I'm in the safeguarding world, the elderly are horribly mistreated. Care is poorly regulated, and they're mistreated and abused in many ways. It can even result in their death, but is impossible to prove as so many staff are involved. What predators are realising is that if they target a young person, then the young person could get pregnant or credibly disclose at any point in their lives... elderly there's no pregnancy, they've less time to live and may have conditions that make their memory unreliable. It's awful

Well, that's a pretty horrifying thought.

Yes it is. So I totally understand why it was a terrible job for you, you did well doing it.

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…

  1. 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.
  2. Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
  3. Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
  4. No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
  5. New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.
