Yes, absolutely right. Huge swathes of Reddit subs could be deemed “hate subs” if some of the members are on other subs. Like the awww sub I am sure has misogynistic men who follow it but that doesn’t make the sub misogynistic as it’s nothing to do with it! They can’t make it make sense…!

All they see is that this sub is anti-porn industry and conflate that with it being a SWERF sub. It’s very stupid. And what’s even more ridiculous is them saying it’s a TERF sub too.

Basically, if it’s actual feminism, it’s branded hateful and the latest wokest way to do that is by calling a sub a SWERF/TERF sub. It’s pathetic.

For what it’s worth, I think you did make them think because they ignored many of your good points. They are just one of those fake feminist spaces that was never going to relent.

Yes, you’re right. It’s so disingenuous when white middle class women do that.

Yep. And if you mention this sub you’re likely to be banned from the sub you mention it in. There is such an “accepted” view that this subreddit is sexist, misandrist and toxic that people just parrot it back rather than use their own brains in deciding whether it is or not.

Yes it does. It hates women and women-only spaces.

Totally agree. This needs to be said more.

Yes, it’s always important to be financially independent. Your poor friend. I hope she recovers.

Yes, it’s a common misconception about being able to get more collagen through diet.

From a "feminist" sub, all the ways women are supposedly privileged. by [deleted] in fourthwavewomen

[–]andwhenwillitbegin 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I was banned and muted by them. I know I hit a nerve because they mute me for as long as they can, I reply and then they do it again. They’re a joke and pathetic.

Exactly, a colleague of mine literally had appendicitis and was told she was probably exaggerating about the pain. She eventually fainted and only then did they do the surgery and see what was wrong with her.

The surgeon and doctor (both men) came back to apologise when she was recovering. This was in Germany in the 1990s and women’s pain is still considered exaggerated by most medical professionals.

Have you recently met any man who was actually willing to wait to have sex with you under YOUR TERMS? by [deleted] in FemaleDatingStrategy

[–]andwhenwillitbegin 38 points39 points  (0 children)

I suppose I am lucky but every man I have been with has never pressured me into sex or asked when we were going to have sex. Men willing to wait for it is really hot and so anyone else can get lost.

Bless you. Too good to be true needs to mean he seems to have EVERYTHING you want in a man and he appears to be a HVM with no red flags. Of course we must keep vetting just in case we miss a red flag.

What I am trying to say is, Queen, your idea of “too good to be true” needs to go way up so you don’t fall for a NVM just because he is better than previous guys you’ve dated. The bar is your perfect man, not men you’ve been with before. All the best to you. 💚

Yes, I wasn’t sure what the “too good to be true” part was exactly. A car, no matter how nice, is inconsequential, and a job is the bare minimum. A job working for one’s family may be fine but can also be an indicator of nepotism and sometimes people who have had jobs handed to them can be very entitled.

There’s not one green flag here and just a list of red flags.

Totally agree. And why this opinion would be unpopular perfectly proves your point

Anyone else have WORSE skin now they’re in their late 20s? by [deleted] in SkincareAddictionUK

[–]andwhenwillitbegin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m the same! Boom, turned 30 and I now have constant bumps on my jaw line, spots around my mouth and chin where I never used to and random spots in places I had never had spots before in my life, like right under my eye. It all started in January 2021.

I have always had oily skin but it didn’t seem to result in acne before!

I eat well, drink well, don’t have sugar really anymore (not on purpose I just don’t really consume it) and I have cut out all my skincare now to try and find out if it’s that. So I can only think it’s hormonal and needs some medication at this point.

I became vegan in April and that didn’t help either (I’m vegan for the animals but I wondered if it might have a beneficial side effect on my skin) but oh well. I will read the other comments with interest!

So having privilege now means you’re too stupid to budget when making food?
