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
You deserve a standing ovation to this comment. We are conditioned to believe women are dramatic, oversensitive liars...but overall we aren't. You've got a very diverse perspective because you know what it's like to be seen as a boy, and also live your life as a woman.
You make an excellent point about being thrown into the deep end when you revealed that you're a woman. We generally get warned by other women gradually as we grow up, and gradually get more experiences as we get more independence. There's a big difference between going to a kids party age 8 to going to a nightclub as a teenager, but usually we gradually build up as we grow. Trans women can be thrown into the lion's den with no training, and left to fend for themselves. I'm really sorry you had those experiences.
