You can't really believe Facebook just deletes people to "censor women", can you?
Me
This is the real problem with things like discrimination and psychological violence. It is based on real ignorance. And, the real problem with ignorance is that when people are ignorant, they are generally unaware of it, which makes it a difficult problem to solve. Shedding light on the situation, such as people like me are doing is one way of initiating the thought, that there is in fact a problem which needs to be solved.

I think you are over-analyzing it though. People get deleted for bad reasons (or no reason?) all the time. ESPECIALLY groups or pages. All it takes is to get reported by a number of people. It is not censorship on women. In other words, I don't think there is light to be shed on the situation here.

I don't you can over analyze something which effects half the world's population. It is important to address every aspect of what affects the lives and human rights of so many people. Gender discrimination has real affects.
Yes, you are right about the fact that discrimination does not just censor women. It can target others too, including all those who bump the status quo.
