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.

When talking "Internet left" and "Internet intersectionality" you're pretty much talking "American left/intersectionality". I've given up on even trying to point out that the rest of the world exists, because even the "intersectional" American so-called left either denies the existence of Toms and Dees, say, or tries to cram them into their own paradigm of "butch" and "lipstick". Non-Americans just have to try to find the underlying concept and ignore the examples provided.

yeah, the cultural hegemony is real, and it's made worse by the way the U.S. has had such cultural influence on the rest of the world ... it makes it seem for the American that the whole world is like the U.S.
