will be sufficient most of the time, and if not I can elaborate. How do you even talk to people without using labels, are you happen to be Treebeard or something?
I'm gonna just let what you said yourself sink in for a while.
I see, you just in general anti clear communication, fair enough.
Says the guy who literally sent a sentence with no predicate.
Predicate is just a label used to control folks through grammar, something. Don't bee a sheep.
LMAO
So what is your motivation to take part in conversation without really interacting with folks you talk to? Just lonely?
I'll properly interact with someone when I catch some hint that they're above themselves. All of you who are immersed in life can just continue on without me.
Dang dude, how far are you up your own ass?
How far are YOU up my ass? You got any problems with my attitude? How are you affected? Maybe you should try your own ass out.
You are participating in discussions on public forums so you have to live with people finding your attitude odd.
That's fair.
