men-only spaces get called toxic; men in mixed spaces get called threatening; men alone get called pathetic or scary. what do you want from men? My vote is for isolation.

if you’re not threatening, then you won’t be called threatening in a shared space. we just want men to be normal people, that is not too much to ask. we don’t need social isolation, that only makes things worse. you seem to have some concerningly out of touch views

isolation / separation of genders is not a realistic way to reducing harm. humans react to total isolation similarly as they do to physical pain. it is extremely psychologically unhealthy. society is healthier with men and women together, i don’t think you really understand what you’re talking about at all, and im really confused as to why you have such a strange extreme view on this.

I have media literacy. the point is that the survey was done for a reason. And the results are alarming.. It’s also not the only thing I’ve heard about women not wanting to be in community with men. It’s not an unheard of complaint.

Anonymous replying to -> OP 17h

just because it’s not an unheard of complaint doesn’t mean the realistic solution is to separate genders entirely. do you not see how entirely unrealistic that is? a better solution would be finding a better way for men and women to co exist. when men are separated from women their views often become worse.

The position that women should care about men in the quest to dismantle the patriarchy is very well contested, and very likely that many people will not change their minds about their contesting of that position. If that’s the case, then there is no end goal that will satisfy everybody except for isolation.
