Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.

Rules…

  1. Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Anyone under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is free to decide whether a women's community is a good fit for them.
  2. Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
  3. Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
  4. No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
  5. New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.

Ahh, so white men are finally developing some social awareness. That's excellent news, thank you for sharing, Fox.

The only fear is for my fellow blue collar white workers to find out I'm not as fascist or pedo-loving as they are.

Every time I see your username I drool, vanilla pudding fudge sounds like heaven in my mouth

I mean... Good? We nowadays have these things called "societal norms", which means everyone needs to think before they open their big stupid mouths.

You know what real pros do? They were already aware of this, and were already doing this.

If you have to be taught these lessons now, well, take it as a learning opportunity. Expand your horizons. Enhance your compassion.

Why - did they hear people had eggshells they don't want walked on?

Shitting on men

No male comments

With all due respect, I do not believe this should be allowed, should it?

Terrible when men do this, no better when done by women

[–] ZDL@lazysoci.al 11 points 3 weeks ago (8 children)

Gotta love this take on "shitting on".

You: "Endure" mild criticism of broadcasting your point of view 24×7 in every conceivable locale (to the point you're broadcasting it now in a group explicitly asking you not to do it).

We: Endure non-stop sexist comments, sexual advances, sexual assaults and, upon suggesting that perhaps this is not such a good idea, get dog-piled by men with hurt fee-fees, get doxxed, get threats of active sexual assault, and in extreme cases take beatings and even get murdered.

We are not the same. Our concerns are not the same. Don't be a putz and pretend they are.

Lol. Lmfao. Hahahahaha

[–] Taleya@aussie.zone 8 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Well we could just chase you off with horrifically abusive commentary, doxxing, rape threats and the usual methods but it seemed like too much work.

Don’t take the rage bait

[–] celeste@kbin.earth 11 points 3 weeks ago

Depends what they're on eggshells about. I know the implication of how it's worded in the screenshot, but I'm going to be pedantic and say it depends. Boss cranky because of personal problems? Nah. They want to make racist jokes constantly? Yeah. Quit it.

I'm really looking forward coming back to this community tomorrow, with the knowledge that many deeply unpleasant people have been banned and will not be around anymore.

The moderators of this community do an exquisite job. Rules are enforced, but with kindness. All rule breaking is treated as an honest mistake, unless proven otherwise.

Even though this thread is filled with vitriol, there is no censorship. No comments were removed by moderators. Bans are not applied retroactively.

Thanks so much for the work you do for this community! Keep it up! ❤️❤️❤️

Fuck off with this bullshit! I'm white and bald with a beard. I'm doing just fine. The trick is being on the correct side.

[–] Hikermick@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago (3 children)

The irony. I'm a man feel free to ban me

Gotta love a victim complex. So attractive. 🙄

I wonder if the Fox News thing was from before or after compliance task forces started confiscating posters from the workplace that had sayings like "Spread Kindness Everywhere" bc it promotes harmful DEI?

Bc I feel like even if that had ever been true, it really just doesn't hit the same these days when everybody has to walk on eggshells as they learn what all was included in diversity, equity, and inclusion.

Oh, you're the first in your family to go to college? You think men can be nurses too? You think it was kind of fucked up they just fired Carol after 30 yrs bc she had cancer and would need to take leave? You best shut your mouth with that woke bullshit.

I don't think it's that bad anymore, but there definitely was a time during the late 2010s where the man-hating got a bit too much in my opinion. Maybe I was just exposed to it more due being in an industry that attracts a lot of hyper idealistic people who are oddly comfortable being very antagonistic toward white men especially. According to my boyfriend, he hasn't really seen or experienced any of the behavior I was witnessing evolving over the years but he is also not really part of "my world" so to speak.

I think it very much depend on what environment you're in. Just like there has been a lot of focus on women harassed at their male dominated workplace. It's definitely real and they definitely have experienced that, but it doesn't mean it is a 100% universal experience. I personally haven't experienced harassment from men in the workplace, but there definitely are women out there who haven't been so lucky. It really comes down to what the work culture is and whether it is built on mutual respect or bully-like hierarchies. The latter is the type of work environment I will avoid like the plague until I die.

Anyway, I am sure that there are white men out there who feel antagonized at work, but it's not universal and it is most likely in very specific areas where the work culture adheres to the most extreme fringes of leftwing ideology. Could also be in the opposite of that if the white man doesn't live up to whatever they think makes a man a man in the extreme rightwing workplaces these days.
