Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.

Rules…

Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Anyone under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is free to decide whether a women's community is a good fit for them.
Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.

Yeah. This post sounds good, but the actual moral of the story sucks.

One is "don't lie all the time or nobody will believe you, even when telling the truth."

The other is "nobody will ever believe you, regardless of how truthful you are."

Is that the moral... I remember one who would say that it is

Never tell the same lie twice.

Unless it's for consistency. If you have a long-term lie going, you need to keep it consistent, or others will notice the plot-holes.

One is “don’t lie all the time or nobody will believe you, even when telling the truth.”

I'm not sure this moral sucks though.

The other one sucks, but it's true.

We agree. I'm saying that one is good, and the other sucks.

Nope, just checking, you're good if you've seen them! I've seen you around before quite a bit, but not a familiar "face" to me here.

Ah yes, that does mean that men aren't allowed to comment here. Very happy to chat about Cassandra or feminism or the patriarchy in another community anytime though! !feminism@lemmy.world is rather active :)
