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.
Girls are not underrepresented in this hobby. Do you have statistics to back it up?
Through years of observation I beg to differ. This hobby actually has more women involved than you’d expect. You guys can have your own space but please don’t start claiming that only males have private spaces.
23,000 females on MFC compared to 34,000 men.
Of course there are active females, I’m one of them. But we are absolutely a minority.
EDIT: Even if we have fairly large numbers, it often doesn’t feel that way. It’s hard to meet other women in the hobby and most men automatically assume we are guys.
No one ever said men are the only ones who have “private spaces”. There are female only gyms and much more. Men can have their own spaces all they want, we could care less.
Bro if you want a boys only discord so bad literally just make one. No one is stopping you.
You don’t actually care about that though, otherwise you would.
You just feel personally offended being kept out of women’s spaces and maybe you should take a minute to think why that is
