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…

  1. 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.
  2. Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
  3. Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
  4. No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
  5. New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.

I would also add the vulnerability of male children to the list of things they never bring up except as a weapon. young boys are often treated by society as if they're just mini adults, to the point where nobody looks twice if their sexually harassed or assaulted. But men never bring this up in an attempt to change it. It's only ever used as an ammo to fling at women and say "actually, we're just as if not more oppressed."
As a trans woman who dealt with that pretransition, that one really stings to me. Nobody cares about helping people like me, we're just a weapon to be used.
