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.

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.

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.
