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.

I'm a big talker, so I have to talk about it if its bothering me. I have colleagues I use as sounding boards who are really supportive and talk me down when my stress is big.

I used to have a manager who was awful so my best mate knew if she got a text of a load of swear words then it was about him.

I do all my batch cooking, ironing etc before the week starts so the evenings are clear. I start a wind down time around 7 till 8 so that I don't look at screens or see the time, and clear my mind before bed.

Overall I manage!
