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…

  1. 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.
  2. Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
  3. Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
  4. No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
  5. New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.

Death is inevitable. When you're young this falls on deaf ears and you do stupid things that bring that death closer either statistically or in terms of life expectancy. As you get older you get wiser in this regard, understanding that death will come and that you have only one life to live.

Which means as a corollary that the older you get, the more you value the shrinking amount of time you have left.

The worst part is we are the least equipped to live healthily when it's most important :P It's so easy to do something dumb, warned or not, when a teen. Like using headphones too much at too high a volume etc

Hey, uh, "Deaf ears" is ableist. Perhaps consider "uncaring ears" instead.
