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.

You tried to kill yourself ffs go talk to an adult that isn't your dad. You need therapy.
You might have been better off with music instead of marketing.
Your father will never stop being an asshole. He doesn’t deserve the tears you shed for him. You will be in a near fatal incident and, no matter how much his siblings plead with him, he won’t call you. He will die a painful, lingering death and he won’t tell you. He’s worthless and you should put your emotions into bettering yourself. He will continue his bullshit until you are in your 40s even when you haven’t spoken to him in over 20 years. Don’t cry over sorry trash like him. You deserve and will have better people in your life.
I’ve also been telling myself this since yesterday 🙃
You're GAY
You are a woman start HRT as soon as possible.
same ^
I was already depressed and fairly dysphoric by 16, that was also the age when I first heard about eunuchs and dreamed of being a eunuch and being accepted in society as a woman. Can't believe it took decades for me to figure it out, imagine the harm that could have been avoided if I had known and acted sooner ...
That I was always the woman I see today and to not be afraid of her.
I love this one ❤️
That is difficult. Usually I find kids and teens are very unwilling to listen to advice :P
Go get diagnosed with ADHD please! Go do that now! While you are still in school! Also, you are transgender so please go read about what that means please! Also look up "DIY HRT". Don't trust the doctors with your gender :(
Don’t get married just because “it’s the next step” and “well I guess we’ve been together long enough🤷🏼♀️”! We divorced a year later. Stupid kids we were🤦🏻♀️
It’s going to be okay.
You are going to get through this.
Don’t give up.
These are so supportive, I really like your compassion for your younger self
Oops. Didn’t realize this was women-only. Didn’t mean to intrude.
I’ll see myself out.
Ah np at all thanks for being so considerate ❤️
Fuck what these clowns say or think of you. Enjoy this period in your life as much as you can. You will likely never experience the rush of freedom and possibility like you are right now.
Get therapy.
Everything you've been told about yourself is a lie.
Or alternatively you look great, your personality is great, you just are great.
Stop smoking now, you fucking idiot!
hi Richard! Thanks for your comment.

Hope you understand, and thank you 💙
I can't think of any advice I could give that I would have listened to at that age.
Now, if I could give my 16 year old self a few books ...
Learn to say no and to advocate for yourself.
Say yes to Rebecca

No, don't take the math way, go for humanities. But first get diagnosed for ADHD and ask the doctor about BPD and autism, because, you know? You have a pretty mix. Also, take your parents offer and start a new life in another school, maybe you might find friends there because here are none and won't be in the next years. Also, that idea of making games? First the diagnosis, and start creating ttrpg, all other stuff can be learned in internet, taking an engineering career is not the way. Take your meds, go to DBT, go to the psychologist, go to TO, and try to enjoy a.new life to be prepared to a world that will go to hell. And let your parents know that your struggling, that you are still under bullying, that the suicide of your best friends broke the hell of you, and that you need a lot of help...
Start investing in stock even though you can only afford a little bit now.
