Horrible choice. However, its shittiness reflects the essence of this stereotype-ridden communities. You know, woman do not need to wear sexy undergarmets?
The entire trope of "Ask A" is ignorant and naive. Do you really think any self-respecting person would honestly answer such questions that generalise an entire group of people? Just ask this in real life where you have to look into someones face. I know this requires courage and actually meeting people (and leave your comfort zone).
The lack of creativity and creeping bigotry/misogyny are really turning lemny into reddit... Shame.
Yeah the creation of this community is extremely cringe tbh

Hence the name, ask a woman. The hope is that you get answers that reflect the diversity of the population that the question was posed to. Unfortunately, the history of such subreddits is often such that what men want to hear gets upvoted, and more honest answers languish.
Just ask this in real life where you have to look into someones face.
Some questions can be considered impolite to ask or violates some culture's norm. Posing them online gives a buffer. Sure talking face to face is usually more informative, but not always.
Thank you
should be called "askwomen" to account for the possibility that there is more than one woman on the lemmyverse =P
This will end well.
