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, the kernel of truth makes it hard for him to see past the narrow way that it's true to see the forest of misogyny he's in - to him, the feminists are the true misogynists

It's like people don't understand what a spectrum is, whether that spectrum is gender, orientation, autism, etc.

He's very religious and might have some rigidity with how he views gender, e.g. he doesn't think trans people are their gender, the assignment of their sex at birth for him is the ultimate truth about their gender. Ironically he will respect a chosen name of a trans person, but won't respect their pronouns, seemingly out of a rigid sense of not wanting to participate in deception, which is how trans people are perceived by him (even if innocently, the way a schizophrenic person is delusional through their mental illness).
