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.

I’m really interested in people’s motivations. Whatever they are, even if just financial.

I mentioned the big things in my post, but to be more specific my list included the following: stable full time job for at least 5 years in my field of study (chemistry), emergency fund to cover at least 1 year, endometriosis surgery, at least one multi international trip with my partner, taking my parents on a trip to Europe to visit their family, beach trip in the Caribbean, experience a music festival, and a few local trips. I had also wanted to go to Japan with some friends but covid ruined those plans.
