Genuinely confused about the amount of men that lurk this sub to be creeps.

r/

I posted the other day about a personal struggle with validation from men, and got some beautiful responses from other women. It really picked me up and empowered me. So thank for you for that ❤️🙏

BUT I also have an inbox full of messages from men asking me personal questions or wanting to give me advice on my situation.

Dudes… this place is called ask WOMEN for a reason. If we wanted your input we wouldn’t have asked here. It’s also not a place to try to pick up vulnerable women. Just stop inserting yourself where you’re not wanted ffs 🤦‍♀️

    The same thing happens in lesbian spaces on here, it’s weird.

    They lurk ALL women-focused Subs to derail, debate, deny, dismiss, disrespect, creep, perv and harass.

    A lot of the men are making top level comments and sharing their insights and cutting women. We have been flagging it a lot. They are other spaces and subs where you need to prove you are a woman to be accepted, so you can go to these places too.

    I made a post on /r/sex once looking for advice and got over 200 DMs

    I don’t think there’s anything wrong with men adding anything if they have advice that’s helpful personally. It can be quite refreshing to have a different perspective sometimes cos the 2 genders really do seem things differently.

    However the ones just using it to pick up vulnerable women, they’re just sick 🤬
