Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions

1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

I think it's nigh impossible to come up with strict rules about these things.
I also think it's fine that women have spaces that are just for them.
Interesting? Why? So it becomes an echo chamber? Why not make the group private in that case? How about fake women profiles by men?
Why do you feel that you have the automatic right to insert yourself into a conversation that your opinion isn't wanted in? There's no issue with the way they're presenting or moderating their community; they make the rules plain on the sidebar.
Again, why do you assume this is an issue? Most men can simply respect that women would like to have a conversation with other women. Why are you not able to just accept this?
Your opinion isn't wanted.
Tough titties, kid.
ok buddy 👍
Not only that, but literally directly asked them why immediately beforehand. This is a master class in missing the point.
I’m an afab something for whom these communities always felt a little iffy (they’re very welcome and it’s lovely to not have to hedge what you say as much, but I always felt they were somewhat unfair), but this comments section has helped me understand why it’s unproblematic to have them.
