90% of it is just misandrist bait, and its just an echochamber of misandry.

Locking. Rule 1 - Sealioning!

Speaking as a man: Stop white knighting my gender.

We don't need your protection or worry.

Women making jokes on our expense does not hurt us.

I checked out their feed since I figured I must have missed a big burst of bad content, but I don't see anything misandrist. I see a few posts critical of certain men, but even that's the minority of content.

Even going through comments I see only a healthy amount of misandry. I don't see any organizing of violence against all men, or even normalizing of it.

If you're feeling triggered by the things you see in a space meant for an oppressed class to vent then I think you're just too sensitive.

Hey OP, just wanted to pop in to see how your attempt to garner support for your shitass take on an online space that isn’t meant for you was going.

looks around

Yup. Pretty much what I thought.

Yeah talking about what we would pair with a sweater or talking about our Monday motivations or supporting DKP’s garden adventures is total misandry. You got us.

[-] dkppunk@piefed.social 11 points 5 days ago

Fuck yeah! I appreciate all the gardening support!! 💚

[-] velma@sh.itjust.works 8 points 5 days ago

I hope you post more pics soon! The weather has turned gorgeous where I am, I hope your plants are enjoying it too :)

[-] dkppunk@piefed.social 9 points 5 days ago

They are doing really well. I’ll have to get some up on the next motivation Monday or weekend post :)

My luffas are luffaing!!

Simply, no it isn't. I took a look, it's honestly a nice community and doesn't look like "an echochamber of misandry" Saying this as a guy btw

[-] HerbalGamer@sh.itjust.works 32 points 5 days ago

If you don't identify as a woman, it doesn't matter whatever the fuck is going on in there because it clearly says it's not about you.
Until they start brigading other communities I see no reason why men should even care, let alone actively engage.

[-] Watermark710@piefed.social 20 points 5 days ago

Seriously. I saw that it was a space for women, and since I'm not a woman I blocked the community so I don't accidentally comment in a community where I'm not wanted. If the ladies need a space to vent, there's nothing wrong with that.

I haven't noticed a prevalence of that there. Checking it just now I can't find a single example of misandry. Maybe you are just misreading the vibe.

[-] one_step_behind@quokk.au 24 points 5 days ago

But do I tag this user as "troll" or "misogynist"?

[-] one_step_behind@quokk.au 12 points 5 days ago

Yeah, this is even better.

[-] hypnicjerk@lemmy.world 15 points 5 days ago

maybe post some examples of what you find distasteful, OP?

[-] velma@sh.itjust.works 18 points 5 days ago

He wouldn’t be able to misrepresent what that community actually is about if he did that.

Louder for the back!

Misandry isn’t the reverse of misogyny. There’s no anti-men power structures being kept in place by women, there isn’t women-dominated governments stripping men of their rights, there’s no systemic violence against men perpetuated by women in power.

There are certainly individuals that hate men, but misandry simply doesn’t exist the same way misogyny does.

Thank you for your comment.

[-] Sunsofold@lemmings.world 9 points 5 days ago

To be precise, misandry exists, but it doesn't have the same societal support that mysogyny does. Both exist, but one has a noticeable effect in the broader world where as the other mostly has effects only in limited spaces where the individual has enough control to override the default power imbalance.

[-] velma@sh.itjust.works 14 points 5 days ago

Thank you for expanding on my comment.

Institutional misandry doesn’t exist is the more precise parent statement.

I'm not a woman and it's none of my business what happens on womanstuff so I blocked it.
