Unironically I have found it's much easier to connect with people since I started to transition, both platonically and sexually. I haven't even changed all that much yet from my perspective, but being more myself than ever has helped me connect in ways that would have been impossible when I was doing my best impression of a cishet man.
I mean, I am already encouraging sepperation and such. I just think this is perfect, Lesbian women and Gay men who distrust and loathe each other = less humans = 90% of our issues fixed.
EDIT: Did I say plan? I just found myself agreeing with femcels one day.
I think it’s sarcastic, like pointing out that it’s not actually caused by women but rather the ever increasing atomization of society to extract profit and the garbage stream of content men are exposed to online that radicalizes them against authentic human connection for fear of being “unmasculine.”
Sorry to miscommunicate - I did mean that the male loneliness epidemic is very much real. It’s just not caused by women. Although Andrew Tate types like to blame women, because it discourages men from interacting with women.
It’s primarily a shitpost community, so I wouldn’t take anything here as meant genuinely. Lemmy isn’t really like that the way other online spaces tend to be.
Femcelmemes is a vibe, not a cut-and-dry identity. Mostly a sapphic, self-deprecating vibe and nobody is really excluded.
If you don't mind my (male) perspective, I chuckled at this with the same brain that chuckles at dark humour and sarcastic self-deprecation...
My interpretation was that it's poking fun at correlation by implying causation, rather than celebrating causation (much like the other commenter said)
This was posted by one of the three frequent posters on here. So you'll be missing a solid chunk of the stuff posted here. Just saying, you'll probably be missing a lot of stuff you enjoy.
Even if OP doesn’t know it, it’s the truth and shouldn’t have offended people for being the truth.
One should only be offended by this if one holds the belief that women are directly causing men to be lonely. And that’s an entire can of worms to open there.
When I first moved to my current house, my wife and kid stayed at our old home to pack stuff up for the move. (I was recently injured and so not much help with physical stuff.) Most days, the first and last time I spoke out loud were the two sentences I said in my daily morning meetings.
I had also developed a bad cold or flu or similar in the timeframe. When I attended those meetings (online) I wasn't always sure anything would come out when I opened my mouth. Sometimes I said random things beforehand to make sure my voice was going to work.
edit: I think this story is relevant, but I am a cis man. I truly apologize if this was not an appropriate place to tell my tale.

With only one hand?!? That many guys usually takes two. Bravo.

They didn't say anything about what their feet were doing...

I think I'm more impressed if someone can jack a guy off with one foot than doing two per hand

If you're experiencing the male loneliness epidemic, simply become a girl! Can't be a lonely guy if you're a girl!

The real solution to the male loneliness epidemic is gay sex

We do love a bit of Yaoi ://3 -Sam/Gem

on a related note, yuri is a good way for women to avoid all the misogynistic men

True, but we love our non-binary partner :3

Ironically burned by men myself, as a man.

Hi, cis man here, did you know that asking a guy out was just as hard as asking q girl ? I know that because I'm still alone đź‘Ś

the cure for male loneliness
TotallynotJessica@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 23 pts · 128d
Upgrade from male loneliness to female loneliness
Berengaria_of_Navarre@lemmy.world · 11 pts · 128d
Like male loneliness, but with a lovely pair of tits.
JennyLaFae@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 12 pts · 128d
I just want to live my life, not interact with men at all, and have a small pack of puppygirls.

Best behaved, no bratty puppies in my polycule

Shame, brats are fun.

All the more for the rest of us ;)

Indeed, they are so fun to play with. ;)
captainlezbian@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 128d
They aren't for everyone. My domme likes obedience, which is fortunate for me
oftheair@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 1 pts · 128d
That is fair. However, we like making them obedient as well. ;)

The male loneliness epidemic isn’t caused by women.
That’s the point of the meme.
