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.

Yeah, people disagreeing with the OP aren't doing so out of a consistent commitment to feminism, they're largely doing it out of orientalism.
Lots of women wear Hijab's for reasons not overtly enforced by men. Lots of Muslim women don't wear them. Lots of Muslim women who choose to wear hijabs put an awful lot of effort into styling them in ways that make them feel good. Lots of non-Muslim middle easterners wear them because that's a part of the world with lots of sand, and getting that shit in your hair sucks.
Believe it or not, an entire religion and part of the world isn't as simple as images of ISIS ghouls killing women for not wearing a Niqab.
