Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

It's a pretty fitting name for a social media app
Feel like the issue is giggling being seen as feminine and thus childish and infantalising is the attitude that's sexist rather than the actual connotation of giggling with women being sexist
I don’t see giggling as feminine and thus childish, I see giggling as childish full stop, no connection to femininity, which is why I think it’s weird that they conflate women and giggling
Like I even feel weird reading your comment because it basically reads to me as: Feel like the issue is dinosaur chicken nuggets being seen as feminine and thus childish and infantalising is the attitude that's sexist rather than the actual connotation of dinosaur chicken nuggets with women being sexist.
Like nah the part I’m questioning is definitely the connection of dinosaur chicken nuggets to women.
Why is laughing childish. Maybe I don't fully understand what "giggling" is exactly
