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 article poses a Yes or No question in its headline, then takes 1500 words to answer it with "Maybe, sort of by some metrics, but not in any way that matters. I don't know only time will tell."
It includes Millennials in its statistics about Gen Z by referencing "under 30's" (the youngest Millennials are currently 28) and includes a comparison of Gen Z to both "middle aged" people and Millennials, which overlap, the oldest Millennials are 43. So it's comparing young millennials to middling millennials and saying they're actually more like old millennials.
I wish I hadn't read it. My bad though, I should have known. Articles that generalize people into categories as broad as generations are always poorly written.
