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.

What about unfuckable women? Do men ever feel threatened by them to the point of feari g for their lives???
You pretend this is one sided but it is literally not the same for women dating as it is for men.
To believe otherwise is incredibly ignorant.
The vast majority of men never consider physical violence against them in a relationship.
The good men arent afraid to admit that men in general need to do a lot better job of respecting women.
You claim: "In other words what you’re saying is women don’t have to be responsible for anything, they can act any way they want. "
No one is saying this. You assumed this. Your assumption is simply incorrect.
This is the definition of a strawman. You're fitting an argument the other person never made.
Except this thread is chock full of you all doing this exact thing.
Listen, nothing will change that there are shitty men out there. Nothing will change that there are also shitty women out there. If you can’t find a decent guy it isn’t because they don’t exist, it’s because YOU aren’t attracting them. This is a YOU problem.
Only it isnt and you're projecting cuz UK you're completely wrong.
Projecting? More like you’re deflecting.
You’re the hateful one here. You’re the angry one. You need a nap.
Oh really what did I say that is hateful? You're still projecting 100% or you just can't read haha.
