(hexbear.net)
I've been here years and I'm still getting new ones that make me laugh
"The only women here are women" is a wild take but ok
Oof yeah our haters are always the nicest people hmm? Actually I might put a transphobia warning on this post because yeah it's oof.
Wamen, am I right?
The explanation that used to go around was that it was because we started as a lifeboat from a subreddit. Reddit has disproportionately few cis women who are disproportionately likely to only post in female-majority subreddits.
However, it's been way too long since we were a subreddit for that to still be the reason for the underrepresentation on Hexbear, especially considering that there have been multiple large user influxes since then.
I have some kinda complex thoughts on this, but I think it's site culture related and there's been a lot of user pushback to change in that regard.
