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.

Honestly, women don't owe anyone to be polite at all, let them do as they want.
Of course they fucking do. Everyone should be polite by default. If someone misbehaves, they lose the right to receive politeness.
Why? You don't know their life, why do you get to decide how they should act and to whom?
You are ofc welcome to choose that approach for yourself, as mostly do I. But telling anyone what to do, especially on the flimsy base of gender, seems callous.
I don't know and don't care about their life, and it is not gender specific. All humans that are part of a society should be polite by default. What I am saying is that I don't see the reason that women should be exempt.
