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.

I wish I could remember (panel 2 lol) but there was a fairly comprehensive analysis of literary tropes in European folklore that put forth that the reason the "hag" was demonized is that it is a woman who is unable to provide the patriarchal definition of worth: childbirth, domestic duties, sex. To the same degree as younger women and is also a source of advice/wisdom that could fly in the face of said patriarchal definitions.
To answer the question though, literally me.
Yep! The only thing that's off for me is that I don't like gardening
Same here!
I'll happily do the veg growing if someone else does the cookery :D
