I'd agree, but i'm nonbinary and 95% of the shit i get comes from women. what's the holiday where women are self-reflective and acknowledge the wrongs they have and are committing? the day where we stop coddling them? or are you going to have me banned just for asking a question

Let me preface this by saying I get you. I have also been sexually assaulted and harassed by women, and I agree that those people do not get enough punishment.

We have international women's day and international men's day to acknowledge the struggles of each gender, their achievements, and their importance. The actions of the rotten of society do not outweigh the struggles many face for their genders or the good they have done for the world. The women who did horrible things to you did not do so because they are women, but because they are bad people. I am sorry about what happened, and I truly do empathise, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't celebrate women.

thank you, and i appreciate this. i just like throwing it in ladybutterfly's face because she has this little community with a bot set up to sexually harrass people she deems aren't female enough.

[–] unknowablenight@piefed.social 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I know the account is a bot, but from what I've seen, it doesn't sexually harass people. Can you send me some links?

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

kinda hard to since i've blocked it and i'm banned for not being female enough, also having been sexually harassed.

[–] unknowablenight@piefed.social 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that. Is it the Womensstuff community? I was actually just reading their rules, and it says enbies are allowed if they feel that community is applicable to them.

I KNOW RIGHT

I think they haven't figured out that "fuck off, you aren't woman enough" boilerplate is still "fuck off, you're not woman enough" no matter how much you candy coat it

[–] unknowablenight@piefed.social 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I've never actually been in that community, but if you're banned for "not being female enough", then it probably isn't a very good community anyway. I'm sorry to hear that happened to you. Also, I'm reading the rules, and rule #7 prohibits AI from masquerading as human, which it seems the Lady Butterfly account is. It is constantly posting in so many different communities, that I have speculated for some time that is is a bot, but it's not disclosed on its profile. Has anyone ever reported the account for this?

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

oh, the admins will side with the bot.

[–] unknowablenight@piefed.social 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Oh, you think so? Also, Sorry about this but I completely forgot PieFed is different from the other instances 😭 it was 5:00 I was sleep deprived I'm sorry.

it has been my experience.

Bro what? Why would we have an international acknowledgement of women's crimes day

i have been sexually assaulted by 3 men and so many women i have lost count. Women do it with impunity because the crimes go uninvestigated when you report it. but oh no, women will not reckon with the truth that they think they cannot rape or sexually assault people.

This is a bad take on a bad day to be making such a bad take and the phrase 'just asking a question' is like the textbook red flag for a bad faith troll.

i take it you have not interacted with ladybutterfly before
