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.

MODERATORS
I often browse Lemmy by All, and can end up commenting on a post without realizing which community it's in, let alone actually navigating to the community and checking their rules. I don't think it's a practical rule, and I abide by the community's decision, but I wouldn't personally have a problem with men posting here in general. Might be easier to have specific posts that are women only so it's written right there in the post. I think the only alternative is to create a bot with an automatic reminder on each post.
On the one hand, I am like you and don't have a problem with men posting in general.
On the other hand, I love the way the rule actually creates a sense of a women's community here, even as a lot of men continue to participate. I like feeling like I can assume the person I'm talking to is a woman too.
I get that totally. On the whole people want it to be women only, and the last few days have shown there's sadly a chunk of lemmy men that want to troll and cause issues. If we allow men it'll be hard to stop the trolls and moderation problems will soar. The bots a great idea how do I create it?
Unfortunately, I know absolutely nothing about how bots work.
Haha me neither
