    There’s also /r/WitchesVsPatriarchy which is also very strictly woman-centered.

      Damn women appropriating witchdom. Excluding boywitches just reaffirms the patriarchy’s gendering of magic. It’s re-inventing the same gender roles.

        Neither the WvP subreddit nor the Discord excludes men from identifying as witches or from participating in discussions.

          Then what does women-centered mean in practice? Is it just a nothing label?

        I’m sorry, what?

        It’s women-centered because it’s “against patriarchy”… not because it’s witchy. And they are trans & queer inclusive as well.

          I think it would be even more against patriarchy if it was enby centered. They should change that.
