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.

"STEVEN CROWDER, THE right-wing podcaster, is getting a divorce. “No, this was not my choice,” Crowder told his online audience last week. “My then-wife decided that she didn’t want to be married anymore — and in the state of Texas, that is completely permitted.” "

So she should be stuck with this asshole for the rest of her life? And what kind of bullshit marriage would that look like.

These clowns have no business dictating how people should live their lives.

Their unironic answer is yes. These people are religious fanatics and/or raging control freaks who want the privilege of deciding how everyone else lives.

It's funny (well "funny"), the right wing podcasts my brother listens to was recently going off about how you need to train women and they can't even think without a Real Man™. And these fuckers are sitting screeching calling LGTBQ folks they're groomers at the same time. It's been sucking off Trump a lot lately but the misogyny makes regular appearances. These aren't obscure channels either.

What do you expect? They don't view women as anything more than brood mares

Omg. I'm not surprised, but it's still disgusting to see. Now this dumb fucking clown is on some mission to use state laws to force women into servitude.
