[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

        Then build something instead of looking for people to blame.

              When I said I am not smart enough to do it I mean I do not know how to keep it from being toxic.

              Can’t even get a sub on lemmy or reddit without it turning to shit.

                I mean, do you honestly want a space for non dipshit men? Because like the other poster said, you would have a hard time being accepted into the spaces I’ve helped build.

                  What are those spaces then? Because I would at least would like a chance to try.

                  Edit: nm. I am not going to deal with someone who voted for stien with the nerve to call me a dumbass.
