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.

Choosing the right university and major. I didn't want to leave my best friends from high school and have to meet new people, so I just applied to the same school they did. I really wanted to double major in creative writing and journalism, but I ended up majoring in literature because it was the closet thing available. I had to do an extra journalism intership and pay for an online certificate program out of pocket to cover my knowledge gap, and I sort of felt like I was simultaneously overworked and wasting my time in college.
But, like, I wouldn't have fallen out of contact with my best friends. It would have all worked out, and I might have made new friends along the way too.
