TIL The US government runs an official dad joke database
(fatherhood.gov)
*dadabase
I’m proud that my tax dollars fund this, seriously. Frankly it probably costs very little. Someone probably has to read and approve the submissions.
How else would I know where a fancy cat goes to the bathroom?

It feels like a gov-website feature you’d find in a country full of wise, unafraid, healthy, and peace-loving grownups. I’m a fan, too.
We should feel duty bound to copy those jokes into this thread as backup:
Did you hear the one about the Ballerina Debate Team?
They always stay on point.

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.
