A Gender Abolition Community on Lemmy

Welcome to !genderabolition@lemmy.blahaj.zone a community dedicated to the discussion of the Gender Abolition movement, and general discussions around gender abolition. This community is open both to people who are gender abolitionists themselves, or those curious about Gender Abolition.

What is gender Abolition?

Gender abolition is the belief that gender roles and gender stereotypes as societal constructs are harmful and oppressive and must be eliminated to create a more free and accepting society. Gender abolition is often also referred to as post-genderism or Gender Anarchy.

A post-gender society doesn’t mean that everyone is expected to appear or present androgynous. It means people are allowed to present in whatever way they want or feel comfortable without the risk of discrimination or harassment.

Disclaimer

Gender Abolition does not share anything in common with the TERF movement “Gender Critical” which tries to frame itself as similar, but actually enforces the hostile gender roles and stereotypes Gender Abolition seeks to dismantle.

Rules

Rule 1: No Transphobia, Similar rhetoric or apologia of it.

Transgender, cisgender, and isogender identities are equally valid. Any rhetoric or language targeted against these groups of people will be reported and removed. Additionally any encouragement or apologia towards such rhetoric will be reported, removed and lead to a ban. This community does not tolerate identity based discrimination.

Rule 2: No Racism

We stand with Race Abolitionists, who aim to remove the harmful ideas and institutions of race in the same way we tackle the issue of gender. Racial essentialism and other racist rhetoric will be reported and removed.

Rule 3: Other Bigotry Not tolerated

Colorism, ageism, ableism, classism, and other forms of bigotry or attacks on groups of people will be reported and removed.

Rule 4: Use Precise Wording

Sexual features involve a variety of biological traits. Gender is an abstract idea or label. Sexism is discrimination based on sexual features, while misogyny and misandry are gender based bigotries. Clearly distinguish between these terms, and note when other sources fail to do so.

Rule 5: Tag NSFW content | No pornography

Pornographic content of any kind — including sexually explicit imagery or phrases — is not allowed on this community. Explicit descriptions of sensitive topics, such as hate crimes or suicide, must be tastefully posted with the NSFW tag. Otherwise, sensitive topics may be briefly or lightly discussed without requiring the NSFW tag.

Community Guidelines

Blåhaj Lemmy is a space where everyone should feel able to participate safely, and to that end, our community is built on the guiding philosophies of empathy, inclusion and acceptance.

Empathy

We want our community members to be guided by compassion and empathy for others.

Examples of behaviour that are contrary to this philosophy are personal attacks, insults, doxing etc. If your comment is designed to hurt someone, this isn’t the space for it.

Inclusion and Acceptance

Embracing inclusion and acceptance means listening when people tell you who they are and what their needs are. It means not telling people that you know their experiences better than they do. It means not gatekeeping experiences of identities of others. It means no bigotry such as racism, sexism, anti LGBT commentary, ableism etc. It means doing your best to ensure that you don’t over-talk the voices of folk who don’t share your privileges.

Supporting Blåhaj Lemmy

After much hesitation, we have a Ko Fi to enable people to help with supporting some of the running costs associated with our instances.

Providing a safe space for our community is the goal, so please only consider donating if you are in a position to do so without any financial stress.
