Antisexism
This community is about Antisexism, a joint movement of men, women and nonbinary people against gender stereotypes and all sorts of gender-based discrimination.
Here you can share useful materials (articles, research, statistics, opinions...) on gender-based discrimination against men, women, and nonbinary people, and participate in common discussions and activities.
Rules:
1. No promotion of patriarchy (or matriarchy)
Systems based on dominance of one gender harm everyone, including, often times, people in the dominant group. They are intrinsically sexist and therefore strictly forbidden in this community.
2. Be civil and listen before you speak
The issues of gender equality often come as contentious. Remember - there are no enemies here! The purpose of this place is to discuss and find solutions together.
3. Respect personal experiences
All of us have different history and issues regarding gender stereotypes. Every experience is valid! Don't try to belittle it.
4. Everyone is welcome!
Antisexism is about everyone: men, women and nonbinary, cis- and trans-people. Every group and every person individually have unique experiences that we need to address.

Like any word "feminism" is subject to fluctuating definitions. Historically, and currently on the academic level, feminism is indeed synonymous with anti-sexism.
However there is a wide range of people who use it to mean misandry. The gender wars narrative is becoming massive in the society.
The male side of it is widely spoken about, represented by Andrew Tate and such, but there is also a female side who unfortunately appropriated the name of feminism.
For a while I used Tiktok, and half of my feed was stuff like "men are useless emotionless parasites". I was definitely served that as algorithmic ragebait, but I wonder how many actually think like that.
