We're reopening the community so that there's a space on Hexbear dedicated to discussing feminist issues. However, that does not mean c/womenby will now be exclusively for that. Feel free to use it as you would have before its closure. aubrey-happy

You can discuss in this thread what you'd like to see out of the comm as well as any potential changes you'd want.

feminist issues

Which, unfortunately, there are lots of, and I'm not just talking about misogynistic oppression from the patriarchy, but also how some "feminists" try to carry this movement with no sense of theory and intersectionality, which leads them to promote liberal, bourgeois, essentialist, racist, and imperialist ideals in the name of "girl power"

I hope c/womenby can be one of the few online feminist spaces exempt from such bullshit

Weird question but what goes in this comm? Should it be considered a theory comm, or?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

It's a community for all women and non-binary people. Feminist theory, women's issues, reproductive topics, discussion of how you relate to your gender, even just casual conversation among this demographic are all acceptable to post. There's a lot of potential overlap with other comms, so feel free to cross-post too if you want.
