    as someone who just got told to not post there ever again (i was not being mean, i was adding to community discussion), describing this community as “inclusive” is a bit of a misnomer.

      Thanks Amazing Awesome and I know you weren’t being remotely mean. We’ve had to be women only because we’ve had so much abuse from the manosphere. We really appreciate nice men though, and I know you were just contributing.

        You may want to consider closing the group and making it by approval only. I had commented before not realizing women only posts may have also meant no comments also. Hard to prove who is who online though.

          Its a good idea but I don’t think we can do that on lemmy? I don’t want to seperate us too much but it’s something to consider

            I don’t fully trust chatgpt, but here are steps it suggested.

            Set Community to Restricted or Private During or after creation:

            Go to your community page.

            Click “Community Settings” (gear icon if you’re a mod).

            Under “Community Type”, choose:

            Restricted – Only mods can post; anyone can view.

            Private – Only approved users can post/comment; content may be hidden from outsiders depending on server config.

            🔒 Private is best for a fully closed community.

            1. Control Who Joins Still in settings:

            Enable “Require mod approval to join”.

            You can also toggle:

            “Allow users to follow”: turn off if you don’t want lurkers.

            “Enable posting for approved users only”.

            1. Manually Approve Members To approve users:

            Users request to join your community.

            As a mod, go to the mod queue and approve or reject requests.

      I think “inclusive” in the context of a women-only community means it’s a women’s space that doesn’t exclude lesbians and trans women (or other LGBT+ folks who feel they belong in a women-only space, like some enbies and so on).

    Good for y’all. Sorry youse are having such a hard time enforcing the “women only” rule… Some people can’t take a hint or read a sidebar…
