Definitely would start some shit if we started using that outside of this community.

I'm not encouraging anyone to do so, but it would be worthy of some popcorn.

Actually, yeah.

I don't get enough DMs anyway.

Oh they slide into your DMs on a regular basis, too? Hahaha it's so predictable

Not toooo regular, but it happens.

I get scolded a lot for being too outspoken. Apparently I’m holding women back lol

Anyway, it can be fun to see the tantrums in my DMs so oh well.

I never get DMs i must be doing something wrong

Someone linked the book "Feminist Killjoy" in this comm recently. I highly recommend ;)

Saaame I feel left out.

Same here! What do I do to get DMs from whiny manosphere types?

Also fun ti respond to "men don't like it when -"

I'm more amused about it than anything. I will fully admit I used Reddit and similar sites for conversing and such before and my comments on Lemmy are very similar. But the amount of screeching manosphere types are SO LOUD on Lemmy! It's astonishing the kinds of things people say to me here.

I call out bullshit when I see it, but I'm rather kind and positive in general. So when I've got a message telling me that my attitude is why women should be subjugated or raped, I feel a little pride in upsetting a truly horrible person just by being myself.

Have you expressed that you are of the female persuasion? They need to know you are before they feel the need to correct you. Otherwise youre just a guy to them and will be ignored beyond a stupid comment.

Not all men but most men, and I say this as a NB AMAB.

That's the real clincher there. When someone even sees my clearly female name, I get mass downvotes on all my comments and posts.

Not really. I was joking about being jealous. 😉

No, but it could be server choice.

I'm doing this to the next man I speak to who doesn't fuck up, even if I have to be weird to a waiter.

Say it real saccharine sweet, too. “Oh why THANK YOU for being SO kind, y’know not all men are like this!”

Its can't get away with sweet. Not my vibe. I'm gonnasay it instead of thank you. Like 'wow this was really great service, not all men.' Or like 'and an order of baklava. Not all men.'

Hahahah that’s perfect

I like the cool people here more than I’m bothered by the assholes, I guess lol

Why are men 😔 I wish I could just bitchslap the toxic masculinity outta these fucks

Oh yeah who knows probably just driven by insecurity and anger, bypassing any sort of introspection and lashing out at others instead.

Nah I’m also fine without.

Territorial, maybe? Women are ‘invading their spaces’ (i.e. the job market, sports teams…) so they have to chase us away to defend their territory?

Right; they declared it their territory, all kids keep off the lawn, and then us women just stroll on in like we want jobs and money and hobbies and all the other stuff they said was theirs, no touchie!

And they don’t want every space as their space, just every one that gets them a good wage (defending hunting grounds?), or good recognition (keeping a higher place in the tribe?). Like, brewing beer and doing computer work (for example) were a woman’s space until men realized they could make a lot of money at that stuff.

FR I really think it’s a tribalism/territorial thing. I mean, pretty much all humans are kinda tribal/territorial but a lot of men seem to especially be so?

Always be nice to wait staff!

Not too boast but I regularly get called things like a "well known misandrist". I genuinely don't think they understand how proud I feel when incels call me that.

Damn, that label kinda goes hard. You should be proud hahaha

Lady Butterfly: Well Known Misandrist

My mate said she's gonna get mr a t shirt with that on. I'll wear the shit out of it

Yep! I've noticed women are more likely to get that. It's really obvious. I've had incels follow me round lemmy making passive aggressive remarks... I honestly feel sorry for them, all that hate and anger can't feel good for them. But they don't do the work on themselves that they need to do, so they're trapped with that anger eating them alive.

Same, same.

Nice from me creeps people out.

That’s the sweetest! I hope you share a pic here when it happens

Men can't stand it when a woman has more than them, whether being a supervisor in the workplace or being better than them at a skill or knowledge or any other metric. The men that don't act as threatened just consider themselves higher on the ladder. The ones that know they're at the bottom screech harder about women even existing in their spaces because of it.

It's damaging your cause (says man who hates you and your cause)

seems weird to just have a rule solely for tom holland but i get it
