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.

Yes, this is a serious question. I still go on reddit and often see on the r/bigboobsproblem subreddit, women complaining about the attention they receive from their chest.

Granted, I do understand where they're coming from, if you just generally as a person don't want to be oogeled at like a slice of meat, I mean, I get that. That is infact uncomfortable.

I love my chest size, they make me feel feminine and beautiful and I appreciate and enjoy the attention they bring me. Because here's the thing, we're not gunna be young forever, at some point, we'll be older, and not attractive anymore.

With that, I kinda don't understand why some women don't like idk... being beautiful or desired? Like it makes me feel good and boosts my self-esteem.

Anyway, ppl are allowed to feel any way they want. Especially when it comes to their body. I just personally don't get why a person wouldn't want the attention.

Im not talking about harassment here, there's a big difference and clearly there's a line. But any way, what do you think?

Nudie Jeans just phased out all its womens' skinny jeans, and now I'm at a loss for finding non-fast fashion brands that actually fit, so I thought I'd check here.

Some things I'm looking for:

-Has a 34" or 33" inseam -Doesn't fade within a year -Has blue and black options -Not mens' jeans

If you can help a geriatric late-twenties millennial who refuses to get with the times, I'd be really grateful lol.

Forgive the new account, I just moved my account over from lemmy.ca.

I'm working on losing weight right now and needed to rant a little. Currently in the luteal phase of my cycle and all I want to do is eat! What I would give to eat everything in my recently stocked fridge... 😩

On the plus side, I'm down a little over 5 lbs!

Any tips on taking my mind off of food would be greatly appreciated. Feel free to join in on venting.

Currently craving chocolate, breakfast bagel sandwiches, sushi, and the costco sized container of grapes in my fridge... and pancakes with looootttss of syrup.

Thank you for listening!

Women are "the weaker sex". If you're living in a male-dominated world that just coincidentally happens to define "strength" by things that men happen to be good at.

But it turns out there's quite a few important ways in which women are the physically stronger sex…

We're expected to prune and style a lot of our body hair. What do you do?

It's a very personal choice, and alcohol is ingrained into a lot of our society. Do you drink and if so how much?

Is it in the video? Or in the comments?

This video is a hot mess from all angles.

We're taught to be hard on ourselves, and not see the positives in us and our lives. Let's take a moment to look at rhe good. We make great decisions sometimes! What's the best one you ever made?

I have a lot of friends in marriages/ltr and it seems like someone is always compromising on something they originally thought they were looking for. You often hear "not who I was looking for, but who ended up being perfect for me" or similar lines. I'm not encouraging lowering standards, but I think we've all experienced shifting priorities for partners. What are some "musts" that you became flexible on and how did that turn out? What are some "nevers" you became flexible about and how did those turn out? Your experience might not help everyone, but it could provide insight to others.

Some personal examples: Must: like reading I had a long relationship with someone who basically never read anything. I still had friends I could talk to about books, and they spent their time building things. I realized it's a nice plus, but not a necessary part of a relationship for me.

Never: workaholic I had a year long relationship with a workaholic. They tried so hard to back off from work, and I knew I was important to them, but so was their job. I ended things after a year because of this. Still a never again, but I'm taken now so hopefully it won't matter going forward.

Hey all! A male supporter has offered to open a community called WomensStuffSupporters that all genders can reply to. That gives men somewhere to show support that isn't here and also make here easier to moderate.

There's the option to X post from one to another, which is wouldn't want to happen automatically as some people wouldn't like that.

What do you all think of the idea? I'll leave this post up for a while before a decision is made.

Edit: you can message me if you don't want to say publicly. I won't let people know you contacted me, I'd just potentially say someone messaged saying they did/didn't want it

Everyone's idea of emotional intimacy is a little bit different. What does it mean for you?
