Thank god she clarified that.

it's amazing that they are recognizing the same common complaints that men have with women in general: hyper sensitivity, the need for ridiculous political correctness and emotional coddling, the focus on victimhood, the disdain for personal accountability and action in favor of wallowing in victimhood (and worse, that calling for personal accountability is the same as victim blaming), seeing every personal preference or opinion as a personal attack or judgement, etc. when trivial feelings are more important than rational, productive discourse, a stagnant circlejerk always arises. hence, the stagnation and inanity of most female-oriented subs. i really used to like twox back in the early days before it was taken over by victim-identity feminists.

Those were honest and introspective comments. Their answers are the female equivalent of many reasons why I cut back on my men's issues time and upped my personal improvement time. Constantly hearing about all the fucked up shit people do to each other is depressing, especially when you can't personally relate to the abuse they have suffered.

It's undoubtedly worse for women since they are forced to discuss everything inside a hamster cage. This comment sums it up perfectly: http://np.reddit.com/r/TwoXChromosomes/comments/1hwn5l/is_anyone_else_sort_of_tired_of_this_sub/caypnvw

I don't get harassed (sexually or otherwise) in my daily life. I never had a problem with co-workers, and now that I'm back in college, my professors treat men and women the same.

I actually went through a huge questioning thing with myself over whether I was an attractive woman because I don't get harassed. I was like, it happens to all these other people why have I not noticed it? Is there something about me that is less harass-able than the average woman? What does that mean?

Sometimes you just have to pull your head out of the bubble and think about what this would sound like in the real, non-internet world.

It's quite telling that members of even that subreddit are ashamed of feminist victim-worship and bigotry.

Radical feminist voices dominate gender discussion because people are afraid to speak up against bullies. We all need to remind ourselves that the typical western woman is not a radical feminist (yet); she's just bullied into going with the flow.

Be aggressive and direct when confronting feminist bigots. Don't pepper your statements with apologies and needless qualifiers. Let other people know that they're not alone.

TL;DR - Being politically correct is exhuasting. And wastes everyone's time.

That about sums up the entire thread and why people don't like TwoX.

I am surprised and impressed by the support that this post is getting on /r/TwoX. Maybe there is hope for humanity after all.

It is very telling when you go through a men's forums and you see a wide range of topics like: hair loss, workout tips, homosexuality, male sexual questions, sports performance, penis size, etc. It is what you expect. A ton of different topics with a bias towards some questions/discussion on very private matters that you would feel uncomfortable discussing with people face-to-face and you would like to have the anonymity of the Internet.

But when you look at a public woman's forum such as TwoX, it is heavily dominated by stuff on sexual harassment/assault, needing an abortion, and boyfriend problems. None of these issues should even be in a women-only forum because men have valid input. Some of the rare posts with a young girl asking about whether it is normal for her body to be doing X during puberty, that is suitable for a women-only fourm, because you wouldn't expect men to have any clue on the subject (also, it's an embarassing topic that people may feel more comfortable talking to the same sex about, even with the anonymity of the Internet).

Thanx that was beautiful , my sides are hurting hahaha, wow . It's funny when they are hamstering unless you actually happen to be there and here it in person then it is just tiring ...

The fact that it's so heavily upvoted is quite moving. Although I have my suspicions that the majority of the 2x userbase is 14-20y.o. girls.

In other words, all that shit that they upvoted before will continue to get upvoted. The community is too big, and the main userbase vastly outnumbers the good users.

After taking the red pill, I have nothing but pity for women without strong men to lead them. This twox community example underscores their collective curse. They are literally complaining that there is nothing but meaningless complaining going on around that community. The meta-level-complaint is as good as it gets for them, they can not escape the gravity of their own vapid interests. Complaining about the overall situation of their communal existence is as meaningful as it gets. But, the complaint is like a fish having the realization that it is wet: miraculously insightful, yet futile.

All the lulz.
