Comment on Why are male social workers so different?

  Most of the female-centric Lemmy communities are now abandoned. I’m sure the hostility did not help that. Don’t blame them. I’d never suggest Lemmy as a space for women.

    Damn, that's fucking awful. What female-centric communities existed? I know what ones my wife follows on Reddit but not their analogues here

        "Scaring the hoes" is a catch all term for when the things men enjoy in private or with other men create environments that are inhospitable to women.

        I've always heard it in a comedic context, said with nearly the same tone as when Eustace berates Courage the Cowardly Dog.

      TwoXChromosome is also dead. Witchy-type instances are abandoned, too. It’s so sad, because I’ve had the most lively and supportive conversations in those places.

      There is a grave problem with the Lemmy ecosystem system if women do not feel safe / comfortable using it.
