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.

Rule 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.

This is in the interest of avoiding something that happens all the time with women only spaces on the internet and that is being overtaken by men.

This is especially a problem when we discuss our feelings towards men, especially if they are negative, because the discussion will inevitably and very quickly derail to men in the comments being offended and women having to temper their emotions, instead of actually talking about their own feelings on the matter.

It is sadly necessary as this problem is something that has basically killed most women spaces on the Threadiverse.

Alright. Sorry for replying to a few things.

We've been blessed that most men are like you, accidentally comment and then respectfully apologise and leave when they realise they shouldn't. Thanks so much ❤️

no need to feel bad, it happens all the time - thank you for paying attention and being respectful 💖

Thanks for accepting transwomen. I am transfem and I get excluded from women's spaces sometimes
