This is much more informative and helpful than some of the responses I get from the gendercritical audience, and helps me with the discussions, because so much of this is a new language for me and others.

Yes, because Reddit's most active members appear to be in the 13-16 age group (even /u/magnora7 has mentioned this, as we've seen it remain somewhat at this level for over 10 - 12 years), it must be a prime location for sexual predators. That said, I've not seen predatory behaviour, though in the past two days I've begun to see this with a number of the links in the discussions. I think there was underage porn on the site years ago, as I remember a note to mods that the underage porn subs were banned (I remember wondering how much of the dark web Reddit reposts).

I'll soon read posts at https://www.reddit.com/r/AgainstHateSubreddits

There is a lot of predatory behaviour and a lot of grooming if you know where to look.

in r/asktransgender pretty much every time a teenager asks "am i trans?" the responses will most of them be yes https://www.reddit.com/r/asktransgender/comments/mc3grl/i_think_i_might_be_mtf_trans/

r/egg_irl is about memes about eggs. Egg is a term that gender people use for when someone does not know they are trans yet. You see a lot of comments aswel around the internet when someone looks somewhat androgynous that they will tell this person they are definitely trans or an egg even if the person sais they are not. https://www.reddit.com/r/egg_irl/

In subs for transpeople you will often see they massively are downplaying the medication and surgeries and often they share tips on what to say to doctors to get you hormones quickly. They are grooming eachother into transitioning its quite frightening https://old.reddit.com/r/traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns/comments/mbvgc4/angry_himbo_noises/gs13v9h/

A lot of detransitioners have mentioned how older TIM's would contact them and groom them on subs like that and try to abuse them for sexual gratification.

If you like documentaries there is one called terf wars which might help you with the gender critical views and issues. it's an hour and a half but its actually quite good in explaining a lot of stuff https://youtu.be/tzId7X9NtR0

Very interesting. Seems Reddit will have to ban - if they want to be consistent - some of the platforms for these predatory and grooming discussions, or find themselves on the wrong side of an angry parent lawsuit. The +18 requirement at Reddit - if it could apply for some of these subs - would also be impossible to enforce. And anyone getting the facts about the hormone treatments and surgeries from a person who went through it should know that it's quite painful and harmful. I'll have a closer look at this soon, and indeed the rest of that video. By the way - I think the only +18 sub at Saidit that's in s/all is s/Tits, which I highly recommend (to all genders?).

I'm disappointed there weren't more feathered birds. I'm not that much into the other tits but thanks for the suggestion lol

Thank you! I was told by a mod there was a bird problem in the sub. Well, there it is, we need more birds, /u/AmericanMuskrat !. On it...
