I agree. We need to get active and start calling companies out who support reddit and ask questions like this. Companies won't want this type of publicity, so it might be a quick way to either preassure reddit to remove these types of subs or make reddit lose money through advertisers pulling their money out of them.

I think another thing that we women need to do is shop elsewhere if companies don't support women. We are half the population, nothing would change things quicker if we changed our shopping habits, it would send a clear message to companies.

And women are responsible for the majority of purchases as they often control household budgets, etc. So we can absolutely have a big impact. All these companies care about the bottomline. It's why they kowtow to the woke crowd. Well, two can play at that game, I say!

Exactly. We have more power than the woke crowd because of that. At the end of the day, companies care about money the most, so we have a lot of power in changing their behaviour through our shopping habits.

None of pointing that out to the companies erasing women swayed them to knock it off and stop pissing off their customers. Definitely boycott them, but they've already said they would rather go out of business than listen to Mumsnet.

This is so true. I feel like we forget sometimes that we actually outnumber men by about a % in the US at least, our voices may not be heard but our dollars flowing elsewhere sure will.
