> A rule I’ve learnt recently and really loved is - every community can be judged quickly by how comfortable women are in it.
I've thought about this rule for many years. It applies equally well to offline real-world communities.

Bring your average woman to a Richard Stallman meet-up and then to a UFC match and ask her which setting she found most uncomfortable. I can guarantee you that Richard picking his own nose in a room full of sweaty needs will be more disturbing to her than being close to thousands of jacked-up men cheering while two combatants almost kill each other.
But, also, I have faith that most women have a very good intuition about which strange awkward men are harmless and which are not. If you're not a women or haven't talked to many of them about this, it's hard to really internalize how profoundly important it is for women to be able to make those calls correctly many many times throughout their lives.
Lots of women will feel uncomfortable at a UFC fight. We're talking about communities, not some random event.
You just sound too red pilled to understand so.
