What is GC about, is it anti trans or something?

To be blunt, it’s mainly a lot of women that despise males. Even the ones that live as women. They also seem pretty butthurt that women got knocked off the their formerly high position in the identity based oppression olympics hierarchy.

Case in point: They want women only spaces, but would not extend the same courtesy to men.

I think a lot of GC women want men to have their own spaces.

It's a diverse community. I think what unifies us is that we think our female bodies matter and we are critical of gender ideology (but even the nature of that critique differs depending on who you are talking to).

I hope they do let men participate in the sub so you guys can learn more about the perspectives of women there.

I don't know why so many people have quite a difficult time wrapping their minds around the idea that your body matters.

I usually ask them this: do you think you would be the same person if you were taller/shorter, fatter/thinner, etc?

If something as basic as that can shape your reality to such degree, imagine being born as the opposite sex.
