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.

Many anti lgbt people are careful with what they say, and don't say or do anything overtly anti. What are some subtle signs?

Remember no politics!

I think it also is a generational thing. I have have had many friends of various sexualities throughout my 4+ decades on this earth. The pronoun thing is just harder to stick in my brain. One of my colleagues is my first acquaintance who uses they/them. I have the utmost respect for them but took me about a year before using their preferred pronoun came naturally to me. Just hard to rewire old neurons sometimes.
