Something akin to /r/twoxchromosomes.

EDIT: Best I've seen so far is !feminism@beehaw.org

There are a couple lesbian communities. I havent seen anything like 2x or thegirlsurvivalguide yet though. None show up in the community browser either. Someone should start one.

Browsing the communities here, I found Witches, and twoxchromosome. twox doesn't have anything yet, but Witches has a few posts.

I'd love to see a twox or trollx sub. I'm on an ecologically themed instance though so idk that I should make that there or not.

Edit: Screw it, I made it https://slrpnk.net/c/twoxchromosomes

Yes there is:

!women

The consensus of previous similar threads looking for something akin to r/Twoxchromosomes was to move away from DNA related names to sound more inclusive and welcoming transgender and non-binary folks. ๐Ÿ™‚

There's !feminism@beehaw.org which will probably act as a hub for the time being

[โ€“] iie@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

beehaw has defederated from 352 other lemmy instances, including two of the largest - lemmy.world and sh.itjust.works. I would be cautious about settling in there.

[โ€“] CodingAndCoffee@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Yeah. It's quite disappointing but not entirely unexpected

Not super active but a space exists and can be made into what you want https://lemmy.ml/c/twoxchromosomes

[โ€“] 14specks@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

True, but isn't it a great opportunity to rename the women's interest comm as something that's not trans-exclusive?

[โ€“] Springtime@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Yes, that was the sentiment of previous threads around this as well.

makeitso has created !women to be and sound more inclusive.

Not seen any on Lemmy/Fediverse but you could check out ovarit.com

[โ€“] spaduf@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Unfortunately front page is primarily made up of a transphobic/antiqueer sub right now.

[โ€“] jackwebs@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'd second the suggestion to create something on Lemmy, then. It's supposedly easy enough to create your own community on here.

[โ€“] spaduf@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I think I'm pretty comfortable pointing people to !feminism@beehaw.org right now. Probably for the best for it to be on one of the more popular instances.
