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.

The world became a slightly better place when my dad died.

Some people cause joy wherever they go; others, whenever they go.

Ooof what an epitaph

I never realised how 'normal' my family were until I met my bf and his horrendous mother and brothers

It takes a lot of pain for a person to finally go no contact, or be relieved when a family member finally dies

There are far too many shitty parents and siblings out there

I hope you're still having a good day today, because he's not here

Thank you, I am. I have two wonderful (now adult) children and can at least give my dad credit for teaching me what kind of father not to be.

I hear you mate. Ability to reproduce doesn't make someone a good parent and the world is better off without some people. I'm sorry he was like that
