Also the sexist shit on the fediverse is NOT uniformly called out, not in the slightest.

You’re taking OP at face value that the community is misandrist. I’m telling you it’s not.

Wouldn’t want to believe someone who actually belongs to that community though /s

The places that I follow do mostly called it out, your experience may differ, and I hope it improves further.

I can't judge about the community since I do not participate, and I am also not taking OPs claims at face value, I never said that.

Example: This post calls out for sexism, I think this is not ok, in both directions.

I am not claiming that there is a problem with the community, I am saying it is a problem when sexism is not called out.

Your image didn’t load correctly, so I can’t comment on it.

I’m not going to debate whether individuals have said sexist things or not. What I’m stating is that OP has lied and misrepresented what womensstuff is actually about and I’m not going to entertain conversations based on those lies.
