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.

MODERATORS
I generally support most of the things posted here. This one gave me an ick feeling, though.
Yes, there's loads and loads of evidence for the unbalanced emotional labor placed on women and I've seen it and I've been there and I hate it.
While the headline tempers the screenshot, it still says "men, unironically," and that's the part I feel is more divisive. Even though part of me agrees, a part that wants to scream "Fuck yes, sister!" I gotta be like nah, not this one.
This post is particularly narcissism coded. People with that personality disorder are accurately described by this post.
Framing half the population as having a personality disorder is not a good way to start a conversation, and distracts from real issues.
Unbalanced emotional labor is a real problem. Narcissists are a threat. These two ideas are not related.
That's honestly a great point. It's for sure about narcissism.
Definitely #NotAllMen but definitely #EnoughMenActually that this needs to be heard.
