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.

I agree, but to change that, to make this world more empathetic, we can't just say "well tribalism is real so I will judge you based on the tirbe I think you belong to" we have to both accept that tribalism is real and has a real affect (which in the context of this post can be seen in rape statistics, domestic abuse statistics, etc) and that each human is an individual that has nothing to do with any tribe or statistic until proven otherwise.
If you asked me "who is the more oppressive gender in our society?" I can easily answer "men" but if you ask me "between 1 man and 1 woman, who is more oppressive?" All I can say is "I don't know them"
It’s the goal is to improve things and educate people about choices they can make. It’s depressing that so many are so self unaware and point out the failings of others without seeing themselves in the mirror. Two steps forward and one step back seems to be the way.
