I love all these comments like this woman is asking, cares, or is even interested. "I totally probably would." Okay, but would she??? Why do they think this woman wants to be someone's last call when she could be someone's first choice? If I looked at a picture of a regular guy and my fat ass was like, "Hmm, I mean, if I was drunk, and I had no options, I guess I'd take him home" I'd be dragged, and rightfully so. 😂

the guy who made that comment is in this post right now saying “you don’t know the women or NBs i associate with [or if i make them uncomfortable]”

meanwhile in this post are several women and NBs saying “yeah that made me uncomfortable” 😭 listening to women is hard for misogynistic actors i guess.

fortunately the mods over at [email protected] are doing their job to wack this guy.

thats what happens when you build a community with a large percentage of shut-in nerds and software devs (speaking as one of the latter)

[–] [email protected] 8 points 6 days ago

yeah, i try to think of it as an opportunity. i usually try to focus my efforts on encouraging growth and recognizing the hurt thats caused.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 days ago

This is essentially why I'd like more "normies" here
(or option 2: maybe I should just avoid online spaces with the (sexist/weird) kind of people I avoid IRL)

[–] [email protected] 21 points 6 days ago

[email protected] has a big problem with openly misogynistic users making “jokes” in the comments.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 6 days ago (2 children)

The men ain't sending their best, folks.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 days ago

They’re sending rapists—and some of us, I assume, are good people

I feel like it depends on the instance, .world is mostly male liberals (who will occasionally act sexist) while Blahaj.zone is mostly Transfem :3

(Btw I wouldnt tolerate any of those comments on c/Trans)

[–] Ziglin 5 points 6 days ago (2 children)

I did not know that. Where are these demographics from? (More male users doesn't really surprise me, that seems to be common in the places I'm interested in)

i seriously think i have to revisit who im attracted to because cis-women sometimes just don't vibe with my lifestyle anymore. I've been online for too long and its changed my personality. I have had relationships with women who would find these comments funny and acceptable, and i would kinda go "eugh" at them and second guess my feelings.

Which instance was this on?

[–] [email protected] 15 points 6 days ago (1 children)

[email protected] which someone else said has a problem with this sort of thing. wasn’t personally aware it was localized.

[–] TotallynotJessica 18 points 6 days ago

.world users suck compared to blahaj.zone. With .ml, you get tankies, but with .world, you get more transphobes and lib normies. I spend all my time here, getting shocked by what's normalized when I visit other instances. The people here can be horny, but are much more likely to respect boundaries if told.

Oh shit, I've seen this (yours) post a few hours ago, but just now I noticed that's Lemmy...
I thought that was from Reddit at first.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 days ago

I'm glad that every time I see a "girls are boring/well-adjusted, boys are quirky" meme format someone has already commented on that, but it always comes with multiple "it's just a meme dude, don't overthink it" responses.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 days ago

What the fuck?

[–] UnhingedFridge 6 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

The only thing I could think of when I saw that was worry about her own self-image... obviously won't comment trash like that unless providing context to further thoughts -

So long as she's happy or in the pursuit of her own personal happiness (even if not and just doing what she can do get through this shitty life,) whatever she looks like is none of my fucking business ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Sucks to think of the unnecessary abuse she has to put up with from day to day.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

fortunately i don’t think she browses lemmy, and i’ve seen the comments under the original video from where the image was pulled—they are all much kinder.

which is good news for her but the fact there was such a big pattern here is deeply troubling.

[–] SpiceDealer 5 points 6 days ago

I saw this very post just a few moments ago. Holy shit, these guys can't keep it in their pants.

[–] HessiaNerd 7 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Who is this? They look familiar.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 6 days ago
