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.

Scared, really fucking scared.

From the entire political climate that the world is in today, to my personal life about to take a huge shift.

The current political situation is insane. Rights taken away every month, billionares getting to run around even more freely, and the thing that concerns me the most: People have seemed to forget how changed was made before. People are scared to make meaningful changes to their lives in the name of protest, and they rather continue living inside their little digital world - curated by the same people who are fucking them over - avoiding any conflict and violence.

Sure, mental health is important, your inner peace is important, but at what point that becomes more relevant than the lives of everyone around you? At what point is it enough?

Aaaaand well all of that aside, my personal life is taking a huge toll early next year, and Im also super scared ab that. I'm taking a huge risk, but one that I would kill for getting it right. I'm trying to escape my shitty family, to a compelete different state, so good luck to me I guess, i really need it.

Hey mate I'm sorry you're scared and I get why. Just bear in mind we are politics free here, but people can talk about their emotions about it
