Just asking, would y'all be open to running another GC sub that isn't just for women only? As a guy I want to discuss all these issues too, but I feel like I'm intruding esp. after seeing comments on GC Reddit previously pretty much telling dudes to screw off from GC and find their own space.

Why don't you run it yourself? Why is it the job of GC women to run a sub for GC men?

Please don't put words into my mouth. I'm not saying that it's their job to do it for men or whatever you think I'm saying. Since the mods said they were looking to create sister subs, is it not reasonable to ask if they would consider making a general one for everybody. Evidently there's a lot of toxicity against men here, from the comments that I've already received from a simple question like mine.

We're struggling to rebuild a rare women-focused environment. Most of the women centered subreddits that don't welcome men were wiped out in the ban wave. GCG is STILL UP. Regardless of whether you said the words explicitly or not, I think it's valuable to consider why you would ask the women of GC to recreate GCG on this site. Being a male feminist ally means recognizing the burden of women's labor and working to share the load.
