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.

Most of us have pretended to be ok with something to save a relationship, or just to cope. What's something you pretended to be ok with?

An absolutely disastrous haircut at 19. I wasn't remotely assertive then, so when she made me look like a hamster I pretended to be ok and went home and sobbed.

I've been there. Same reaction. I don't like making a fuss with service staff unless it seems deliberate. But neither do I like short hair; never did. It just makes me look goofy.

Hey I did this at 37 and have been terrified of salons since.
