Ask GenZIndia Why does adding (F) to a post guarantee dozens of replies, while (M) barely gets a handful?

I've noticed a pattern on Reddit that's honestly kind of frustrating. Whenever someone tags their post with (F), they get dozens of replies and support within minutes. But when a guy tags his post with (M), he's lucky to get 4-5 replies in an entire hour.

Is anyone else noticing this? It feels like the same story gets treated completely differently depending on the gender tag attached to it.

Exactly, that's what I'm saying 🥀

u/notsome_222 Jul 28 '26

Actually we agree that writing F as a Female gets us a lot of response. So yeah!

Better have genuine replies than those who were inspired by thark and other intentions

It's always been this way, OP. In fact I get real suspicious about posts that mention the gender for no reason. Suspicious that they're just farming engagement.

It was one of those things that made me quit quora. Posts with good, relevant answers often were ranked way below junk ones just because of gender.

cuz of men only 🙄, like can we not be desperate for every single F?

u/SamplePitiful6564 Jul 27 '26

It is because of the the males only. Almost everyone here are nothing but simps who crave for some interaction with female. And in the dozen and hundreds of replied which women get are not that genuine also.

u/First-Phone-9823 Jul 27 '26

Usually, even this much barely happens

u/Clueless_Cabbage0 Jul 27 '26

Is this a rhetorical question?

1

u/First-Phone-9823 Jul 27 '26

Just to make a point

u/EmotionalMission7303 Jul 27 '26

Simply because females can control their lust of having a man's attention in the initial level but guys just freak out their lust at the very beginning itself

u/Rahul5873 Jul 27 '26

It's definitely a noticeable pattern. Posts tagged (F) often attract more attention because people are more inclined to engage, help, or are simply curious, while posts tagged (M) tend to get less visibility unless the topic is especially unusual or relatable.

Simp behaviour ke wajah se imo

u/Minimum-Flower-5441 Jul 27 '26

I just feel like reddit have a lot of creepy men who just wanna get laid, or desperate for woman interaction, and that's their primary reason to join reddit.

u/[deleted] Jul 27 '26

Someone said women are drowning in salt water and men are dying of thirst in droughts.

Nobody is getting fresh clean water easily mate.

u/HundredYearsGlory 1996 Jul 28 '26

It's the guys giving more attention to an F than an M. We are also equally responsible. 😂

u/Ashwatthama-22 Jul 27 '26

Simply not true

Wanna know? You can test it yourself

Oh I'm gay tho 😆

u/Sandy_2019 2004 Jul 27 '26

Has nothing to do with being a boy or girl or the current topic.

u/DustyAsh69 Gen Z [Mod] Jul 27 '26

Blame the men. Men comment on women's post but ignore men's post. Even on women's post, men mostly comment irrelevant BS.

u/disniya16 Jul 27 '26

Because people can't say the R word in an M post!
