Other sites?

[howwillthispanout]

Not sure if this has been asked before and I have looked myself but find some sites hard to navigate re topics etc..but have other sites such as NM had any debates re GRA? Are there voices over there - or have they come to MN?

Came across this yesterday but not checked it out properly yet:

www.reddit.com/r/GenderCritical/

I've never been on NM!

Might have a look.

Canadian website Feminist Current is openly GC. There are "debates" such as they are frequently in the comments and on their Twitter and facebook.

Quick search says not much.

feminist current is great

Come over to the GenderCritical reddit sub

r/gendercritical is pretty decent in terms of moderation, they don't tolerate any nonsense and there are no restrictions on phrasing - I've been lurking there for a while (and there are definitely cross-lurkers on here as they pick up on things we've found out and talked about, especially stickerwoman. Hi ). It's nice to see a more international perspective, and the peak trans threads are a thing of...well, horror, really. And there are sister groups for more in-depth discussions and groups such as desisisters. Make sure you get the right group, though, there's another sub with a similar name that really isn't what you're looking for. It is Reddit, though - take that caveat how you will.

You may find local groups on Facebook, there's one in my area (sorry, don't want to out myself beyond "north"!). Mayday4Women has a Facebook group also.

I believe Peach Yoghurt might be putting something together? Sure I've seen her mention it.

Yes that other subreddit is strangely named given that we're all cynical about gender as well as critical.

Urban75 is a leftish forum for everything under the sun; a bit blokey but good at joining dots on a whole range of political and social issues. The GRA has been raised several times but the threads rapidly disintegrate with the usual insults being flung at non-believers and lots of 'literal violence' claims. What is interesting / depressing is the extent to which a majority of straight men on the site seem to automatically support the MtF posters and ignore or undermine women. I gave up in the end.

Very telling too. They know they aren't women or they'd be as dismissive as they are of actual women.

However, I bet they wouldn't sleep with one of these "women".

Thanks all - will explore those suggestions - and be careful I get the right ones!

One reason I asked about NM is do you think they are deliberately keeping below the parapet and letting MN take the "flack"? I don't buy into the view that people on NM are not interested in this (I think the "huns" attitude by some MN posters (not here) can be a wee bit patronising).

I do wonder if there has been traffic to NM from those on MN who don't want to engage and NM are deliberately distancing themselves from the FWR boards.

Here's a link to a collection of reddit subs that cover women's issues, and will allow discussion of the GRA and similar topics

Is the Gender Critical Reddit "the other place" that various FWR posters decamped to a while back?

When I searched NM for "gra" and "trans" I only got one hit posted by a mod and no replies.

So not banned and not being talked about I think

NM have a habit of banning/deleting any posts that do not capitulate to TWAW if the subject is ever raised. It is not a feminist website.
