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 [email protected] 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.

My (now)-ex.
She stayed by me, through thick and thin, as my ex came close to ruining my life. She begged for me to leave, she even went toe to toe with my ex as violence entered our relationship, so many situations where she had my back, without care for own safety. I just couldnt leave, I still love the person my ex was (and at times, still is - but the alcohol slowly won the war), we have a child together and years of memories, its still hard to completely let go. There was one time too much, one time where I saw in her eyes she couldnt do it anymore, and she walked away. And useless me just watched, crushed those emotions deep inside and went on.
My ex, is my ex, not because I was strong enough to walk away in the end, but because my ex decided they had had enough of me, and blamed me for their alcoholism.
I know our friendship is dead and gone Lisa. But thank you for being there. It helped to not be alone during most of that time.
