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

    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.
