im so sick of seeing reports regarding men posting in women-only communities and i cant help but get annoyed with these guys.

the rules are clearly presented. either youre not paying attention or youre just an asshole who purposefully throws their opinion in a place explicitly not wanting it.

what the fuck is wrong with you guys?

    Community rules are community rules, and you can either follow them or get banned from the community. How is ‘women only’ any different?

    As for the excuse of visibility: the rule is very often in the title, and the initial post, yet not followed.

    As for the excuse of how they can tell: well if they can’t, okay, you evaded detection. But posts very often declare “I’m a guy and this is my take…”

    I honestly don’t get it, especially on an internet “refuge” like Lemmy where users should be sensitive to persecution and the importance of safe, moderated discussion spaces.

      Is that why you came to Lemmy? For “safe, moderated discussion”?

      I feel like the overwhelming majority of “refugees” were escaping heavy-handed moderation.

        I came so I wouldn’t be randomly shadowbanned by Reddit because it thinks I’m a spambot, heh.

        And because it has human, cozy mods, not the corporate feel of big subs.

        I guess I’m saying that I don’t picture people coming here to harass small communities with rules they don’t like, as there was a lot of that on Reddit too.
