#Trans people DO NOT have to tell you they're trans unless they have #romantic intentions with you..

That means if a straight man ask me out on a date, I'm not obliged to tell them until AFTER the date when l've decided if have romantic interest in them or not.

I’m in a #polyam with two other women, and I don’t date men , but I’ve seen this argument in the last 24 hours mote than I’ve wanted, about when you disclose or not.

"#EishetChayil: Woman of Valor – Heroines of Our History is a commentary on the 22 verses of #Proverbs 31, based on #midrash, the #Talmud, classic #rabbinic texts, and #ChabadHassidut. It is published by #Kehot, the central publishing house of the #Chabad-#Lubavitch movement.

The #book does not merely explain “Eishet Chayil”; it positions it as a sweeping #theological and historical statement about #Jewish #womanhood and Jewish survival. The tone is set early on, with sentences like, “At every critical juncture of our long and challenging history, you will find the fearless and wise eishet chayil shepherding us toward our destiny.”

One of the book’s central claims is clear and consistent: Jewish #history does not merely include #women; it is propelled by them."

It won’t be long before the first signs of my older daughter’s transition into womanhood start to show. Maybe another year or two.
I could end this post right now with “f*cking hell” and that would say everything I actually want to say.

My #Eyes Are Up Here: On the #Hypersexualization of #Women and #Girls.

My journey through #womanhood #initiated with the early #budding of my #breasts. After less than a decade of #childhood – despite fierce #denial – my baby chest was covered with my first #training #bra. I was exposed to how the changing of my #body reflected how I #interacted with #boys.

#Women (#cisgender or not) and #transgender #people are natural #allies.

Stop trying to pit us against each other. #Patriarchy defines #womanhood in #regressive #terms, #punishing those who fall short. #Trans and #cis #women exist in #defiance, many #fighting against it.

"How did someone like you produce a child who thinks so very, very much?" (also me, to my parents)

And that last #scene 👏🏿

#LosingGround is well-written and #acted, with a lot of really great #shots.

The #film covers #issues of #womanhood, #patriarchy, #race, #cultures, and more using serious #adult and #intellectual #dialogue that's still too rare in #Black #cinema.

I strongly recommend this #movie.

Really have to recommend #Roar (#AppleTV). Intense vignettes and I can only watch one at a time, but very illuminating about different aspects of modern #womanhood. Incredible cast. Watch and discuss with your #BFF.

#Sports bans have humiliated trans #women and #girls across America. Now, the #Olympics joins in
“In addition to trans #women #athletes, cisgender #women with conditions known as DSDs – will also be banned from competition. The new rules effectively redefine #womanhood – but not manhood – as a novel and previously unrecognized category consisting only of those with a specific set of genetic prerequisites”
“Rarely has so much fear and anger been directed at so few” https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/apr/21/olympics-trans-policy-ioc

Gwen’s website states that the #colours of the #Lesbian #Flag refer to #gendernonconformity, #independence, #community, unique #relationships to #womanhood, #serenity and #peace, #love, #sex and #femininity.

"One of #HeyAlma’s favorite #Jewish #books of last year was “Hazel Says No” — and no, it’s not just because our site gets name-dropped.

#Author #JessicaBergerGross’ debut #novel follows 18-year-old Hazel Greenberg Blum, a Jewish girl from #Brooklyn finding herself, literally and metaphorically, after her family moves to small-town #Maine. While there, Hazel is forced to turn down the untoward advances of her new principal and deal with blatant #antisemitism, all while trying to get into #college and become a #writer. The #book is authentic to #Jewishness and young #womanhood, proudly defiant and has oh-so-much heart."

When people say they’re protecting women, what they often mean is they’re protecting a very specific idea of womanhood, one that fits neatly within old expectations. But womanhood has never been neat.

I needed a Fairy Godmother ASAP, better yet a big sister. My therapist recommended the latter. In the beginning, I had no idea how to be the woman I shouted to the world that I am. How can one be a woman and not know how to be a woman? But I was!

#LGBTQ #Transgender #Womanhood

Much of my life was shaped by being perceived, raised, and socialized as a boy. The expectations placed on me were different than they would have been had the doctor declared my gender as female at birth.

They have always defined womanhood in terms of fertility, and true womanhood as fertility in support of the dominant paradigm. #women #womanhood #gender
