    As a completely un-related person flying by with no stake in this, this feels unnecessary. For one, the usual recommendation in the Threadiverse is to combine niche subs to try and keep some life in them. Do we really need three subs for this? On a more personal note, I don’t like that this re-inforces / reminds people of the “men can’t be raped” rhetoric. How about just ban anyone who makes such a stupid point on the main comm?

      It’s a request for numbers of others Lemmings to separate genders into my communities. Initally, I wanted to made just Sexual Assault Survivors, but on AskLemmy, some Lemmings wants a separation for women, men, and families & friends. So, I made it. The goal isn’t to blame anyone, I’m just responding to the community request.

        Hey,

        I had a look at https://lemmy.world/post/54072534 (as this is where I guess you got your feedback).

        There seems to be a misunderstanding between the feedback and you segregating women and men in two separate communities.

        How about just having !sexualassaultsurvivors , as the single community for victims (whatever their genders), their friends and families?

        I read that as the suggestion people had for you in the comments (maybe I’m wrong), but it seemed like you understood it in a different way.
