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.

At what age would you have that talk with your daughter so she's not surprised by street harassment and treatment by men around her body? And any comments or insights on how would be good too.

UPDATE
Thanks everyone for your comments and insights. I had a little chat with her before she went out today. I used some of your words like "if someone makes you feel unsafe then they are not safe to be around". I advised her to ignore and move on and if necessary seek the safety of the nearest woman, they are just likely to understand if you say you don't feel safe even if you don't know why.

Really appreciate you all here, thanks for helping.

Not at all. It's an updated stranger danger lesson.
