It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

I somewhat relate to this from a bit of a different angle.
I'm pansexual, so truthfully, I don't actually care what my partner's gender is itself, but I have a lot of standards which are not inherently related to gender per se. Far more women meet these standards than men, so in a sense, it makes me de-facto exclusively into women.
To give some examples, I'd love a partner who is vegan, has long hair, and doesn't have toxic masculinity. A man has the capacity to have all of these traits obviously, but if you think on the chances, I guess that narrows down the gender of my dating pool to be overwhelmingly women.
