View submission: R/Askmen discusses getting swarmed by women
A less cynical possibility is that it's more of a safe space to ask those kinds of questions to your own gender, and then maybe there's more empathy involved in the exchange of ideas from a certain genders perspective.
It's not new or gender specific for people of the same gender to get together and ask each other questions about the other gender instead of asking the other gender themselves, it's not like in women's hangouts real and online they don't ever ask each other questions about men. There's a bonding to it and a camaraderie that isn't there when asking the other gender themselves, even if the answers obviously aren't going to be as accurate because you aren't asking the other gender directly.

problem is, especially online, it always devolves into "all men are rapists" or "all women are whores" type shit.
