We are a women's only community, so please no male comments.
Edit: thanks all for reporting the hostile remarks! You really are an amazing group of people. Really appreciate how positive so many men have been as well. I see you all and value you ❤️

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 think what we're seeing is different work environments and different subcultures. The experience is not universal between, say, rural vs. inner-city; between left- and right- leaning areas; in different companies. A man might need to "walk on egg-shells" if, say, he's working in a queer arts club in new york, where "walking on egg-shells" might mean e.g. he could get fired for opining that the phrase "toxic masculinity" is sexist. But this won't really resonate with, say, a black woman working at mcdonald's in texas who overhears her male coworkers say racist and sexist shit all the time.
