I am actually a member of the NYC AWDTSG group and I’ve never seen anyone post anything that would be worthy of a defamation suit. This is so funny to me. The group is meant to protect other women from poor behavior and clearly he’s in his feelings because women are probably avoiding him now 🤷🏾‍♀️

like

Me too! The group is so helpful! They even said fantastic things about a guy I posted (girls who worked with or had dated him) so it can help you if you’re doing well and are a decent guy. Because of that, I went out with him even though I was on the fence about whether or not to go out with him, and he really seemed like a great guy. We just didn’t have the same values when it comes to finances and a relationship so we didn’t go forward. But he was absolutely a green flag for the right woman!

And when I’ve seen 1 woman post badly about the guy I wanted to date when I searched his name, I don’t let that convince me from going out with him (she just said he was weird not anything really bad). Yea there’s potential for a jealous ex or someone to post about a guy in there, but that’s why you read multiple comments and posts.

If this man behaved and stopped being creepy, 27 women wouldn’t have posted about him. 27 women! He must’ve really been up to some shady stuff to have that many posting about him. So I’m sure there are a lot more out there because many women don’t even know about the group.

That group is so positive. I’ve never seen anything bad being posted in there. You can’t insult guys’ looks in there either or be unnecessarily cruel when talking about guys or you’ll get banned or suspended. It’s been under attack though. Several of the groups in different cities have been shutting down because men get together and mass report the groups to get them taken down. I think some men (the type who do bad things and get posted about in there on the regular) just don’t want accountability and want to do folks dirty and have 5 girlfriends and a wife at once without people having a heads up before they decide to entertain them.

I support him suing....Far too long some groups of women are allowed to essentially character assassinate and defame men they've dated without real proof.

Idk who is right or wrong, but I support men fighting back. There was a young man who just got falsely accused of giving his ex HIV. She made a whole lie because he broke things off and she admitted it.

I like this hot topic, and I see both sides. Black Twitter had this debate a few weeks ago after a wife showed her husband that his friend was posted in the group. The wife was wrong for showing her husband because the group is supposed to be a safe space for women, and if you’re happily married, why are you in the group?

Anyway… I get why the friend was upset that he was posted in the group. BUT I wish men understood how dangerous it is for women to date. As much as men say I’m not dangerous or don’t want to be generalized with dangerous men, I need men to understand that we don’t know that until we get to know you.

Dating can be dangerous for men, too. You can get set up to be robbed or killed. Per the CDC, Over half of women and almost 1 in 3 men have experienced sexual violence involving physical contact during their lifetimes. 1 in 4 women and about 1 in 26 men have experienced completed or attempted rape.

Let’s not even talk about men with whole families on the dating scene. I’ve had my share of liars. I found this man’s whole wedding ceremony posted to Facebook live after he told me that he’s never been married. Even though I google men before the date, Google isn’t perfect. I’m glad groups like this exist.

Men always telling women to pick better, well this is how we’re picking better

So I have been seeing a guy for 4 months. We have a pay disparity.. he earns less than I do (by quite a bit).

I think we are beginning to move past this, but now he’s starting to mention things like ‘I am really broke this month’, and last weekend he told me his mum has lost her job and he’ll have to probably pay her rent. I have a lot of sympathy for his situation … tbc
