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.

Walking on eggshells = not able to say dumb racist shit without getting called out.
Tbh white women are equally as capable of saying racists shit, and work or not
This reminds me of a former colleague. He'd always complain that he can't say anything at work anymore and humor is forbidden. Examples were: Our suppliers don't issue bikini model calenders anymore, even though that was some harmless fun! Also hanging up bikini model calenders is not allowed anymore! It was just some harmless fun. And back then female colleagues didn't complain when you told them to make coffee for you. They are so uncooperative and easily offended nowadays!
"You can't even tell a coworker that you think she's cute any more!"
My brother in Christ, the new intern doesn't need comments on her looks from someone who is (1) higher than she is on the org chart and (2) older than her actual father. Just stop.
If you wouldn't say it to a male coworker, don't say it to any coworker. It's not that hard.

I can assure you in the construction industry they are saying and doing every little thing they want without any consequences bless their hearts
As a white man I find walking on eggshells to have an extreme rejuvenating effect on my skin, making my feet feel soft, refreshed, and ready to take whatever the night has to offer.
Haha thanks enthusiasm! We are trans inclusive women only, so please don't comment again thanks for understanding 😊
walking on eggshells
Translation: considering who you're speaking to when you speak to them.
Even 8 year olds know that you should think before speaking.
I work with a bunch of white men, and I'm definitely the one who has to walk on eggshells.
That's excellently put. Many times I've had to be careful not to say anything feminist/inclusive around certain white men cos it's professionally or even physically dangerous
So they think me demanding that they stop talking about my body in sexual terms is walking on eggshells. Entitled fucks.
This sort of shit is why when my husband offered, I went with stay at home housewife. The pay might be only in love and caring but at least no one feels entitled to my emotional labor or my physical labor or my mind or my body or my sexuality.
Only brown eggs.
If you're a white man who feels like they have to walk on eggshells at work because of that white male identity, you're pretty fragile. I'd hate to see you have to navigate the same social norms that non white males have to. You'd fucking crumble.
Yep, try being a black trans man ffs. They wouldn't last a minute

White men around my job site freely walk around with MAGA hats. The only eggshells I see are beneath those who would talk to them.
*Racist, misogynist asshole white men are walking around on eggshells at work. Fixed it. I never walk around on eggshells at work as a white man. This is a Fox News survey so so I’m sure this is accurate for their viewership.
