For example workplace harrasment by women towards males like touching or groping being ignored because the victim is male but if it where to happen to a woman by a male the male would be fired

    Why is it okay for twoX to be devoted to women’s issues and actively discourage comparing them to men’s issues, but men can’t have an analogous space?

    Fwiw, if your twoX was different from previous similarly-named communities then I am sorry it closed.

      I think you misunderstood me. I do think men should have an analogous space. I support [email protected] 100%.

      If you didn’t misunderstand me, men don’t need a space specifically for comparing their issues negatively against women’s issues. That space is everywhere and anywhere, as evidenced by this discussion occurring in [email protected] and collecting overwhelmingly positive upvotes.

        Your comments here are an example of double standard.

        You are asking for men issues to stay in groups specific to that issue. Anyone who did the same for questions about women would be called a misogynist.

          Wow, you’re really reaching there. I’m asking you to stop blaming women for men’s problems. There’s a group of people who aren’t doing that, and if you don’t want to be called a misogynist, follow the example of that group.

            The incels are out in force.

            Ask them if they’re also supportive of White Pride and the KKK. Or if they’d endorse a “White Lives Matter” movement.

            • If they aren’t, then it reveals their cognitive dissonance.
            • If they are, then while they may be consistent, it also reveals they’re bigots and exposes the fallacious thinking.

            Maybe then the cognitive dissonance will be obvious.
