[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

    Ugh… I fear for the future of my sex. Sometimes, I want to slap some basic respect into other guys. Nothing fancy or philosophical, just “don’t be a dick, leave other human beings in peace” kind of common sense. Yet it feels like a losing battle.

    The problem isn’t restricted to one sex/gender. I may have commented below, with what I can confidently say is a politically unpopular opinion, but the discussion quickly degenerated into claims that I was ‘mansplaining’ and being told to ‘fuck off’ and shut up.

      Perhaps not.

      …And yeah, there’s all sorts of flavors of hostility even here on Lemmy.

      But the manosphere seems to be “winning” their culture war, at least here in the US, compared to whatever the equivalent problem on the other end is. That feels like the bigger problem.
