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.

Absolutely horrible. The current christchurch mayor turns a blind eye to it too

Thankyou for sharing this. I'm sorry to say none of it surprised me. Misogynistic abuse, violence and stalking has historically been brushed under the carpet, despite it being linked to serious violence. Terrorism, lone actor grievance fuelled violence and some murders have it at the bottom of them... but it's ignored.

Female politicians are at major risk from this type of dangerous man. They're public figureheads and have power over others, which this kind of man hates. The sad thing is if a black person was targeted for their ethnicity, I think it would be recognised more; but women are expected to suffer.
