I’m considering closing and redirecting !askmen@lemmy.ca and !askwomen@lemmy.ca. They haven’t seen much activity in months/years. Usually, people just post in the ask/asklemmy communities and indicate which group of people they want answers from.

Here is a draft for the pinned post so far:

There currently isn’t a one to one match for the topic of this community. If you want answers from a specific group (ex. men/women), you could instead start your question with a phrase like “A question for men:”. Here are some alternative communities:

“Ask” communities (for starting a discussion):

For questions that are more specific to your situation:

Group specific communities:

Broader in topic (not necessarily questions):

If you would like to take over this community, please reach out to @admin@lemmy.ca

Do you have any thoughts? Are there other communities that should be included in the list?

    ooh… that makes sense. I will lock it down, but where should i direct them to? There was a stupid question community in lemmee i think, but now that is no more, so not sure what should be the best option. maybe normal ask communities, but they do not feel right.
