Men's Liberation
This community is first and foremost a feminist community for men and masc people, but it is also a place to talk about men’s issues with a particular focus on intersectionality.
Rules
Everybody is welcome, but this is primarily a space for men and masc people
Non-masculine perspectives are incredibly important in making sure that the lived experiences of others are present in discussions on masculinity, but please remember that this is a space to discuss issues pertaining to men and masc individuals. Be kind, open-minded, and take care that you aren't talking over men expressing their own lived experiences.
Be productive
Be proactive in forming a productive discussion. Constructive criticism of our community is fine, but if you mainly criticize feminism or other people's efforts to solve gender issues, your post/comment will be removed.
Keep the following guidelines in mind when posting:
- Build upon the OP
- Discuss concepts rather than semantics
- No low effort comments
- No personal attacks
Assume good faith
Do not call other submitters' personal experiences into question.
No bigotry
Slurs, hate speech, and negative stereotyping towards marginalized groups will not be tolerated.
No brigading
Do not participate if you have been linked to this discussion from elsewhere. Similarly, links to elsewhere on the threadiverse must promote constructive discussion of men’s issues.

Then you don't know what capitalism is.
Or perhaps I just think differently than you.
Let me try this again in light of trying to meet you where you are at instead of just saying "wrong" and moving on.
What do you think the article meant by its title? What do you think it ment by "capitalism" so we can be on the same page.
Am I needed in this discussion? I thought that you can read my mind when you're so confidently educating me about my own views.
Or just try not to be on the same page at all. Also okay.
There's no easy way to tell someone on the Internet that they are wrong without sounding patronizing. All I can say is that I genuinely want to try and explain something to you that you clearly do not understand. I would like you to understand. I would like for us to be able to talk about this topic. I mean this with love and sincerity. That's the best I can do.
