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.

I like this philosophy, but in reverse. It's good to be mindful of peoples' wants and needs, and being kind in a way that appeals to their love languages, as opposed to my own, is a wonderful thing to do.

It is a bit stressful for me to think about how if I don't do these things, that I'm intrinisically worthless. I care about myself and bring myself intrinsic value. I like to do things for the people I care about, and I also don't owe people things, if that makes sense. But I do see what you mean, especially after you unpacked it in the third paragraph!

This is the implication of my wording, yes. Live for others and others will live for you and value you.
