Why is /r/TwoXChromosomes a default sub? Where's the male equivalent? Why bother subscribing anyone to either by default?

Admins have an agenda.

Fortunately, TwoX has pretty much been stifled by being a default because their bullshit gets called out now while it didn't before. For awhile after they went default, they still tried to delete and ban opposing views. But the dissent has become too overwhelming and they simply can't keep up with it.

because the admins of reddit are feminists

Watch out for that sub. While r-feminism will ban you for disagreeing, twoxchromosomes will usually shadow-ban you and you will never know. I was shadowbanned from there for a few weeks before I figured it out, and when I asked the mods about it I didn't get a response. Make sure your posts are actually visible before you spend time writing there.

This has pissed me off since I joined reddit. Such an obvious pandering. Imagine if The_donald was a defualt sub.

Many in 2xc subs hate the fact that it is default sub now. Their opinions had to be mellowed down than earlier when it was not.

MRA should not be default sub, this sub and it's interests does not have the privilege of being acceptable to general public. It is not resourceful enough to withstand onslaught of thousands of crazies. Many times unsuitable posts from this thread went main page and results where not majorly good. So, let this sub stay as a safe place for men.

There is the One Y sub?

1111111cheese · 2017-03-13T03:03:07+00:00

Because during Yishan's waning tenure as CEO of Reddit he needed good PR a few crisises ago so it dumped an active subreddit that had a real community into default, loudly patted itself on the back and walked away, never revisiting the decision. The userbase was destroyed, the sub is under a joyless lockdown and ridiculously aggressive censorship holding pattern than angers the remaining userbase but the mods don't care because they love the power and trolling from their alts. You can tell this because they'll go into a thread often a whole week later and rip apart any comment chain that persuasively disproves The Narrative, but leave up comments from a few specific accounts that just hurl insults and put downs but do so on the side of feminism. Look at any wage gap article and the mods will lay low and then tear it to paces days after it has fell of the face of the earth. its hilarious.

TwoX is now really more of a fun game to play of how readily can you build up karma by saying carefully-wrapped earnest but against the grain hard truths until the mods notice and freak out, and delete every comment you've made that they didn't realize was anti-feminist.

because it is beneficial to cater to females. by making 2x default it makes the female presence seem much greater.

Because the only men that matter already have everything they need and then some. That's why men have privilege.

Women want to be equal with those men. You're a boy. If you get assaulted you're a pussy attention whore bitch but if she feels unsafe we need to do something about it and repent for the sins of being a boy. The entire culture is set up to reward women and those men sexually, while the boys are tax slave hopefully dead soon by suicide loser attention whore pussies who pay for birth control that leeches into the water and makes them more feminine which garners mockery by those wonderful amazing women who are so incredible and caring and kind. We need to make little boys more feminine and girls more masculine and then when the women don't change anything and act like they always did and not evolve we just kill the boys indirectly. Like an egg factory.

Thank you.

kaaaaaaaatiecakes · 2017-03-13T12:56:44+00:00

I only go in xx when I feel my blood pressure is low. I liked it for the drama, but now it's either whining about birth control or rape stories.

Hasmond · 2017-03-13T02:06:41+00:00

I honestly think it's a good thing, it funnels men into the sub and those men comment on threads. Like there was one a couple of days ago about a women who had gotten raped and her bf wanted to break up because he couldn't handle it and the comments actually defended him (the highest rated comment with several thousand up votes said that the bf did nothing wrong amongst several more)

LimaHotel807 · 2017-03-13T07:09:09+00:00

I wanna clarify that I don't necessarily want this sub to be a default sub, I'm merely pointing out yet another one-up against real equality.

Arthas_Greyjoy · 2017-03-13T09:11:00+00:00

I don't care much for the well being of this website so it's ok to me.

PowerWisdomCourage · 2017-03-13T13:03:19+00:00

Weren't all subs with over a certain amount of subscribers asked if they wanted to be a default? I can absolutely be mistaken here but I swear I read that a while back.

Edit: grammar because, although I clock in at 7:30, my brain doesn't come in until noon.

OneY is the male equivalent subreddit to TwoXChromosomes. I'm not sure why TwoX became default. Perhaps it was some sort of PR move for Reddit to attract more women? I know it was an unpopular decision in TwoX. Many users unsubscribed because there was an influx of new users that changed the community. Voices were now dominated from the users from /r/all. I think OneY will also be hurt if it were to become a default subreddit. A lot of people on Reddit just don't care for/oppose the MRM.

FreedDrugsTinyGuns · 2017-03-13T03:02:35+00:00

TwoX is pretty much just filled with men anyway. What does it matter?
