I scrolled down TwoX today. A year ago, even a few months ago, this was a rather hostile environment for men. Justifying generalized hate toward men, endorsing forms of collective punishment for men (that is, cancelling human protections and rights of men as human beings), stereotyping all men as violent or dangerous, was not uncommon (responding to all this was forbidden - any objection would get you banned for good, before anyone could even know that an objection was raised). And I was surprised and happy to see that the atmosphere is much more civil today. To give an example, just a few months ago a proposal to avoid any relations with men and instead form a culture of female-only, non-sexual (non-lesbian) households where women will support each other like in a family but without creating a family, was endorsed by thousands - today I saw a post there by someone telling the others that her boyfriend proposed (and she's not even trans nor the proposer - an ordinary woman telling TwoX about her excitement from being proposed), and even receiving some 600 endorsements. And mostly the other subjects were important subjects that concern women like endometriosis, or even simply rational comments like how woman-warriors in movies lack credibility when easily defeating large men while skinny male characters doing that will be evidently unreliable (although the feminist misinformation in the background was almost heartbreaking - this particular OP was so misled by feminist depiction of women in movies that only when joining as an adult some martial arts class had she realized that throwing a large person around is very difficult, and particularly difficult for a woman to do to a man. She describes how baffled by it she was after years of watching movies, shaped by feminism, which shows the influence of feminism. She could have put herself at risk because of misconceptions created by feminists through movies, created - due to the feminist belief that only "perceptions" and "depictions" create human beings).
I'm not sure if it's a fluke or a trend, and whether or not it has anything to do with men being able to refute feminist stereotypes about maleness by being able to object to them here openly with data and personal stories, but I wanted to share, maybe there's some hope for a better future for all - men and women alike? : )
