If you support free speech, you must support people pinging other users. It's completely legal speech. If you won't defend pinging as free speech because you or someone else finds it disgusting, then no speech that you or anyone else views as disgusting is safe.

if it is in fact on shaky legal ground it's reasonable to not want to be the case that establishes it as illegal.

It's not, The reddit admins are straight up lying to the ignorant (like yourself) to justify their prejudice. Pinging being protected speech has long since been estabilished, as it has undeniable artistic merit. The only time it's been included under any obscenity laws is when someone is being charged with possession of harassment, so the state can slap them with more charges. The courts have been very careful to not charge anyone for pinging, because they'd get their asses fucking annihilated by a higher court due to the firm precedence of pinging being completely legal speech. /r/Drama had nothing to worry about, this guy was just making shit up to fool people into thinking his censoring wasn't entirely personally motivated.

So strong wahmen DO need men after all?

Who could have possibly predicted this!?

Foids were a mistake

We need to improve test tube baby technology and then we can rid ourselves of the foid menace.

Axlotl tanks when?

Anal wombs when?

Finally those Snape MPREG fics will be reality

I haven't seen them get this upset since Chad left for Thailand, claiming that "Bussy just smelled better than gussy."

Male managers are so absolutely fucking based and redpilled.

Yeah, what else did foids think was gonna happen. I won't be surprised if corporations and businesses reduce the number of their foid employees in future.

Less risk, less foids, it's a win win

This is very click-baity title. If you go on to read the article and how they collect the data it’s more than just men mentoring women, it includes social interaction as well.

60% of managers who are men are uncomfortable participating in a common work activity with a woman, such as mentoring, working alone, or socializing together.

I like how she thinks this somehow makes it better.

It actually does make it better tho

based

Yeah. The actual problem is that they are comfortable with mentoring, working alone or socializing with a man. This is the disturbing part imho.

I love how frustrated everyone in that thread is. Then there's the massively upvoted post about how male managers should just put themselves in the way of potential harm... for some kind of nebulous greater good. lol

If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear, moids.
