Doneosphere
noun | done-o-sphere
The growing collective of predominantly perimenopausal and menopausal women who have spent decades putting up with men's bullshit, carrying the mental load, managing fragile egos, raising children, organising households and providing unpaid emotional labour — only to reach midlife and collectively decide: “I'm done.”
Unlike the manosphere, the Doneosphere isn't about hating the opposite sex. It's about no longer being willing to sacrifice your peace, independence or sanity to accommodate them.
Its members aren't necessarily bitter, lonely or looking for another man. They're often perfectly happy with their friends, careers, children, dogs, wine and the glorious prospect of nobody asking them what's for dinner.
Core philosophy: Men aren't necessarily the enemy. They're just no longer worth the admin.

"Since hitting perimenopause, Stella has officially entered the Doneosphere. She's not looking for a new husband. She's looking forward to never having to explain where the dishwasher tablets are again."
