it sounds like in this case he feels like being a gay man grants him entry to a woman-only space? He does seem strangely entitled to it, and maybe IRL that’s how it works (maybe people divide more based on sexuality than gender, I have certainly seen the stereotypical effeminate gay man accepted in women’s spaces, he is perceived as “safe” because of his sexuality and effeminacy). It’s interesting, assuming he’s commenting in good faith and not just using his sexuality because it’s rhetorically useful in this situation.
Literally every man who has commented in a women-only space feels their opinion is sufficiently valid to make them the exception.
Every. Single. One.
It’s so fucking infuriating!
“As a father with a daughter…”
“As a gay man…”
“As a random passing man who once saw a woman at a distance I think…”
They all think they’re entitled to it. They all think that they’re the special exception to a straight up, simple rule that’s only two words long: “Women. Only.”

Thanks sp3, due to your repeated rule breaking I’ve had to ban you. All the very best for your future
See, it’s always about the man, isn’t it? He can’t take “no” for an answer. Any limit on his actions is an affront which must be confronted.
They’re worse than toddlers, these Menfolk of Lemmy, aren’t they?
