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.

I used to get along better with men when being a mom because my interests and those of my kid included a lot of men stuff. I was also living as a foreigner in a country with a lot of rather conservative expectations towards women and especially mothers and I didn't really fit in. I've never been interested in 'typical' women's topics with the only exception being textile art. Now I'm approaching menopause, kid is grown up, and I start identifying with the role of (extremely radical) grandmother. I seem to be meeting a lot of older women lately who try to be of service, work towards community and towards reconnecting with the natural world, and many are also some sort of witches and healers - so basically a congregation of crazy cat ladies. That makes for a lot of interesting stuff to talk about, I am really enjoying it - even the part where most guys and some younger women seem to think I've lost my marbles!
