Community for trans and non-binary folk to band together and break free from the oppressive shackles of cis-heteronormative capitalism. Or shitpost and converse with each other. Just stay comfy, y'all. :)

Asking trans and non-binary related questions is highly encouraged by our community, but please direct all questions to c/askchapo. <3

MODERATORS
 

We are committed to providing a friendly, safe and welcoming environment for all, regardless of gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability, personal appearance, body size, race, ethnicity, age, religion, nationality, or other similar characteristic.

We will exclude you from interaction if you insult, demean or harass anyone. That is not welcome behavior. In particular, we don’t tolerate behavior that excludes people in socially marginalized groups.

This 'struggle session' has cut open a sore of cisnormativity which allows plausible deniability of transphobic action and thought. It's senseless and insensitive to push back against what should be a non-issue. Cis and trans alike, set your pronouns so as to normalize an aspect of trans inclusion that goes some way to dispel cishet patriarchal norms assumed default by almost every space, especially online.

There is no excuse (that hasn't been considered and discussed and where applicable, taken on board) to push back against this as we as a community have. We can (and should) do better.

Its not a BIG problem but its VERY noticeable when theres a terf stirring shit. It only takes one or two in a thread to ruin everyones mood. We will probably have a context thread or whatever to make it clear what went down for those who aint terminally online. If nobody does it soon I'll make sure and do it myself :)
