RULES:

I am looking for mods!

1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.

2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)

3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.

4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.

5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.

6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.

People should stop policing others for what bathroom they use and use the right gender/pronouns. (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

It should be your choice what bathroom you use. Even if you "look like a man" but are a woman, you should be able to use the women's bathroom without being attacked. Same goes for men who "look like women", in their words. Also, if a man "looks like a woman" or looks feminine but says his pronouns are he/him and that he's a man, his pronouns are he/him and he's a man.

I feel like I'm preaching to the choir here, but I can't STAND IT. I'm a cis lesbian for crying out loud but at least I'm not like Arielle Scarcella or whatever the hell her name is.

You know what, I get your point with some of these people. I don't think someone should be beaten up, though, for wanting to use the restroom of the gender they identify as instead of the one assigned to them at birth.
