I'll agree the makeup forums were mischaracterized, and that was not intentional. I do not however apologize for 'body shaming' AGPs loudly larping as women. I'm also going to point out the hypocrisy: this exact sub is none of those things listed, yet has historically been effectively off limits to men. Ovarit is even more off limits. Tightly censored and policed. Why? We all know why.

I am all for all-female or female-only forums to discuss feminism, women's rights, women's heath, biology, issues etc.

My issue is with the idea that you seem to be promoting which says makeup forums are and should be female (only) spaces. Coz being interested in makeup is supposedly a female thing. Which presumably you think all female people share.

This is regressive sexist BS.

BTW, I don't believe this forum/sub is off-limits to men. I've benefitted from the input of several men who've posted here, and have had many interesting and thought-provoking exchanges with them too.
