I just did a search on Beehaw local for the keyword “China”.
Somehow I don’t see it being any more welcoming than any other site I’ve seen in the … well, Fediverse actually. The western left is not a whole lot better on that topic than the western right.
Tell me, how insecure are you that you COME HERE to tell us that we are somehow going out to scream at you?
You. Came. Here.
Not the other way around.
How shrivelled is your manhood that you can't stand being asked to not be here? What is behind your obvious misogyny? (What's that? You don't think you're misogynistic? Tell me how you'd respond, then, to someone going to a metal-oriented channel and saying that all metal sucks and that only losers and wasted goons listen to that shit: real people listen to waltzes.)
Now piss off, child. Adults are trying to continue with a conversation. The toddler table is over there.
"If you ask me one more time I will stab you with this knife."
You’re clothing says “NOT INTERESTED GO AWAY” and you’re literally verbalising it. As always this isn’t a misunderstanding, it’s harassment and it’s wrong.
There's a certain breed of male (I won't say "man" because they're not: they're boys at best) that sees a woman sending signals they're not interested and take it as a challenge. Wearing loose-fitting, frumpy clothing? Let's see what she's got under that! Tell them you're queer. That's because she's not been with the right man yet! (Note: they think they're the ones who can "cure" lesbian or asexual or whatnot people. Because they're so special. 🙄) Tell them you'll stab them in both eyes with a pair of crescent-bladed knives if they don't back right the fuck down? I'm going to complain to the manager!
Can't win for losing. The only thing they sometimes respect is "my boyfriend wouldn't approve". Because now you're another man's "property" and "property" rights are paramount. (Except for a small batch of them for whom even this doesn't back them off.)
There's a reason why there's always a knife or two on my person.
Gay dude here, as usual I feel hostility when I see these threads but I’ll reply anyway.
Let me translate this from Male Privilege to English:
"I'm a guy and even though I know this is against the channel rules, I won't let mere WOMEN tell ME what to do."
Go away child.
I have a technical question: is it not possible to set up a community that is "member-only posting" in Lemmy? (Genuine question, I have no idea. I don't run an instance or a community.)
Let me guess. You identify as an attack helicopter.
🙄
you are walking up to every man around and screaming in their face that they aren’t welcome.
Men (presuming, I'm guessing, you, despite knowing the rules, because rules aren't for men...) have to come to this group to be told to piss off. (And the mods are super nice about telling men to piss off. There's a reason why they're mods and I'm not!)
For you to call that "walking up to every man around and screaming in their face" is so fucking ridiculous that I can't even begin to imagine the kind of entitled, toddler-like mindset required to express this without laughing.
I tutor a girl who was collecting a huge number of acceptance letters, having basically her choice of American university to attend. She was ecstatic about this.
Now she's not going to the USA. I've directed her to Canada or Australia as options.
I have no idea what those moon units mean, but the comparison to a chihuhua I get. So I might be bigger than you. 😄 (160cm, 55kg.) But I get the whole demeanour thing. That's what Dad tried to instill into me (with shaky initial results but I'm much better at that iron stare now).
I get that the aro/ace thing likely disorients you more. I just wanted you to be aware it isn't just you. Almost ALL women find being hit on while trying to do their job disruptive, creepy, and really irritating. You're not alone and you've got people who can at the very least empathize. And there's not much you can do unfortunately without risking losing your job. You have to say "no" firmly. Draw the line. Make sure you call out any line crossing. And if they don't get the message, pull out your 鸳鸯钺¹. That usually gets their attention (and you'll be able to leave your job almost immediately! 😉).
¹ These things.
I mentioned this in past messages that got deleted (not by the mods here).
But basically this is what women's groups in uni were like for me when they tried inviting "allies" from among male students. These well-intentioned (I have to stress this, they were not being jerks deliberately!) men would come to meetings and by the end it was only the men talking.
It's just in the nature.
This is why we went back to "women-only" groups with occasional "open house"-style gatherings which were just social events.
