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.

lol, I feel the exact opposite and I grew up watching the old movies and tv show. Ghostbusters and TMNT were my childhood loves and still are my adult loves.
Answer the Call was funny, goofy, and kept the spirit of the original. The women may have been neurotic, but they were also strong, competent, and said fuck it to everyone who kept putting them down. I watch it as often as I watch GB1. It’s a great watch for the gym, it pumps me up and makes me laugh.
Afterlife and Frozen Throne were just nostalgia baited, coming of age, cash grabs that were nothing like the originals. After how ATC was dragged down by misogynists, I was very excited for Afterlife, I wanted to love it. I bought it immediately when it was available on iTunes and watched it immediately. The first thing I said when the credits rolled was “What the fuck was that trash?” because it was more like a teenage Goosebumps “horror” than an actual Ghostbusters movie. I hated it so much, I have zero desire to watch Frozen Throne.
