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'm getting my hair done today! It's so scraggly at the ends I think he'll need to use gardening shears but I can't wait to see it done.

@ZDL@ttrpg.network has been doing some amazing posts on kick ass women through history and I've been gripped by each one. Absolutely GRIPPED.

I've losing access to academic journals soon so I've been bashing topics I'm interested in. I've nearly finished reading the stuff on childhood emotional abuse which has been really interesting

A fresh look always feels great! I've seen those kick ass women posts too, absolutely great stuff. I hope you're able to cram in all the reading you can, or somehow save a copy of what you can't before you lose access to those journals! That is a really great resource to have available.

Whoops, mea culpa, I was under the impression there was a specific magazine for it. Thanks!

I'm so grateful for the kindness of this community. It's so easy to fall into a habit of letting the worst version of ourselves have the reigns, it's so good to be in the company of those whose behavior reminds me to let the better versions of myself do the driving. Thanks again.

Thanks Maeve, that's a really nice thing to say. And you're a valued part of it all 😊
