I've been guilty of this in the past. Nowadays I'll reason with them when I think it's possible, otherwise I withdraw. I'm too nice to tell people to fuck off

Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.
Rules…
- Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Anyone under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is free to decide whether a women's community is a good fit for them.
- Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
- Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
- No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
- New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.

when I was younger I'd do this a lot. now I've grown up I've realised that "no" and "go fuck yourself" is a complete sentence. i don't care if i appear abrasive, be nice to me I'll be nice to you but if you're being nasty to me I'll give you a taste of your own medicine 🍵
"NO is a complete sentence" is something we should be taught at birth. That's the hill I'd die on, we need to know this.
Rather you didn't die on hills. But yes, we agree.
As I get older I say this more often. Not enough years left in my life to put up with shit.
AFAICT "this is not a 101 space" is a feminist expression originally.
Good fact I like it
Most of the time, if I’m being honest. When is it better to escalate a situation? Almost never, especially if the other party may do you harm.
“fuck off” and “go fuck yourselves” are a few of my favourite
