im so sick of seeing reports regarding men posting in women-only communities and i cant help but get annoyed with these guys.

the rules are clearly presented. either youre not paying attention or youre just an asshole who purposefully throws their opinion in a place explicitly not wanting it.

what the fuck is wrong with you guys?

    Cite sources of your claim, prove it, and spend ages providing material that I will dismiss as irrelevant!

    That just seems like an objection whiners raise when they dislike challenges: they

    • find the burden of supporting their argument coherently too taxing or
    • don’t know how to resolve mutually accepted premises or
    • don’t like assumptions questioned.

    No one needs to answer challenges to their argument or “spend ages providing material”. By that same token, no one else needs to care about a weak, poorly defended argument.

    It’s easy enough to ignore or reciprocate preposterous lines of questioning: seems like a skills issue.

    As for “sowing discord”, there’s a strong philosophical tradition of doing pretty much that (ie, shamelessly, impudently breaking conformity to unchallenged conventions & assumptions) to dispel “false belief, mindlessness, folly, and conceit” in the pursuit of “mental clarity or lucidity”. They were called dogs & would even state “other dogs bite their enemies, I bite my friends to save them”. Such classical philosophers might be called trolls nowadays.

    Any system that treats them as trolls is broken in my opinion.
