For those out of the loop, WomensStuff has a women-only rule, where men are respectfully asked to not reply to posts.

    More power to you and all, but this sounds like getting mad at the radio DJ. Not everything has to be two-way communication, sometimes it’s fun to watch others’ interactions.

      I find it interesting that their objections are about the evidence used for bans, rather than claiming they were banned in error.

      It’s certainly not how I would respond if I were falsely accused of bring a man.

        I wasn’t saying they are wrong, just that the community is getting exactly what it wants. Less contribution and visibility on an already small platform.

        I commented on a post about putting lotion in a zip bag, and my comment was about putting mayo in a squeeze bottle. Not exactly gendered discourse.

        Kind of like a community that only accepts input from say, black people. A question about favorite pizzas being thrown out because my username doesn’t confirm I’m black, it’s just a little weird.

          I would imagine they had more to go on than just the username. Its a small community, whenever someone joins for the first time the mods check their post history. I imagine they found something.

          It is what the community wants. Its a comfy little space for girls to talk about girl stuff! The mods do an effective job maintaining that atmosphere.

      yeah but they picked the shitty radio edit and didn’t even wait to the end to start announcing the next song, they stink!
