I just visited and the top post this month is http://www.metafilter.com/163757/Emotions-are-Work , which was the most anti-male comments I've been exposed to in a while. The name meta filter implies to me this site wanted to be somewhat neutral and open-ended, but my impression so far is it's become dominated by SJW types, which is going to make it unreadable by me.
If that's one of the most anti-male comments that you've been exposed to in a while, the internet is a safe space for men. It seemed to me more of a rationalization for the behavior of abusive men; that the reason they're abusive is because they haven't been "regulated" enough, not because they're selfish, or stupid, or enjoy hurting people. It seems the kind of excuse that women make to excuse men, and to excuse the…
Maybe a better phrasing is the highest volume of anti-male comments I've seen in a while.

How about the first sentence, "Women are expected to regulate the emotions of men as well as themselves." And the first comment, "Anyhow — men who don’t understand their entire emotional range are prone to anger because they can’t meet their own needs." And the 2nd comment, "I also wonder if that guy wonders if his girlfriends ever had to hire sex workers to manage their emotional needs before they met him." I don't…

I'm not OP, but https://www.reddit.com/r/AskHistorians/ is a good example.
Sadly, it seems it is also the only example. Can you name four or five other subreddits that come close? I always felt like vommiting when I saw people recommend /r/woodworking, but I couldn't figure out why. I was reading an unrelated critique of /r/fitness one day and somebody summed up my feelings about /r/woodworking perfectly "/r/_______ is a bunch of beginners masquerading as experts."

Everybody knows you stay away from the defaults and stay on the smaller subreddits. There are a lot of small, specialized subs that have a great community.
Any examples?
