We have no problem with gay people. We have no problem with porn per se. But porn (of whatever kind) does not belong in the sidebar, especially if it is not marked as NSFW.

I've asked for help since it doesn't appear to be simple.
I do have rules in my uBlock configuration that remove the random sections on the user side, but that of course does not help for new users who visit this place.
In case you do have uBlock, here are the rules you can paste in "My Filters":
kbin.social##.section.posts
kbin.social##.section.entries
kbin.social##.active-users.section
kbin.social##.related-magazines.section.magazines
kbin.social##.kbin-promo.section--no-bg.section
Yes, this is a problem, especially since some of the federated content from other servers is not labeled as NSFW, when it obviously should be. This is an unintended side-effect of me having chosen the "men" namespace. Let me see if I can fix it in the magazine stylesheet.
Chris Williamson is a good guy who makes lots of interesting content. He is very close to us in many of his views, but he steers clear of adopting labels. He tries to avoid being associated with the "manosphere", but still talks intelligently about men's issues. He's a good one to follow.
What does it say about me?
That you appear to be blind to the demonization of men so rampant within feminism, either willfully or because you're a victim of its propaganda machine.
Exactly - there is masculinity and toxic masculinity.
Does feminism ever talk about positive masculinity? That's the problem: they habitually associate masculinity with toxicity. And the characteristics of a gender (what it means to be a man, or a woman) cannot be toxic.
Instead they should be more careful with their terminology and use for example toxic gender expectations. But they don't. And that's telling for a movement that is so sensitive to gendered language.
What exactly should I do with random raddit posts and a tedX talk? If you have arguments bring them here and let’s discuss.
If you're interested in getting familiar with our arguments and the evidence, then there are some sources. They are not "random".
And if you're not interested, then I think we're done here.
It was very evident on r/MGTOW before that sub got banned. It's why I distanced LWMA in very strong terms so as to not suffer the same fate.
How can you not see the evidence that is staring you in the face?
Curios, since I’m a men and never felt demonized by feminism.
That says more about you than about feminism...
Dude, they don’t call masculinity toxic
They do. They always talk about toxic masculinity, never any other kind. Does that not strike you as intentional?
And you can deny its misandry, but it is obvious to us.
I could link you some resources, but I'm not sure if you're willing to read them and let them challenge your views.

And that's just the beginning of the rabbit hole.
ShoeOnHead is usually good and supportive of men.
But a description of a video is always good practice.
Feminism habitually demonizes men, not the powerful. Their boogeyman is called after fathers, not the few people who actually rule and have power. They call masculinity (the characteristics of a gender) toxic. It is misandrist to the core.
feminism is not biased against men as individuals
Oh great! It's just biased against us as a gender.
You know, that's still sexism.
This. Many women (especially young ones) haven't thought too deeply about the matter, and have simply swallowed the propaganda that feminism is for gender equality. If the woman you're wanting to date is one of those, I don't necessarily see a problem. But if she's regurgitating misandrist nonsense, then avoid like the plague.
