Definitely would start some shit if we started using that outside of this community.

I'm not encouraging anyone to do so, but it would be worthy of some popcorn.

I'm doing this to the next man I speak to who doesn't fuck up, even if I have to be weird to a waiter.

Say it real saccharine sweet, too. “Oh why THANK YOU for being SO kind, y’know not all men are like this!”

cecinestpasunecommunication@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 7 pts · 61d (1 reply)

Its can't get away with sweet. Not my vibe. I'm gonnasay it instead of thank you. Like 'wow this was really great service, not all men.' Or like 'and an order of baklava. Not all men.'

I don't get enough DMs anyway.

velma@sh.itjust.works · 8 pts · 62d (32 replies)

Oh they slide into your DMs on a regular basis, too? Hahaha it's so predictable

Wren@lemmy.today · 10 pts · 62d (31 replies)

Not toooo regular, but it happens.

velma@sh.itjust.works · 10 pts · 62d (30 replies)

I get scolded a lot for being too outspoken. Apparently I’m holding women back lol

Anyway, it can be fun to see the tantrums in my DMs so oh well.

hildegarde@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 10 pts · 62d

Saaame I feel left out.

I'm more amused about it than anything. I will fully admit I used Reddit and similar sites for conversing and such before and my comments on Lemmy are very similar. But the amount of screeching manosphere types are SO LOUD on Lemmy! It's astonishing the kinds of things people say to me here.

I call out bullshit when I see it, but I'm rather kind and positive in general. So when I've got a message telling me that my attitude is why women should be subjugated or raped, I feel a little pride in upsetting a truly horrible person just by being myself.

cecinestpasunecommunication@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 5 pts · 61d

No, but it could be server choice.

ZDL@lazysoci.al · 5 pts · 61d

Not really. I was joking about being jealous. 😉

Beth@piefed.social · 5 pts · 61d

Nah I’m also fine without.

Have you expressed that you are of the female persuasion? They need to know you are before they feel the need to correct you. Otherwise youre just a guy to them and will be ignored beyond a stupid comment.

Not all men but most men, and I say this as a NB AMAB.

velma@sh.itjust.works · 6 pts · 61d (3 replies)

That's the real clincher there. When someone even sees my clearly female name, I get mass downvotes on all my comments and posts.

LadyButterfly@reddthat.com · 3 pts · 61d

Yep! I've noticed women are more likely to get that. It's really obvious. I've had incels follow me round lemmy making passive aggressive remarks... I honestly feel sorry for them, all that hate and anger can't feel good for them. But they don't do the work on themselves that they need to do, so they're trapped with that anger eating them alive.

HertzDentalBar@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 3 pts · 61d

Why are men 😔 I wish I could just bitchslap the toxic masculinity outta these fucks

velma@sh.itjust.works · 5 pts · 62d

Someone linked the book "Feminist Killjoy" in this comm recently. I highly recommend ;)

LadyButterfly@reddthat.com · 8 pts · 61d (3 replies)

Not too boast but I regularly get called things like a "well known misandrist". I genuinely don't think they understand how proud I feel when incels call me that.

velma@sh.itjust.works · 5 pts · 61d (2 replies)

Damn, that label kinda goes hard. You should be proud hahaha

That’s the sweetest! I hope you share a pic here when it happens

Domi@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 1 pts · 58d

It's damaging your cause (says man who hates you and your cause)

Taleya@aussie.zone · 11 pts · 61d

Also fun ti respond to "men don't like it when -"

ChicoSuave@lemmy.world · 10 pts · 62d

Actually, yeah.
