We are a women’s only community, so please no male comments.

Edit: thanks all for reporting the hostile remarks! You really are an amazing group of people. Really appreciate how positive so many men have been as well. I see you all and value you ❤️

    I’m not complaining, just pointing out an irony. Besides that, being banned for speaking out against sexism is a good thing for me.

      It would only be ironic if the women of Lemmy were the most powerful people on the platform and used that power to silence men across the website. As it stands, women are a superminority on the fediverse, and men have the numbers to run roughshod on these communities and effectively prevent them from being spaces where women communicate with each other. This is an ongoing concern on c/witchesvspatriarchy, where thread after thread gets derailed from its original purpose by men. The goal isn’t to censor you so much as defend ourselves. So it’s not ironic.

      Especially since c/menslib could make its community men-only and you wouldn’t hear any complaining from me.
