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.

I've got a good instinct with good and bad people. It's not infallible but I often pick up on things that show who they really are. There was a woman at work a few years ago that everyone thought was the nicest woman ever but I knew she wasn't... sure enough she started bullying people.
I can also read peoples behaviour pretty well, so spotting when someone is pretending to be ok, or when something is going on behind the scenes. You don't go off words you go off behaviour and it tells me a lot.
I have this too! I was never wrong when somebody looked like an ok person, but I just did not like them. I can read a lot from people’s non verbal communication. And I see a lot of things before them being officially revealed. I learned to trust my instinct.
100% I'm a passionate believer in women's strongest power being their gut instinct. We tend to shut it down but IME it's usually right
