Lemmy is a worse platform for women than Reddit was EDIT this link is an OLD POST that contains my thesis on the state of lemmy and is not the context of the much more recent comment in the screenshot. sorry for any confusion caused by this juxtaposition, my main goal with having this linked is to expose how nothing has improved

No, I think the reply is appropriate enough. The comment you quoted is an extremely mysogynist take, falling right into the incel perspective of "if women refuse to have sex with men, they are inconsiderate."

The value of women is not just for men to have sex with them—they have the agency to decide for themselves what they want to do with their own bodies. This is basically what the downvoted post is saying. Women choosing not to put out doesn't "radicalize" incels any more than women showing a bit of skin creates rapists.

If there are men who can't get over the fact that some women might choose not to have sex with them for political reasons, they can read Lysistrata or something.
