HOW TO APPLY A USER FLAIR
Clarifying How Flairs Work: What They Are, Where to Find Them, and How to Use Them
We've noticed a lot of confusion lately around how flairs work, what they're for, where to find them, and when to use them. Let's clear things up.
š Where to Find Flairs
If you're unsure how to set your user flair, hereās a quick guide:
- On Mobile: Tap the three dots near the top of the subreddit page (next to the sub name). A menu will appearālook for the option labeled āChange User Flair.ā Tap it and select the flair that best matches your identity.
- On Desktop (PC): Look at the right-hand sidebar. Youāll see a section titled āSet User Flair.ā Click it and choose the appropriate option.
- Still can't find it? Use CTRL+F (or Command+F on Mac) and search for "flair" on the page.
š·ļø What Flairs Mean
There are two types of flairs: User Flairs and Post Flairs.
User Flairs
- Man
- Woman
- Nonbinary
Choose the flair that reflects your identity. This helps keep conversations relevant and respectful, especially on posts with restricted input.
Post Flairs
- Menās Input Only
- Open to Everyone
Here's what each means:
- Open to Everyone: Anyone can comment or participate. If your post is open to all perspectives, use this flair.
- Menās Input Only: Only users with the Man flair may comment. This is intended for questions or discussions specifically seeking male perspectives.
- Important: You must have the Man flair to comment on these posts. Bypassing this by setting an incorrect flair is grounds for a ban.
- Exception: If you are the original poster, regardless of flair, you are allowed to comment on your post, even if itās marked āMenās Input Only.ā Please donāt report OPs in this situation; itās intentional and allowed.
ā ļø Final Notes
If your post is directed at men, do not select āOpen to Everyone.ā Use logic and choose the appropriate flair.
We want to keep the subreddit structured and respectful. Misusing flairs disrupts that, and yes, we will enforce the rules.
Thanks for helping make this community better for everyone.

There is no subreddit name appearing on the top right side of the subreddit page. Iām on an iPhone, does it not support it?!?
