Comment on Dude read the rules of woman only community and decided to post anyway

  I guess I was a little to aggressive in my original comment. I meant to explain why minority only groups get less flack than majority only groups, not to suggest that men only groups shouldn’t exist.

  Women only groups exist alongside the people who disapprove of them. I don’t see why men only groups can’t. As many have pointed out, however, men only groups DO exist. Someone linked to dull_mens_club as a Lemmy specific example, but more broadly, fraternities exist. Battered mens groups exist. I think some groups like nights of Columbus and the masons are or were men only. Men only schools and colleges exist, as do women only. Most veterans organizations are primarily men just by nature of who makes up the majority of most militaries.

    Copying my comment here for visibility too, that comm is not a men’s only comm, nor should it be treated as such.

    The official Dull Men’s Club website encourages women to participate as well, so I don’t think it should be considered as a men-only community:

    Though it started with men, women now belong too.
