[a sign reads FEMINIST CONFERENCE next to a closed door, a blue character shrugs and says…]
I don’t care

[next to the same door, the sign now says RESTRICTED FEMINIST CONFERENCE WOMEN ONLY, there are now four blue characters desperately banging on the door, one is reduced to tears on the floor, they are shouting]
DISCRIMINATION
SO UNFAIR!!!
LET US IINN!!
MISANDRY

      Men’s safe spaces are the default.

      Taking some examples from my personal life : most gyms, many sports clubs, most gaming communities, barbershops, men’s addiction recovery groups, are places where men can feel very comfortable being themselves and taking all the space without little to no pushback. Some have alt right dipshits, some don’t. Find the right ones.

      This comment thread is a prime example. Looking at the scores it’s implied that I should bow down to the needs of entitled men instead of having them work on themselves and curb their unhealthy need to have total control of everything everywhere. That’s what a male safe space looks like, so add Lemmy comment sections to the list above. Might feel hard to read, but I’m not one of those people who will pat you on the back just for existing. Being mad at the existence of women’s only spaces instead of looking for spaces that would fit you is unhealthy behavior. Other people are allowed to exist outside of your control. Work on yourself. If you can’t do it alone, try therapy. It worked for me.

        All those places are expected to accept women or become alt right shit holes. I am not even against women only spaces. I just wish we can have liberal men’s places.

        And no, I can’t afford therapy

          What do you think the numbers look like for girls being sexually harassed in school versus boys being sexually harassers in school? I know what the numbers have looked like in my classroom. I’ve seen boys get together in GROUPS, to sexually harass individual girls. To the point the girls had to change schools. Deep fake AI porn.

          There is one gender that this disproportionately affects, but y’all are children who seem to think that someone else’s pain being recognized is an attack on you.

          You fucking realize in the US that abortion is illegal and women are dying? That the president is a rapist, who bragged about raping women, and appointed other rapists? That shit like the SAVE act is deliberately engineered to deny women the right to vote?

            And I guess that is my fault?

            Honestly, fuck you by the way. Shit like this is why I did not even want to mention what happened to me because I knew people like would do this.

      Have a squizz for anything that mentions mental health. It’s like kryptonite to dipshits.
