New rule - No gender discussions or comparisons or complaints
We want this subreddit to be a welcome place for everyone. Gender repeatedly comes up in relationship discussions (including the recent divorce threads), but our subreddit is about becoming financially independent and potentially retiring early. Women and men can save money. Women and men can spend money. Be specific about your situation, and leave general gender discussions to other subreddits.
I'm going to try to be as clear as possible so that hopefully everyone isn't confused about what gender discussions and sexism is. Because clearly the line needs to be explained to some of you.
If you cannot discuss your finances without mentioning how gender hurts you, please don't post.
If you cannot discuss your expenses without complaining about a gender, please don't post.
if you cannot provide feedback to someone without mentioning how their gender hurts or harms them, please don't post.
If you say "my wife spends a lot", that's just fine.
If you say "women always spend a lot", don't do that.
If you say "well, you're a man, so marriage sucks for you", don't do that.
If you say "marriage in general is a bad thing", go for it.
If you say "marriage in general is bad, because women..", seriously? Stop it.
Is this clear? I think there are somewhere around 50 thousand other subreddits, I'm quite sure you can find friends there to discuss gender issues. They don't belong here. At all.
