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.

Unless it reaches a courtroom. Then, if you were wearing a microdress, the jury will more likely than not acquit. Whereas if you were wearing something conservative there's a small, but measurable chance they will convict.
(Just for clarity: the above is a very sarcastic observation about how even if you're "dressed right" juries tend to blame women.)
No such thing as dressed right.
Can't say I would trust an all female jury to not be biased and blame the victim. If the victim's apparel wasn't a factor, they will find another factor.
Ayup. There's a reason why survivors often choose not to press charges.
Get publicly humiliated ... and still don't get justice.
Publicly humiliated, no justice, then the fact that the perpetrator got away is used as "proof" that you are a conniving woman that wanted revenge on a man.
That's true.
It can happen at work too. Sexual relationship then female gets fired. Or female gets sexually harassed and she gets fired for standing up for herself. It is so common.
