I feel hostility when I see these threads
Why? Cuz we ask men not to post here?
We'll respect any community that wants it's own spaces.
Boundaries are not hostility. This community has been nothing but kind and respectful. Check every other thread in this place.
Me personally? In this thread? I'm absolutely being hostile. Absolutely.
Because, apparently, being nice doesn't fucking work! And now I've resorted to verbal violence!
Consider this a protest.
I don't wish for gay bars to be filled with straight men.
They keep endlessly respawning. I'm tired, boss. I'm so tired.
I get it, but I'm not going to only talk about "safe" topics just because it makes men uncomfortable.
Women are not a political commodity.
I don't feel sorry for men who get hurt feelings over women putting down / requesting boundaries.
This is a women-only discussion community. If you do not identify as a women or fall under the umbrella cited in the community sidebar, then please refrain from posting or replying.
We're fighting a losing battle. This is a space where we are very clearly not wanted, and we cannot discuss women's issues without hostility.
Keep it limited to makeup and fashion, I guess, unless you want to be brigaded!
I'm over it. Let the boys have their playground. Lemmy is not a space that is welcoming to women, and, because of that, unless sweeping changes are made, I just don't see myself ever recommending it to any women as a good place to make a community.
I'm not going to contribute to its growth or content any longer. "PROGRESSIVE" space. Garbage. Absolute fucking hypocrisy. I'm so sick of having to explain myself and be made to feel like I need to justify my existence here.
Good luck, sisters. I'm desperate for community, but this feels more like a battleground than it does a home.
We appreciate the sideline supporters who respect the community rules & expectations and are respectful enough to not interject. You are very much loved and respected, brothers. 🫶
EDIT: This community & its moderators have been nothing but kind & respectful to men who post here, and are constantly shit on & downvoted because of it.
I have resorted to being hostile! And I see very little difference in how this is being received compared to them.
My blood pressure too high rn.
EDIT 2: Mods.. I'm sorry for leaving you to find this dumpster fire of a thread! I gotta go to bed and I'm sick of trying to explain things to people who don't actually care or want to understand.
Women: attempt to foster & curate their own community to talk about women-centric issues and experiences without being drowned out by majority voices
The rest of Lemmy:
I'm sure people do. But it's not a "normal" thing that a majority of women do / think about.
Source: am woman. Have woman friends. Have woman siblings. Have woman parent. Have talked to other women before.
It's not a normal thing.
I've literally heard someone say "You'll be discriminated against for being straight in the US!"
Nah, bruh. It's not your straightness that's the issue— it's your stupid-ass views & shit-fuck opinions.
it is like porn for them.
You think that seeing other women cheat on their partners is like porn for women?
You don't have to be LBGTQA+ to join Blahaj! Allies are just as welcome in the space! (:
Gee, buddy boy, wish I fuckin' could!
For those not in know: it's like telling someone with a broken ankle to "just walk". That's why it's important to know that ADHD should be treated like any other handicap.
I've always imagined neurotypicals to have more of their senses working together in harmony. Less prone to brain overloading or de-syncing, you know?
Always envious to see people I know interacting with others so casually. "You mean you don't have to rehearse a script before talking to others?? You just go in raw??? No intense anxiety or anything??? That's bonkers.." That kind of thing. Lol
There are 2 types of ADHD: ADHD (hyperactive) and ADHD-PI (primarily inattentive). I have ADHD-PI, which does not really manifest hyperactivity. More like the "I can't drive once my meds wear off because I'll get distracted and drive up a curb"-type.
Executive dysfunction is a major part of my diagnosis, as well.
Not saying that you absolutely have ADHD, but it's something to be mindful of if you find that its hugely affecting your life in a negative way.
My kid has been begging for watermelon since last summer, when he did a 180 from despising it to being absolutely desperate for it.
My younger sister had this issue! (and would also sometimes eat it 🤢). Did it until her first year of high school.
My mom borrowed a microscope for our schooling, and my little sister had the funny idea to put a booger on a slide to take a look.
We both looked and were absolutely horrified at what we saw that day. Never saw her pick her nose ever again.
It's a bolt on the hinge of a folding chair. No idea what the actual proper name for it is, though.
Can it be removed without destroying it or any part of the chair itself?
Any advice is appreciated! Thank you!

>It's literally the most natural thing in the world to equate reproductive effectiveness to worth. All life is "worth" their reproductive effectiveness. So not having sex is very relevant to our entire existence as a species.
>As such, our mental faculties put a heavy punishment in the form of mental pain, i.e. "self-worth attached to getting laid", on this whole thing.
>This has very little to do with societal expectations. It's simple biology. Not getting laid is supposed to be one of the worst things for an organism.
>You're rationally right with what you say, but it's simply not very relevant. Rationality does not help with our most deeply rooted biological desires. The only thing that helps is getting them fulfilled, i.e. having sex."
From the Blackpill incel thread
I can't tell I'm just too ace to comprehend this. Is this a thing? Do women feel this? I argued it's more of a "societal expectation" thing and was countered with.. this.
Not saying this user is wrong, I just am having a difficult time understanding this.
"Our most deeply rooted biological desires" has me squinting real hard. Do women feel this way, too? Idk I'm absolutely confused af
EDIT: Please do NOT brigade the blackpill thread. No touch. Seriously.
Realization achieved: it's not an incel discussion thread: it's now an incel defense thread. What a fuckin' waste ffs..

I'd feel bad eating this cute pizza, though....... for many reasons.
