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.

Obligatory not a finance person.

I meant it more like "not the best." In that it's clunky, energy intense, and widely unregulated. As far as I know, there are no better solutions which aren't theoretical.

edit: But I guess there are plenty of small ways we trade value outside of a centralized currency. It's just hard to put "great person who helps their friends move" on a credit report. But that's less about currency and more about value as a concept.
