For #1, I even teach my daughter that she doesn't have to have her night-night kisses from me. She's 3. She loves getting kisses from me during the day, but she hasn't wanted a night-night kiss from me in weeks. We tell her aunts, uncles, and grandparents (the only family who really might try to kiss her), that she's allowed to say no. She needs to know she can say no to physical acts from anyone if they are unwelcome, and she can decide they're welcome sometimes and not others, even from the same person. She's very assertive already, and I'm trying to make sure she understands why that helps her. I don't want these Magats, incels, or even overzealous boyfriends making her do anything she's not up for.

That's absolutely excellent. You don't ever have to kiss anyone you don't want to EVER. I love seeing assertive girls!

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.
