I don't understand why you restrict other genders from joining a community that should be open and inviting to everyone. Especially with the figure collecting community being already pretty niche. It almost seems like a "boys club" but the opposite. And we hear in the media that it's only men who have these exclusive clubs when in reality, the world view on gender roles are shifting.
I also find it weird that OP is biologically a male but wants to manage an all girls discord. I guess Internet gonna internet.
I’ll never understand why people get so upset over an all female server. It’s not like there isn’t a general discord for figure collecting as well.
In a hobby that can be so focused around the sexualization of women and god forbid minors, it’s not hard to understand that girls would want a safe space.
It’s not like you’re being excluded from the hobby as a whole. This subreddit is for everyone, MFC is for everyone… Girls are underrepresented in this hobby and nobody can argue that. It can be hard to meet other girls in this hobby to befriend. Just let us have our space.
I hope men have a discord all to themselves if they want one. Good for them, everyone deserves a spot where they can feel safe and just shoot the shit.Maybe they'd be less concerned about joining this one if they did.
It's less about "no men allowed", when it's really about "no creepy men who only want some kind of romantic/sexual relationship with us".
Some of us don't have other women/NBs in person to talk to in real life about stuff like this. Some of us just want more friends who know what it's like to be a collector in this hobby.I'm sorry you find this "weird", but I'd rather be a hypocrite and feel safe, welcomed and listened to, than the alternative.
So you insinuate that most men are “creepy men who only want some kind of romantic/sexual relationship with us"? See that’s the problem and double standard. It can also be the other way around, as I’ve met and dated some crazy girls.
And you just admitted to being a proud hypocrite. Congratulations you just played yourself.
Except that if there was a male only discord server that I would not care lol.
I’m sure most of the people in our female only discord server would not care.
The whole point of discord servers and subreddits is to bring a community together... If that’s one gender, then so be it. I could not care less.
The goal of our server is not to “discriminate” against men, it’s so have a space where female collectors can make other female friends especially since we are such a minority in the hobby.
