Yes, I've read many posts the current state of reddit. But today, somehow I thought it can't be that bad if I just go looking for some funny videos.

Boy, was I wrong. This post was at the top of my feed, and briefly scrolling through the comments got me out of there without looking at anything else ☠️

  You wouldn't describe a man as "a male", and you wouldn't refer to your mother as "a female".
  
  I certainly would and do describe people by "male" or "female" daily, along with everyone in the military, and anyone else that isn't afraid of words.
Try posting in r/AskWomen; it has always been like that.
- ... unwelcoming of misogyny? Surprising.
  
  That's a misguided assumption. There's a mod in that sub who habitually deletes posts and comments for no good reason, which inspired the creation of r/AskWomenNoCensor.
