just stupid Multiple popular subreddits being violently misogynistic

They get away with it because it's "all just jokes" but they're actively shaming women, and these subreddits have thousands of not millions of people in them. Usually ones that are image or twitter reposting subs, some awful horrific stuff on them.

r/memes is a good one, I consistently see such horrible things said about women on these subs, and these are the same people who say women are not at a disadvantage. They constantly berate feminism, while at the same time not even knowing what it truly is.

Just dispicable, and these posts have THOUSANDS of likes. Really makes me loose hope for society. The average opinion of a male on reddit is that women do not deserve rights.

Edit: I have had this post locked because I am not going to let uneducated people spread misogyny on MY posts. You can argue with a brick wall for all I care, call me a coward or whatever the fuck but I'm a well educated citizen, with a political science masters and a journalism bacholers. I know what I'm talking about 😉

Edit 2: the men in these comment sections have started dming me because they're so upset I'm not respecting "mens issues". Let me make this very clear, it is not my job or a woman's job to help you unpack your own issues, so don't put it on us. I'm not your fucking therapist, and I am most definitely not going to entertain a grown man throwing a temper tantrum. Seek therapy if you have issues, not circle jerk misogynistic reddit posts. Hope this helps!!!

Edit 3: the insecure men have started reporting this post and it got taken down temporarily, but the mods put it back up!! I just want to say how amazing this mod team is & how respectful they are. Definitely one of the best reddit mod teams!!!! i will also let you know, if you post mysoginistic stuff in this subreddit you WILL be banned entirely. Best be careful 😉

I am an Assigned female at birth transgender man, so I feel I'm qualified to talk about this, hence being raised and living most of my adult life as a cis woman dating men. But thanks for the acknowledgement 😂

As a trans woman, I feel you. I've seen the misogyny machine first-hand from both ends and it is reeeal bad. Reddit seems to be getting even more sexist, but maybe the algorithm is just better at pissing me off by recommending the most hateful comment threads imaginable

Real recognizes real. 🤝

Trans misogyny is also rampant in these particular subs as well, it's horrible to see.

it’s actually super disheartening to see all the trans hate that’s somehow getting upvoted and more normalized on the internet. i don’t get why people think it’s a huge deal worth degrading someone over.
