For real, tho There really aren't any actual female only subs left on Reddit, literally everything is colonized or got shut down by troons.

Many Female only communities moved to private Discord servers or came back to Tumblr, or joined Ovarit.

/r/fourthwavewomen, but I get a feeling they're gonna get raided by the AHS CP-spamming hivemind really soon.

I think the entire premise of trying to cultivate female only spaces on the internet is a flawed one anyway. Like it's all gonna be on the honor system essentially.

Like I can just make a reddit account, say I'm a woman, and gain access to any "female only" space in like three seconds. Which I might be interested in doing if there's crazy bullshit being discussed and they try to block people from reading it.

Basically going to be impossible to do online. Like I guess you can just ban the comments you think are from men but how can you tell those comments are not from women? It's always going to devolve into banning wrong think anyway.

See. Super easy. You can tell I'm actually a woman now. Look! Emojis. ♀️ 👠 😊

Lol

No, it's not that easy, I'm afraid. Some private female communities require zoom or phone call with the moderators and admin to prove with your voice and appearance that you are actually biolo woman or girl.

Yeah that's better but it comes at the cost of anonymity. And it isn't really foolproof either. Will weed out the low effort people though, which probably is the type you'd want to weed out for the most part.

I mean I guess if I wanted to get access into one of those spaces I'd just ask a girl to join and send me the juicy gossip. Be easier than faking the zoom call.

Yes, I'm aware is rather impossible but female communities must try somehow anyway, for their own safety. There is lots of reasons the female only spaces are absolutely neccessary and male users must be not allowed in.

You can make the female only spaces but you can't have them be online and anonymous. They can't really be online anyway even if they aren't anonymous since people can just easily pretend to be women to get in unless you've got literally no privacy for the users.

The issue I think you'll have here is knowing it's impossible but trying anyway. It's stupid. Waste of effort to no benefit. You can say women only all you want but there's no way to actually enforce that on the internet. My question is why bother with online female only spaces? Just make them irl where it's possible.

That's doesn't matter. Women will keep trying, even if it's not 100% possible, it's still worth it. At least it's possible to keep out the most obnoxious and annoying male assholes.

While generally doing their absolute best to shut down/gain access any male only space...Which is why I am generally cold to any bitchfits about this.

Apart from changing rooms.

You know what? Fuck em...chicks have been demanding access to guys spaces for fucking years and in some instances have campaigned to stop guys spacers from starting up...So cry me a fucking river, build me a bridge and get the fuck over it.

you cannot, in fact, gain easy access to ovarit. The women keep their gates, there, and are not exceedingly tolerant of scrotes.
