Hello there, we got permission from the mod of this community to post about our sibling community here.

We created a sibling community at !transfem@lemmy.blahaj.zone that uses a transfem flag we found.

The community will have a different feel and rules to it to this one, so please check out the rules if any here do join it

Thanks for reading this post :).

i think i would be too anxious about messing up to participate. i have all sorts of internalized bad stuff that i'm working to overcome, but it sounds like a nice place. maybe i'll have my shit together enough some day to join.

To be clear, it isn't bad to find things difficult and adressing it and dealing with it in the community we have created would be okay.

It is more there is a certain way many transfems talk about these experiences like self-deprecating and shaming themselves and by extension others.

So like it's okay to say like "I am struggling with feeling bad because of X, Y and Z" reasons in the community we have created, but not like "I am a " and such, there's a certain feel of self- deprecation and shaming that many in transfem communities seem to like, or yes, struggle with, that we want those joining the community to consider and not expose themselves or others to. It's a difficult balance to strike though and we get that.

We aren't here to punish any, more like try and stop a certain way we have seen transfems communicate their struggles that gives 8d6 psychic damage to themselves and others in the process.

We do understand the value of a place where transfems can and we are therefore glad this place exists for those who need to, or want to, but we have found this place often causes us more dysphoria, and we have been told by some of our friends the same, for a few reasons, even on the more positive posts.

We hope you understand better now and we have not caused you any harm.
