Yeah, this really does happen and it's fucking disgusting. Dogs are rancid.

Either way, I usually can't stand browsing 2X for more than a page's worth of posts.

All they do is talk about periods.

Originally I subscribed to 2x for research and development purposes. I am now certain that the term "fairer of the sexes" is a misnomer.

I would disagree.

MR, if you can ignore the outright vitrol of some posters and the abrasive/defensive culture, is more based on news/ideology. The closest communities, in content type, would be feminisms or women (though their ideology is certainly... different).

2XC is more of a community community than a community about an ideology. Humour and personal stories are a lot more common. Its closest comparison would be OneY. These are the kinder, friendlier 'gendered' reddits, IMO.

Both of them are filled with people who are fucking insane and people who are perfectly fucking sane.

Not seeing it. What's the problem?

Shoe comparisons and 10 posts about periods.

Shouldn't you be glad its not on the main Reddit? Its not gonna be "Reddit with more ladies!"- its just ladies posting ladies only things. They take all the other stuff to the main boards.

I guess that does make some sense. I guess it's just a little shocking what women prefer to talk about when they are 'just among girls'. I sure as hell don't talk diarrhea and semen when I'm hanging with the guys.

I think its more like rants about beard shaving acne that get to the front page. There are some basic differences between boys and girls. It just happens to be that our girls' different trait involves lots of blood and pain.

That said, that comic was nasty. I believe that was the point...to gross for delicate gentlemen hence the reason it wasn't in the rage sub.

I don't think the comic was that bad at all. Anyone who owns a dog/cat knows they like the oddest things.

Spending any significant amount of time at twoXchromosomes will guarantee that you become 100% convinced women are completely insane.

I read it when I want to feel better about being gay.

[–]swedishdelight 0 points1 point ago

Gay seems like a very good alternative even for a straight male after just a few posts.

I'm thankful that most women I know in person aren't like those of TwoXChromosomes.

[–]Brinstar 5 points6 points ago

Actually, they are. They just don't tell you...because just as in this thread you will go "EWW GROSS".

I'm female and I don't frequent 2XC--I find it to be a bit eye rolling.

[–]Failshire 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

And? Are you trying to earn some cred or something? Not everyone likes everything, sure. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean you have to insult it, no?

[–]itchylot 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I was just responding to the person's generalization that most women are like those in 2XC. I personally don't care for the subreddit, but apparently expressing my opinion means I'm being insulting and trying to seem cool.

[–]Failshire 3 points4 points ago*

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

In my book, 'eye rolling' and 'personally not caring for something' are two different things entirely. You are entitled to your own opinion, of course. The way you worded your opinion is why it seemed kind of insulting, which is what I was addressing.

To be fair, I didn't read the rest of the conversation as clearly as I thought, as I took your 'I'm female' portion as part of a general trend of women judging other women to make themselves look better that we see on Reddit. I missed the point of the earlier posts. It was bad reading on my part, and unfair to project an issue I have with reddit on you. Apologies in that regard.

[–]tellos65 -1 points0 points ago

Holy shits. I do not want to know that it even exists. Read two posts, and got the he'll out of there. It was like another world, one I do not want to know about.

I have two x chromosomes, and they lost me at showing pictures of their fucking shoes. Still, it takes all kinds?

I would've up voted but you were at 42

[–]making_sammiches -2 points-1 points ago

(F here) Holy hell. This is why I don't talk to most women. I didn't understand it in high school, I don't understand it now. Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!
