Redditors vs Predditors, by former Reddit mod @womenopausal. We complained to the Reddit Admins, but they never did anything helpful. In fact, they ignored r/GenderCritical almost entirely - right up to the point when they banned us without warning or justification.

I wouldn't refer to the GC crowd as sexual degenerates by any stretch. They criticize gender roles (in the name), and are staunch protectors of biological sex for a number of reasons. My understanding is that it's imperative to allow children to grow into adulthood unmarred by predatory caregivers and the medical community that would attempt to convince the child that they're trans, to allow boys to have the same emotional processes as girls (to cry or be emotional without being seen as "weak or feminine", allow women and girls to be tomboys or "butch" without being convinced that they're actually men, to keep men's crimes as men's crimes in documentation (instead of it being recorded under female crime statistics and fucking up/skewing numbers heavily), etc. and so on. There are some very well spoken men and women in the GC communities here on Saidit. Sexual degenerates though? From what I've seen they're generally anti-porn, and many that I've interacted with would even be seen as more prudish by other feminists. There are a lot of lesbians, but I don't really consider lesbianism degenerate, especially compared to other sexual orientations (even straight folks honestly. Sometimes heterosexuals are just.. gross and hypersexual-- think coomerism).

Agreed that just being hetrosexual is no guarantee of meeting minimum standards.

A horrific example near the bottom of this rabbithole. (Eesh, only took a few clicks to get there)

Sexual degenerates though?

Strictly speaking, yes, although being well-spoken is a plus that promotes some level of toleration. It does need to be remembered that ideals are not necessarily achievable in reality.

Gender criticism is an extension of feminist literary criticism, focusing not just on women but on the construction of gender and sexuality, especially LGBTQ ...

Whether or not these are actual enemies of our species is a question I'll leave for a later time and/or others. But it's this kind of thing that causes me some affinity for the theory that humanity needs reducing back to 500 million. It's the question of which 500 million that causes so much disagreement.

Thanks, I do appreciate your thoughts and opinions on the state of the world, even if I might seem like a bit of a contrarian. :)

But women don't really want that. I think it's a biological survival instinct. It makes sense anyways, to have one gender try and keep their shit together. My wife one time burst into tears because she missed her exit. And that's not like her at all, but hormones make women emotional sometimes. Just like male hormones make us violent sometimes. Still, you get a lot more shit done in a violent rage than crying about it. 20 cents an hour more 😂
