Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.
Rules…
- Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Anyone under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is free to decide whether a women's community is a good fit for them.
- Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
- Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
- No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
- New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.

The number of goofy shit I witnessed and at times was subjected to as well because I'm white, yeah. People acted like all that shit on social media never happened irl, but in very specific circles, it 100% did.
That said, I fully agree with you that things flipped when trump got into office the second time.
I just can't wait for a timeline where it doesn't have to flip-flop between two extremes and we can just coexist. Call me naive, but I do believe that things will eventually even themselves out and we can take the good developments from the 2010s and apply them in a less extreme way moving forward. Whatever positive we will be able to find from this second round of Trump, I hope we can apply that too. Mainly how not to run a country and how not to handle geopolitics.
It will probably take me a few decades before I will forgive America for allowing a president to threaten to annex part og my country's territory as well as intimidating and belittling Zelenskyj on world wide TV.
