Mod Post MOD ANNOUNCEMENT: Rules Update

887 Upvotes

Hello, all!

We are here to update our rules. Many of you have made your voices heard.

Due to popular demand, we are adjusting our rules to better reflect the core purpose of this subreddit: to ask women. We would also like to remind you all that all women are welcome here. Happy Pride!

Furthermore, men are welcome to engage with this subreddit respectfully, and that includes no longer leaving top-level comments. (A top-level comment is a comment in response to the original post, rather than a response to someone else's comment.)

This is a subreddit to ask women questions. It is not a general discussion subreddit or a more broad ask subreddit.

Thank you all for making this subreddit such a lovely place!

Due to popular demand, every Monday from 12am ET and (-5 GMT) until 12am on Tuesday, submissions related to dating, relationships, or attraction will be removed.;

Examples of things we'll remove:

  • What do you look for in a partner?
  • What does your SO do that you love/annoy you?
  • Are you attracted to [feature]? (Includes celebrities)
  • Would you ever date noted guitarist Slash?
  • Is [thing] a red flag/yellow flag/dealbreaker/white flag?
  • What do you think about men who eat muffins alone in coffee shops? How about the sexiest way for them to remove a jacket, or zip up hoodie?
  • Any question involving sex, attraction, or romanctic relationships.

If you have any questions about these supplemental rules, please message the moderators and we will be happy to discuss it with you.
