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.

Oldest in the sense of "owned for the longest amount of time": a pair of jeans I got as a teenager whose pockets are literally rectangles of denim sewn onto the outside of the legs. Not the most stylish, but it was finally a pair of pants that I could actually use the pockets for storing things like phone, wallet, mp3 player without them digging into my hip whenever I take a step.

Started off as everyday wear, then shifted to being "work" clothes (as in manual labor) and horse riding pants once they became tattered enough - especially the heels.

Oldest in terms of "year manufactured": it's a tossup between some of my dad's t shirts from the 80s that I use as pyjamas, and a woolen sweater my grandmother knitted before I was born.

Whoops, didn't see that this was in c/women's stuff. I don't identify as a guy most of the time, but I don't necessarily identify as a woman either and so it doesn't really feel right to comment or post here unless someone explicitly invites me to.

I like to hang out here cause y'all have discussions that I don't really hear or see elsewhere and I also feel like it helps diminish my own blind spots. It's a welcome respite from the "man is default" tone of the rest of the web.

I can delete my root / the parent comment if it bothers anyone, and/or this one as well.
