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.

June is pride month! The T often gets forgotten or excluded in the LGBT community. How included do you feel?

I didn't say that groups shouldn't reclaim slurs for themselves. (I mean I use "queer" myself, or when I feel especially spicy I'll use some of the more ugly slurs of "Asians".)

I'm saying that as a non-member I won't use slurs to "reclaim" them. They're not mine to reclaim and the process is fraught with too many chances of hurting people.

Totally! I think we're saying the same things :)

We might indeed be agreeing vociferously! 😆
