The religion section is just a war zone... a lot of them don't like Christians (in my opinion, that is).

In the "family" section, some of the answers can not only be toxic, but biased towards the younger age group. For example, I saw this teenager talk about how his/her parents wouldn't support his/her dreams of making it into the film industry. A lot of them convinced the teenager to give up and listen to his/her parents, while the other answers that convinced the teenager to wait to pursue the dream by him/herself was ultimately thumbed down (or not even given a thumbs up).

Don't get me started about the gender section. It's full of man/woman haters who are obviously bitter. Sometimes good questions would be asked and then there would be woman/man bashing answers.

I only gave this website two stars because I'm hella generous and it can be helpful when you get answers from the right people.

While this website can be enjoying at times, the negativity of the users can be just off-putting. It's contagious and their negative attitude will infect you if you let their comments get to you.

I realized the hard way that LSA was not only anti-Greek, but anti black men, anti light skin, anti trans. Essentially anti everything. It's too much of a headache to deal with.

They LOVE to revel in negativity regarding some topics & any thing that's positive and uplifting about something they don't like would be ignored/groaned/viewed skeptically. They also act as though every certain groups of people are all out to get/hurt them.

I will put some blame on myself because I knew how negative they were, but I guess the reason I stayed so long was because despite the negativity, not all of the members were bad and out to get everyone. Some parts of the website are enjoyable, but the negativity is horrible.

The only reason I'm rating this website two stars instead of one is because I will admit that some of their comments about men aren't without merit. They are correct about how black men do bully and put down women they think are unattractive, while treating white/latina women as if they are queen of the world and are superior to black women.

Like a lot of people said, if the website were to be shut down, I wouldn't lose sleep because it's too damn toxic and the mods are just as bad and they are incompetent. They only selectively take action, which is unfair and biased.
