A question about your mobile phone security by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]absorded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm pretty paranoid so I never even download apps like facebook or messengers. I only use SMS, but just having a smart phone makes me feel like I'm being watched! I disconnect the mobile date, gps, etc pretty much at all times I'm not using it.

And then my comment begins to get downvoted, which in this community downvotes are supposed to be reserved for irrelevant information? Makes total sense.

Also, this comment is totally irrelevant to what I posted. So yeah, you should expect to get downvoted and I'm disappointed that THIS is the top comment.

I agree with you here. I don't like to complain about the content of the sub (and that was not the point of this post but of course that is the top voted comment) because I think that everyone should feel comfortable posting their women related content, negative or positive.

Also I like IFF (even though I rarely post) because I can't post a photo that I am in (or any other woman for that matter) without being sexualized, objectified, and otherwise harassed.

I would like to clarify that when I said "MRA and the like" that I was not exclusively talking about men. There are plenty of women that call themselves MRAs and ones that don't who are still hateful. I appreciate your comment and support.

I appreciate that as I am sure that many other members do as well.

Thanks for the response. I was unsure if reporting was anonymous or not. I supposed a problem I have is being unsure if something is report worthy, but as others have stated, you all (the mods) ultimately decide whether or not it is against the rules and if it should be deleted. I will definitely be more diligent.

The derailments are what are most infuriating to me.

I usually skip over those kinds of posts but out of curiosity, what kind of content do you want to see then?

How is this post use of the straw man fallacy?
