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 was a trans kid who didn't have much of a concept of gender identity until society smacked me in the face with it and essentially made everything revolve around it. I came out as an established adult with a family and career and still lost half my biological family to bigotry, while they cursed me with one hand and blamed me for tearing the family apart.

My heart goes out to the kids who know, feel it in their bones, and have no choice but to watch as their body becomes less comfortable.
