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.

This strongly reminds me of the Rimworld community.

Like, Rimworld ALLOWS you to do slavery, organ harvesting, cannibalism, and all sorts of wild shit within its systems, and the young-male fans of the game talk that up a lot.

...but the reality is that most people set up a nice little farm and spend most of their time making art and decorating their base and playing matchmaker.

Until one of your favourites get offed by a random raid, then you ~~enslave, harvest and cannibalise~~ bring justice to those responsible.

If you don’t simultaneously play both ways, you’re missing out on the full Rimworld experience.

There's so much pressure to be a certain way to fulfill society's expectations of masculinity.

It's okay to redecorate the bathroom. Just be yourself and do what feels right. Stop trying to impress everybody. As Ken would say 'I'm Kenough'.

Nobody tell this guy about the porn mods?

From the article:

At GDC last week, I also spoke to Humble about sex mods (he's for them)
