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 was wearing a sports bra that gave me more of a distinct shape for passing reasons in the beginning. But after more than a year and a half on hormones, I'm starting to have pretty distinct breasts.
I have some women around me that have pretty strong opinions about not wearing bras. And I understand. Sometimes me or the people I know get weird looks in the street because some people can see that we're not wearing bras and there are clothes and... I don't think this should be our problem. It sounds like it's a problem on the people looking at us, not on us. They're just tits, get over it.
That being said, I don't really have that much of a strong opinion about it, and to be completely honest, I'm not really sure what's the point of a bra for me? I feel like they're too small to justify wearing a bra? I'm actually not sure of when I should start, or even if I should start at all...
It's strange, nobody taught me these things. My body is changing and morphing and well, nobody really taught me or prepared me for any of what's happening to me, I'm kind of like left to fend off on my own and I'm relying on my other women's friend, whether they're cis or trans, but some questions I'm a bit too scared of asking. Or ashamed.
On one hand, I feel like it's basic stuff that I should already know that on the other hand... well, it doesn't feel basic at all. :/
