WELCOME TO THE NEW YEAR, YOU SMOOTH-BRAINED NEANDERTHALS! IT'S 2024, AND WE'RE GONNA TRY SOMETHING NEW. READ HERE BEFORE YOU TRY POSTING FOR THE FIRST TIME!

Happy New Year, you degenerate fucks. Alright, lets get into it.

For fuck's sake, what is so goddamned hard about following basic rules? The amount of people who have complained as a first time poster "I think my post was fine! Approve it!" and then fly into a temper tantrum when we say no is getting out of fucking hand

So lets cover the basics - even though I know you fuckers aren't going to read it

1 - THE ACTUAL QUESTION HAS TO BE IN THE TITLE - You can expland it below, you can put in details below, you can do what you want, but the ACTUAL QUESTION has to be the title or we will fucking reject it.

2 - YES/NO, DOES ANYONE ELSE, EITHER/OR QUESTIONS ARE NOT ALLOWED - Holy Fucking Shit! Is this such a hard thing to understand or comprehend? The amount of first time posters that try to say "Well I know it's a yes/no but it really isn't because of the 15 paragraphs of bullshit i put in the body.". Look - if the base question breaks the rules, it's not going up.It's that fucking simple

3 - DON'T ASK US WHY YOUR BOYFRIEND/HUSBAND/MALE CO-WORKER DOES A SPECIFIC THING/DOESN'T DO A SPECIFIC THING/ACTS A CERTAIN WAY - Holy Fucking Shit! How the fuck are the people here going to know WTF he is thinking? We're not him. Here's an idea - maybe ask him?

4 - OVERLY SEXUAL QUESTIONS ARE A NO-GO, WE WILL BAN YOU FOR THEM - This is not a sex sub. This is not the penthouse letter pages. And just because this is r/askmen it does not mean this is the place to come ask us on the best advice for blowjobs. It's like,, y'all get on the internet, see it's a men's based discussion sub, and wonder. "Other than face-fucking, when my abusive co-worker is balls deep in my ass in the walk-in cooler at our Wendy's what's the best way to convince him that I want him to be kinkier?"

EDIT - Apparently some people thought we were joking. 28 day bans have begun.

5 - THERE IS A KARMA REQUIREMENT FOR R/ASKMEN - 10 POST KARMA TO POST, 5 COMMENT KARMA TO COMMENT, THROWAWAYS ARE NOT ALLOWED - This is not a hard concept! You're new to Reddit! You want to participate! Great. Figure it out somewhere else without standards. It only takes a few minutes fucking around in a dozen of the front page shit-post sewer-subs to get some karma. Also - if you have the word "Throwaway" in your username, and your post gets deleted,don't be surprised because you did this to yourself. Also, we don't care, and we don't make exceptions. Ever.

We, the moderation team hope this little clarification of the rules, makes your lives easier and as well as our stress levels. We also know you dumbfucks won't read this, but well...we tried.

Why are some people are constantly trying to make you (or other men) seem like a creep/perv/pedo?

I see it a lot, but one example I can think of was in a group setting and someone asked who everyone’s first celebrity crush was. I said I’d had a crush on Lindsay Lohan from the Parent Trap up through Mean Girls. Someone tried to imply I was some kind of pedo because Lindsay Lohan was a child in The Parent Trap. For the record, I am younger than Lindsay Lohan, always have been, and was younger than she was in the movie when I first saw it. Obviously a ridiculous claim, but someone was so eager to make me look like a creep. I imagine I’m not the only one who experiences this.
