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

Thanks for creating the community.

You might also want to look at !women created by makeitso.

That sub had been created in response to threads that were looking for a community with a more inclusive sounding name that’s not connected with DNA :)

(Full disclosure: I’m not the creator or mod of that sub. I just want to promote it as it (still) has a less recognizable name for folks coming from r/Twox such as myself).

Awesome thanks! I'll be in both :)

Definitely interested in this as well. One thing I miss most about Reddit is how female/lgbt-centric I made my main page.

[–] Springtime@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

You might like !women πŸ™‚

[–] Springtime@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

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. πŸ™‚

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

[–] spaduf@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

[–] jackwebs@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year 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.

[–] spaduf@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year 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.

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.

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

[–] 14specks@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

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

[–] lemmy_be@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

How do you browse communities btw? Asking for a fren obvs πŸ‘€
