Reddit's two x chromosomes forum

[Collidascope]

It's Women's History Month, and the front page is a treat.

No, not reminiscent of colonisation at all. No, sir.

TBF, I'm not sure it's ever been a sub exclusively for females. I do know men are allowed to post there though.

Interesting though!

Yes, interestingly only 'TERFs' are banned.

I never understood it. The name is literally the definition of a biological female. There is so much cognitive dissonance it does my head in.

Nah.

Not digging deeper. Not looking at their shitty talkboard.

Will give the saddo blokey chops forum a right swerve.

How very odd. 2 X chromosomes?

That's extraordinary!

There's a post somewhere there where a TW says they feel uncomfortable with all the transition pics due to title I think, and it's a bit of a pile on, "gives the tfs ammunition to show TW invade spaces".

Then someone else says "no, it's for all women."
Someone says "yeah weird cos title".
"Hasn't aged well."
"Has to be inclusive"

Women are the only group who aren't allowed to be exclusive afaik. Weird.

That's just a Reddit for TW as far as I can tell.

But men don’t seem to impressed...?

Men are allowed to discuss things I see.

And trans women...

It seems to be really invalidating for trans women

If you've got a reddit account, I think some of them would like that glinner article about exactly who mods what reddit, ft an ex-Green Party politician.

Good Lord. Just had a nosey poke around via the links provided.

Why can't they just name it Genderwang and have done with it?

So, despite having 99.9% of Reddit, men still want the teeny areas women try to carve out. And we are meant to believe that we aren't being used as validation tools?!

Is this the outcome of A Challenor's involvement with Reddit?

Arent the Challenor cohort bigwig reddit mods?

I got banned from there the other day, forgot i wasn't on Mumsnet anymore and was too honest to be acceptable. Got quite a few upvotes though!
Not a good place to hang out if you are worried about your blood pressure!

There's a curious "what is gender oppression" on r/sociology at the moment.
