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.

So if I perceive that every human that gets within 2 ft of me is attempting to murder me, it's their fault?
How is "I think you are hot" objectifying when "hot" is a descriptor of a human beings qualities? You got call a house hot. Or a train. I suppose there is hot rod but I am pretty sure that came from a different definition of hot and not attraction.
I just don't understand how you could perceive it as objectifying by default.
I’m going to respectfully stop this conversation here. Not because I can’t explain how men can objectify women and why women can pick up on when men want to fuck us vs befriending us, but because it won’t be productive and this isn’t the community to do so.
Please read the rules and respect this space.
I'd like you to take a look at rule #1 of this group and ask yourself: "Am I supposed to be commenting here?"
I'm not making the accusation. Yet. But I'm asking the question.
because hot means "youre really attractive when I look at you" here. You dont know what they like, they dont know their hobbys, their style of humor, only what they look like. That is the difference.
If you said, "you know I find you to be really hot when your wit is so quick" its different.
Ive told my husband, "Youre so hot when youre getting excited over basketball cards" cuz, he is, im not objectifying him. His personality is what makes him hot, not his giant cock.
Also, telling someone youve known as a person for a time, like talked to them before, know them already a bit, hot is less off putting and random, than a person you just met. A person you just met the only thing you can call them hot for is how they look. Thats objectifying.
