You responded to a 5 month old post and said it's fine to shame men for not falling for toxic masculinity, using a gendered insult in the process. Your single comment was removed, and you decided this was a power trip worthy of posting here within the hour. YDI

Take the L mate. You talked shit and faced consequences.

Hmm, why don't you look for something useful to do if performance is important to you? Not to be mean or anything, but I think this isn't cutting it.

Well, yes it's ingrained misogyny, and it's also ingrained into modern language. The mod can't expect to force people to stop using a word they personally disagree with, especially if it's normalised in the speaker's world. Censorship of basic speech and expression is the reason some of us left Reddit ffs

Edit: Read your comment. Your whole comment reads like a poor attempt at an argument which never existed.

• Emotions are part of humanity and creatures with autonomy, to unconditionally stifle emotions is to reject the idea that you exist in any meaningful way.
• No, it is never "right to shame others".
• You've perceived a decreased performance in what way?

Sorry to check you like this, but some of the things you've stated don't entirely align with my worldview. I am of the belief that all beings are valid and deserve, at the most basic level, a free life and general comfort. Ridiculing someone can negatively impact this, and as modern life is already hostile to the vast majority, being nice to folk is the least we can do.

Pussy word is used for men who ~~lacks daring in reasonable situations~~ do not measure up to the rapey, violent and/or generally vile standards of toxic masculine behaviour.

FTFY.

Because its association with vagina, so using it as an insult is akin to calling men "effeminate". Calling them womanlike for supposedly being timid is insulting to women and therefore misogynist.

Probably they are sexist if they think woman can not be unemotional, stoic, strong and courageous.

🤣🤣 these attempts at defending bigoted insults by turning the accusations around are always pretty funny but this is twe most hamfisted attempt I've seen yet.

Also how is unemotional a desirable quality in a person? Serial killer shit right there

You all are just making up shit to be mad about now. Bro, if ya call people negative names, good chance you get banned. From lots of communities. How about you just make your point without name calling?

Try calling your boss a pussy. Then try telling that boss that you don't see it as a bad word. See what happens.

I'm not against calling people names. In fact, I love calling people pussies when I get pissed off. But I wouldn't fall over in shock if some mod removed me for it. And I wouldn't look into the history of the insult and try to find out why it's not insulting. Language use is fluid. Lots of things are insults for weird reasons.

Now you're using this community to try to redefine insult words?!

YDI

I think its funny how the word cunt is like asshole whereas pussy is like coward. I can't think of any other part of the anatomy with such versatility.

You'll find the same attitude from the mods in this community.
