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.

This podcast is a group of young black men talking about men's mental health.

If you're not into black culture and stuff or find it uninteresting than this may not be for you. I think it's great and I think anyone can take something from this. They're all being open and talking about feelings and the male loneliness epidemic.

I'm extroverted AF and post-COVID I'm stuck at home a lot. Most of my friends don't go out and I live a bit in the burbs. I don't like drinking and driving and public transport isn't great. I prefer not to spend $100 to get a cab home.

One old friend called me out of blue and we hung out a few times before he gave me a sob story about his finances and I "lent" him $10K which I'm sure I'm never getting back.

I still make an effort to see people but I'm kinda tired. My hands hurt now because I'm on the computer all day for work and afterwards too. I miss doing things outside of work and winter in Ontario doesn't help right now.
