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 only have 2 lip balms; one for next to the bed and the other on my computer desk (where I spend most of my time). I’m weird about lip balms though, if I am remotely sick with anything, the lip balm gets tossed and I get a new one when I’m not sick anymore. Even if it’s barely used, it’s straight into the trash. After a long time of getting strep throat at least twice a year, I’m paranoid about lip balm holding onto bacteria like that.

Not sure if it’s girl math, but if my purse isn’t big enough to hold a book, it’s not worth having. I have exactly one small purse that would still fit a small paperback and one small black purse for fancy dinners, but everything else is big enough for a larger paperback or hardcover book.
