If we want Lemmy to grow, maybe don’t post sexist memes?

Downvote Mexican Weather Woman Yanet Garcia if you don't want to see more pictures of her. That's what the vote system is for.

@BeefPiano
My memes aren't gonna have any impact on Lemmy's growth.

@anders @BeefPiano Just to make it clear: do you suggest that males should ignore feminine beauty? Or even strive for ugly women?
Seems like a very popular future suggestion.

No offense but you might want to take some more time to consider what they've written.

@explodicle What do you mean by writing "no offense"?

Also, "no offense" but you could actually think about what's written, and why.
But I help you in case you cannot process: the definition of "sexist" is pretty flexible it seems, and depends on the agenda of the observer.

I meant it literally, and suggest interpreting sexist literally as well. It doesn't mean only ugly women or whatever. I don't have anything further to add that can't be found on Websters or Wikipedia, have a good day.

@explodicle You are up for banning stereotyping. Good luck for that, see you later and have a nice day.

@explodicle Nope, it was an offense, so you have missed possibly all the points.

Especially the ban part! We're having entirely unconnected conversations here.
