To be fair and honest - there are a lot of men on the childfree reddit sub. (I've also seen trans people there, fishing for validation .. ugh!)
Parents do get called breeders, and there are terms for children that I'd rather not repeat, so it's not all daisies and roses. But given the subject of conversation, I'm not mad when discussions get heated. I've read your other comment, and for me you really nailed it. If mothers are so happy with their life, why are they so mad the second childfree women talk about their lifes? I've seen other users here argue that even calling ourselves "childfree" is fundamentaly wrong.
I really don't get it. I don't want children and I get shit for it all the time. Why am I not allowed to be annoyed about that? And talk about being annoyed? Why are only mothers allowed to talk about their struggles? Instead I have to listen to constant arguments that I'll regret not having children, when I'm old and dried up(!!!) and becoming a mother is the true meaning of life for every woman. - I'm happy for everyone who feels that way. Enjoy your life and let me enjoy mine. Why is it impossible for mothers and childfree women to co-exist?
This is a community to talk about games, discuss them, and find women to play with. Games include video games, board games, pen and paper, tabletop, and anything of the like. Tell us what you're playing, recommend or critique games, share news and articles about games or stories from your gaming sessions, or form a new group to have adventures with!
If you are looking for other women to play with, please flair your post with "looking for game" or "looking for players". Spoilers should be labelled as such.
A lot of games feature misogynistic content or imagery - discussion of these aspects is encouraged, but please refrain from telling anyone what she can or can't play or enjoy. Console or franchise wars, elitism and debates over "casual" and "serious" games and gamers are not allowed.
While many games feature combat and violence as core aspects, please keep the glorification of violence to in-game only.
Links to any pirated content are not allowed and will be removed.
The sitewide rules and the guidelines are in effect here.

Well that's fair, men are disgusting about everything.
Also you're right, mothers say that type of misogynistic stuff to us all the time but if we mention it we're the misogynists somehow.
