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.

Covid was bad - one of the earlier delta variants. Somehow managed to catch it outside in the fresh air, was barely functional for about a week.
I once got a horrid stomach bug when at uni, d&v for ages, couldn't keep anything in. I remember watching the entire extended lord of the rings from my bed in some kind of delerium with my flatmate bringing me orange squash every so often.
I've been hospitalised twice. Kidney stone was unbareable pain that no amount of twisting or movement could shift. It passed in A&E when I got fluids via drip and it came out in the toilet. Second time was a gall stone, I was actually scared it was a heart attack or something as it mostly felt like my chest tightening, it wasn't localised like the kidney stone. That got me taken to A&E in an ambulance after 111 called one for me. First time I've ever had proper pain medication in the form of morphine. No idea what happened to it, pain went away gradually and I got sent home with some codeine, an ultrasound later on didn't find it.
