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.

2 things:
In a strict/ traditional household, being made to feel like you constantly have to hide what makes you a woman. Your period products, any contact with boys (even with my relatives and calling to order food I was accused of flirting!), your body parts.
Being constantly denigrated for being into anything a teenage girl would be into. I couldn't play my music in the car without complaints. Actors and singers with a primary teenage girl fanbase would be mocked and ridiculed relentlessly by the media and boys your age. Especially American male "heartthrobs" would ditch you as fans as soon as you lifted them up enough that they no longer needed you. I think this is why teenage girls gravitate to kpop so much. They at least seem to respect teenage girls as a fanbase (and yet are called gay for it, make that make sense).
