!feminism@lemmy.world is rather active and we can make it more so if you truly want to discuss these types of subjects with all genders. Maybe someone else has a better community suggestion.

None of the community members here told you those things or said you were mansplaining. Please do not paint us all with the same brush.

Please respect that women and femme and non-binary people want a space to discuss with each other in a safe and supportive community.

Please, I’m begging you, read the comment sections of several posts here. You’ll be able to see how polite and respectful we are to men who accidentally post. We don’t extend warm reminders to men who leave sexist or dismissive or otherwise rude comments.

I’d rather you look for yourself than make assumptions and comment based on those assumptions.

I mean, you are repeatedly breaking the rules. That is disrespectful. You could have sent me a DM instead of commenting further.

As you can see if you look around at the other comments, men who politely leave (or do not have a previous reputation of being jerks to us) are not shouted at but rather acknowledged as allies for respecting the rules.

At this point I’m not so sure you’re willing to change your mind about us. It would be best for you to go now.
