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.

Right now, we actually have a huge issue with psychology language being conflated with emotional intelligence or sensitivity. We really value the ability to identify and communicate our emotions, good, but that isn't necessarily the same thing as willingness to process or manage them. When I run into someone who's really up on terms for neuroses and disorders to the point that they see it everywhere, I can safely assume that they think they have a better handle on themselves than what they do.
"I'm doing the work", "have you done the work" gets under my skin for some reason.
Yes lol exactly, weaponized self-care language.
Omg.... That's what a narcissist would say tho!
Yeah this is a good thing to point out too. People will naturalise any harmful behaviour as a disorder which ends up blurring both that disorder and people's responsibility to address their harmful behaviour.
