Do I have to be a woman to participate in this community?

No. Any user who can follow the rules is welcome here. Women, men, nonbinary, agender, genderqueer, cis folks and trans folks, everybody. If you're not on board with that, you can fuck right off.

But what about the subreddit name?

Read this post from when (The Reddit) 2XC was only a month old. We (They and now us) haven't changed our stance since then, and never will.

What about trans women?

Trans women are women. TERFS can fuck right off.

What are the rules, anyway?

We're currently using the Reddit twox rules you can find them below.

TL;DR: Keep it civil, keep it relevant. Don't start shit, won't be shit.

It's painfully obvious that the Lemmy population is primarily men.

Frustrating.

edit: to save my sanity, I choose believe that the majority of comments here are trolling. Y'all cannot genuinely be this dense.

I wanted to talk with other women about this to get more clarity and it turns into..this. Damn.

Hey, its nice that you make it explixitly that trans woman are women and the posts also seem trans friendly. Still, the name "twoxchromosomes" makes me feel uncomfortable, because the name is kinda trans exclusionary. Also you include trans men and nonbinary people in the community with this name, which would be assome, but they are no women, and then saying "all women included" but include them with said title feels weird. I understand the reasoning that you wanted to attract people from reddit, but now that you already have a lot of subscribers, would you mind changing the name to something more inclusive/broad? (Again, "womans" spaces exclude Nonbinary People, some of whom are read as women by society and many face similar issues as women, like negativity towards feminit and/or being able to get pregnant and/or others.)

In the communities of Chiapas, as well as in the rest of Mexico, structural violence leaves women in a subordinate role in practically all areas of public and private life, also violating girls' access to the full exercise of their freedom and autonomy. Indigenous women suffer from the triad of oppression and violence - gender, race and social class.

The Fray Bartolomé de Las Casas Human Rights Center (Frayba) walks alongside and hand in hand with strong women who fight and seek access to justice, autonomy and a life free of violence.

What does Frayba do?

Frayba accompanies and strengthens individuals, families, groups, organizations, communities and peoples who walk the horizon of their autonomy and self-determination.

What do we do with your donation?

When you decide to support us on a monthly basis, you contribute to us continuing to accompany women and their strengthening processes, in addition to carrying out national and international advocacy actions that make visible the violence they suffer in our country and in the communities in Chiapas.

Why do we need to join forces?

Faced with the context of generalized violence - which manifests itself in threats, torture, forced displacement, femicides, etc. - and consequently impunity, the most vulnerable continue to be women, children and adolescents.

The Executive Secretariat of the Public Security System (SESNSP) announced in its report "Violence Against Women, Criminal Incidence and 9-1-1 Emergency Calls" that from January to December 2022 it recorded 2,807 murdered women, This figure a total of 968 Mexican women were victims of feminicide.

In 2019, Mexico ranked first in feminicide out of 24 countries, reaching levels never seen before with more than ten murders of women per day; in 2022 that figure will increase to 11 women.

The women that Frayba accompanies are a fundamental basis for the articulation of cases and processes that seek peace, justice, truth and equality; They also participate in spaces for analysis, reflection and training for decision-making in their groups, organization, communities and towns. In addition to being protectors and providers for their families, they become DEFENDERS OF HUMAN RIGHTS.

With more people joining Lemmy and other decentralised networks there is a growing shift to the common misogyny and sexism we find on other social media networks (YouTube, Reddit, etc.).

I think it's pretty obvious that the reason is that there are even less women here than other places online. What are your ideas on how to change that? Or do you feel it is a lost cause?

Harping on people to get married from up in the ivory tower fails to engage with reality of life in the dating trenches.
