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. Any woman-identified person under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is welcome.
  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.

Some people see home as somewhere to sleep, other people see it as their castle. Some people love being away, others don't. How much of a home bird are you?

Very much a home bird. Even when I was more social and had a lot of friends, I hated being picked up by someone and then left at their mercy for whenever home time is. I'd prefer to make my own way so that I could silently exit and go home whenever I felt like it. And looking back, if it wasn't for alcohol being involved in the average social event back then, I probably wouldn't have been half as social either. But I very much cherish my own space and my own world.

The exception to this is certain people. Every now and then you meet another someone who doesn't drain your social battery, who you can enjoy comfortable silences with and where you just seem to 'get' each other without needing to put it into so many words. Those people can make home feel like anywhere, no intoxication required. It's been a long time since I've left my home to meet someone like that though lol.

You make a great point about certain people and how they make home feel like anywhere. They're worth an infinite amount
