At least online, anonymity plays a part, but the discussions seem to have a lot of masculine energy to them. Is it maybe also like music, chess, or comedy where socialization plays a role in the male dominance?
I remember 60% of Bernie’s constituency was female, but it doesn’t seem to translate online. How can we work to attract more women to the movement?
A lot of irl leftist stuff tends to be majority women, actually. This place, on the other hand, is a niche internet space that grew out of an old subreddit. It’s not representative of leftism as a whole.
The thing about the discussions here having “masculine energy” makes me wonder if this post is a bit.
