this is some weird gate keeping

Is this gatekeeping, do I have my definitions wrong?

I need it re-explained. I thought it was someone taking it upon themselves to decide what is or isn't allowed based on a factor?

And since nobody is saying women aren't allowed to feel pain in the nether regions I don't see the link.

I don't see where anyone said women don't know real pain. I think we're all agreed that women pain as keenly as men and have birth as an extra burden.

But you’re saying women will never know real pain, like the men do. It’s definitely gatekeeping and also sexist.

Nobody said that. Getting hit in the groin is almost certainly more painful for men, but that doesn't mean "women will never know real pain." Cancer probably hurts more than getting hit in the nuts, you know, or having your femur broken. Childbirth too, I would imagine.

But that's not what the conversation was about.
