This community is first and foremost a feminist community for men and masc people, but it is also a place to talk about men’s issues with a particular focus on intersectionality.
Rules
Everybody is welcome, but this is primarily a space for men and masc people
Non-masculine perspectives are incredibly important in making sure that the lived experiences of others are present in discussions on masculinity, but please remember that this is a space to discuss issues pertaining to men and masc individuals. Be kind, open-minded, and take care that you aren't talking over men expressing their own lived experiences.
Be productive
Be proactive in forming a productive discussion. Constructive criticism of our community is fine, but if you mainly criticize feminism or other people's efforts to solve gender issues, your post/comment will be removed.
Keep the following guidelines in mind when posting:
- Build upon the OP
- Discuss concepts rather than semantics
- No low effort comments
- No personal attacks
Assume good faith
Do not call other submitters' personal experiences into question.
No bigotry
Slurs, hate speech, and negative stereotyping towards marginalized groups will not be tolerated.
No brigading
Do not participate if you have been linked to this discussion from elsewhere. Similarly, links to elsewhere on the threadiverse must promote constructive discussion of men’s issues.

I am not familiar with where Israel stands on gender issues. Could you speak a little bit more on that matter?
I'm being a bad mod for going on a tangent here but looking at your post history why do you end literally every sentence with an ellipses? Is this a non-native English speaker thing?
What is an ellipses ?
If You mean the triple dot... It's just as a pause... Maybe about the same as punctuation/dot/period... Idk... Makes it easier to express myself I suppose..
Some ppl think 🤔 it's sarcasm ... But it's not how I use it; or what I use it for...
I guess this is my writing/ typing style... Maybe 😏🤔 a bad habbit I formed talking over social media over all these years... IDK TBH
Definitely a bad habit. Just use a period and your writing will instantly appear more credible.
I'll give a try, TY.
I was talking about their treatment of Palestinians...
Well that does not build on the content of the OP and is therefore in violation of Rule 4.
There is a place for discussion on Israel/Palestine and the masculine forces at work there in this community but it is not this thread.
