##Description

Niceguys demean others while simultaneously expressing a favorable view of themselves.

This is a lighthearted subreddit for funny, cringey images, NOT a subreddit for showcasing general acts of misogyny or for debating gender roles.

Please be sure to understand the concept of Virtue Claim as explained in Rules 1 & 2 as it is a core requirement for posts in the sub.

##Rules

####1. All posts must include a virtue-claim by the niceguy

Niceguys® demean others while simultaneously expressing a favorable view of themselves. They don't have to use the word "nice", but they must demonstrate an expression of their own virtue/value/worthiness/etc. while being asshats.

Examples of virtue-claims:

me protekt u
me god-fearing man
me treat u like beautiful princess
me hate misogynists. so.... send nude pic?
me give you [insert unsolicited sex prowess boast]
me make much money
u ignore my nice compliment ... kys
u dont like honest man!
u wont ever get a guy like me
u dont appreciate [virtue] men

Posts without a virtue claim are off-topic for this sub and will be removed. The only exception to this rule are Memes on Sundays.

####2. Post title format

NGVC: "Virtue Claim in quotation marks"

Memes (Sundays only) are the only exception and must be flaired

(NGVC=Niceguy Virtue Claim)

####3. ALL usernames, names, subreddit names and human faces must be removed from all posts

By names, usernames and faces we mean ALL names, usernames and faces and yes this includes your own, and it also includes business names.

This rule also covers linking to other subs or users in posts or comments. Please dont do it.

Doxxing, witch hunts or "Reddit drama-instigation" will lead to an instant ban.

####4. Dont put OP on trial. (No victim-blaming)

Niceguys 100% are responsible for their own toxic behaviour. Dont blame OP.

Examples:

“why not block them?”
“what did you expect engaging them?”
"this is so fake!"

####5. No Slut-Shaming Sexuality between humans does not entitle any party in that equation to act like an abusive shitheel or an obsessive creep.

Don't use this subreddit to try and cast shame on people for their sexual activity, interests or preferences.

####6. All posts must be in English A translation must be provided if the text is not in English.

####7. Memes/Comics are only allowed on Sundays (UTC time)

Time zone used will be the UTC time.
Memes are the only posts that do not require a virtue-claim (see Rules 1 & 2).
Memes must be flaired as memes.
We will also (usually) accept related material that doesn't fit the stricter requirements if submitted during Meme day with the Meme flair

####8. No recent reposts

####9. No videos

####10. All posts must abide by sitewide rules
