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 used to work in one, and it wasn't good. It was very macho, very dog eat dog, and women got targeted for bullying. Women were often the butt of "jokes" and were publicly humiliated for making mistakes. Tbf a lot of it was the organisation had a toxic, bullying culture.
A lot of men would openly make nasty remarks about "moaning feminists" and how "men's rights are being destroyed by moaning women".
On the plus side, lots of men really hated it. There were many that were fiercely protective of women and hated to see them mistreated. And like I said a lot of it was the inherent nastiness of that organisation
A lot of those mens also probably binge on pickup artists, Joe Rogan content. I know 2 people that do that
Oh crikey what were they like?
