About

A place for serious and silly content intended for women's perspectives. Yes, this includes ALL women. If you identify as a woman, you are welcome here.

(We are not the same mods as the Reddit r/twoxchromosomes sub)

Rules

We are currently following a modified version of r/TwoXChromosomes rules here.

Why THIS Community Name?

We chose this community name since it was already well established on Reddit. During the great Reddit migration of 2023 people were looking for the same or similar communities to what they had on Reddit, searching for names they already knew was the easiest way to get members. We have chosen to keep this name since it's well recognized. As stated above, ANY woman is welcome here.

"maybe throw horns \m/ "

Man, I love devil horns, it's a great non verbal communicator. I remember seeing someone wearing a t-shirt of one of my favourite bands at an semi fancy event once. I wasn't able to go over and talk to them, so I excitedly waved, pointed at my own t-shirt (which was plain), and then threw devil horns. They understood what I was saying and in that moment, a friendship was formed, although unfortunately we never got the chance to actually talk.

I just love the fact that I was dressed quite unlike I usually do, so didn't have many alt aspects of my appearance, but this one neat hand gesture was sufficient to establish rapport between me and someone cool.

It's kinda crazy how something that simple can unite people. Metal is membership in a worldwide community, with that nigh universal symbol Apple able to bridge languages and culture in a way that very little else does.

It's beautiful

I remember doing the horns at the graduation ceremony for my bachelor's diploma. I look back in embarrassment but I just sort of didn't know what else to do.
