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.
- if possible, skip the bra and use pasties or something minimal to hide the nipple
- wear natural fibers like linen (not cotton or synthetics like polyester)
- agreed with others re sunscreen, wear and re-apply, and wear hats and cover up with UV protective clothing if you know you'll be in the sun
- wear less clothing 😉
- bring a change of clothes
- move from air-conditioned place to air-conditioned place and don't dwell in the humid hell between
Viscose is really cool.
I have said this a thousand times, I will say it a thousand more: Scrub pants.
You can find them in different styles, you can find looser or more close fitting. You can even find them with patterns! They're lightweight and breathable while still keeping your legs covered if you want, they handle the wash great, they're flexible with your legs...
It might seem basic, but you can make them look good.
Interesting, I never would have thought of that.
It's gonna be a first for me, but I'm getting a hat for this summer.
no joke was going to ask about tips for this in this comm earlier this morning and chickened out thank you so much for posting this!!!
Glad you find it useful.
anyone got a good hat source?
I wore an umbrella hat to mow the lawn and felt so foolish!
I thrift most of my stuff. I've found good deals at Goodwill, independent thrift stores, and Poshmark.
Ok, so I have hair that is kinda wavy but in a was-attacked-on-subway kind of way. And the heat/humidity makes it way worse. But I recently got some Bed Head salt spray (which I totally misused and flat ironed my hair anyway) and was pleasantly surprised that it kept my hair in good order in the New Orleans heat and humidity. Limited frizz, no reverting back to waves/curls.
gurlll where do you live? the sun? (unless it’s in yank measures)
I live in yanksville, usa.

It's far too hot to put a top over a top. I'm wearing a single layer (currently a bright green a-line linen dress).
