This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you’re here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we’ve got you covered.
I feel like men can do all of those things, so I don’t see why we are excluding them. Just because it’s a women-centric community doesn’t mean they shouldn’t be allowed. I think we should exclude people who are bigoted instead, or even people who just don’t “get” women’s issues.
Aside: I’m personally irritated that make-up is what’s considered a woman-centric topic. That’s kind of reductive – not everyone is femme.
Honestly I think a majority of the men commenting don’t even notice the community they’re posting in, let alone read the rules. It happens a lot when a post reaches /c/all and a flood of outside users suddenly are interacting with the post.
Luckily this means a lot of them are not too impolite about it (even if some of them get defensive).
Between the jumping-spider-reflexes of the mod team and, yeah, the actually pretty level-headed responses of the men I’ve seen who’ve stumbled here, this has been pretty good. I was expecting to see a whole lot of manosphere rage in the modlog and … haven’t.
This is a nice place!
