I'm not a woman

almost all the subs that "are women" are basically astroturfed by men, or some of them are male users posting as a "woman"

Can somebody explain to me a thing about anti-feminism: as a 99.5% cishet standard regular manly man man, even from an extremely cold, selfish, objective, all-for-me approach I cannot understand what I stand to gain by this. What's the point?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 hours ago

Nothing. The only people that gain anything from strict gender roles are the rich, and they use them to create disparities and depress wages.

Lemmy has an undeniable woman problem that it carried over from Reddit. I've lost count of the number of pathetic blokes that I have blocked on here for anti feminism.

yep it's pretty horrible. any time gender issues are brought up there's dozens of comments saying "what about the men" and completely missing the point

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 hours ago

The response to "what about men" comments is, we're already talking about men when we talk about misogyny. Misandry and misogyny are the exact same problem, strictly enforced gender roles. If you deviate, you are punished. The men that are caregivers are derided just like the women that refuse to rear children. Every other related paradigm punches down into the people who do not conform. Stoicism in men, histrionics in women.

Either is a foil for the other and it's exactly the same bullshit.

Speaking in general: Creating communities/instances is easy. Moderating them is hard.

In particular: I would love to create women's spaces. But then I'd have to be on the lookout for the Knights of the True Fedora. They're out there. Somewhere. Now now, I'm not suggesting it'd be a daily problem! ...But the actual daily problems (regular spam and whatnot) would suck too.

I'm in charge of [email protected] I've got to say the vast majority of men have been fantastically supportive! Odd comment and spite downvote but it's manageable
