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.

"Human nature" always fucking means that.
Every time, 100%, no exceptions, I hear someone spout off about what is or is not a "human universal" it takes me less than ten minutes' work to find counterexamples.
Red is not the colour of aggression and anger universally, for example. The "natural" counting system is not base 10. (Note: counting, not numerical representation: that's even more complicated!) Women are not universally the "nurturers" while the men are the "breadwinners/hunters/whatever". Basically ever "human universal" ever named is wrong.
