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.

CW, DV

I have a court case pending on Wednesday and will finally be free of abusive family members. Sadly I am the defendant. I understand why the rules are the way they are, but sometimes rules that are meant to help victims are used by abusers to further victimize. I am fighting this to get it off my record.

I am safe in hotels and looking for shelters and couches, and am finding new friends. I started writing a daily positivity journal to combat the trauma loops. I will survive this.

really big sigh

Well, I made a big decision recently. I’ve been thinking on it for the last 10 months and events over the last year kind of solidified my decision. I never thought I’d make this choice, but here I am and it’s going to happen.

It’s going to change a lot of stuff, but I think it’s time. It will take the next 2-3 years to get things ready and move forward with my plan. It’s going to suck but it’s important to me.

Yes, I am keeping this intentionally vague

That's fine mate whatever amount you want to share is the right amount. It's clearly a big change and you're not rushing into it. You know it's the best thing to do and it's a big step forward
