Have you considered… Asking them? If they lie they lie and you’ll find out they’re a shit person (and know it) pretty shortly.

But yeah if you want to get psycho about it just follow them to work.

Y u put hair in your meme?

Not every men’s group is a shitty stereotype.

determine the relative “okayness” in an individual case

Well, yeah?

OP asked the question in general terms, I answered in general terms. With more specific information you can make a more specific judgement. That’s why I said “stereotype, not rule” and separated is vs ought?

I don’t need to list out every possible reason someone might want a gendered group to show that there is a valid reason. Instead just give one. In fact I avoided talking about domestic abuse shelters exactly to avoid this sort of ‘whataboutism’.

As ~always with gender and politics, there’s a pretty big gap between what is and what ought.

What is: The people who make and seek out men-only groups have a stereotype of being shitty, sexist people. The stereotypes around women-only groups are a lot weaker and less negative. These stereotypes are not rules, but do certainly lead to some social stigma.

What ought 1: In a better world gender-specific groups might exist for people to find support and connection around their gendered experiences. There’s some experiences that aren’t commonly shared across genders and it can be a lot easier and safer to share with people who you know also have that experience.

What ought 2: In a still better world there wouldn’t be a significant desire for such groups because we are all sensitive and caring enough that such a group doesn’t make sharing meaningfully easier or safer, because it’s already easy and safe.

Be careful to make sure that it doesn’t spoil faster in water. And that it doesn’t settle

Yes. Haven’t even had any really bad scrapes or anything.

Some odd I pass out from blood loss (like everyone). Or pain. Also I’m gonna have even more wicked scars on the sides of my fingers. But like, no broken bones and no major trauma is just really survivable.

Uhh, clouds? Duh

Fuck you Un-guy’s your Fieri

Fits with the theme of the comic tho

from the tangles ooo-of my heart

That’s what I’ve been doing. It’s really lonely

If you’re confused it’s fine to just ask which one to use

Oh, and since this seems to be the space you’re working in:

I did use Dude in a gendered way there because I assume from your preachiness that you’re Male. Women tend to be less preachy/overexplainer in my experience. If I happen to be wrong, apologies, I’ll edit it if/once you clarify.

Dude, sometimes people talk in, like, a casual way and don’t attach two extra paragraphs to explain that they were using the word “god” in a gender neutral way even though it has a masculine form.

You then writing a diatribe about it doesn’t convince anybody. And in the end it actually hurts our case because it brings to mind and reinforces that awful stereotype of the bitter, over reactive SJW.

Is that kolananski?

Go and Python and Typescript all have their own footguns.

I assume Rust is the same, but haven’t used it personally to see
