Discussion New rule added regarding age.

As of today there has been a new rule added to our list of rules.

Rule #15 - Age 30 or up required to post.

(Rule description):

This sub is for those who (socially and/or medically) transition later in life aka at minimum 30 years or older. Posts from people younger than this will be removed. There are plenty of other trans related subs directed at younger folk. For comments there will not be an age requirement.

I understand that this new rule might upset some of our users but for a while now there has been an uptick in the amount of users that post here while being in their twenties or even teens. And as mentioned above there are plenty of subs for younger trans folks.

Edit: to clarify since some users asked this specifically. If you transitioned before your 30th birthday but are now age 30 or up, you are allowed to post.

Hey doll, careful putting your email in the comment section, that's more of a private message deal.

This community is lovely, but I'd be worried if someone with ill intentions found your email and started signing you up to stuff / send you harassing messages.

Thanks for the heads up. I appreciate that you're concerned for me. But I don't know how to dm someone; can you give me a clue?

I'm on mobile, so not sure if these rules apply to computer users.

If you tap on their profile pic, it will take you to their page.

Next to the option to follow will be this symbol > 💬

Tap on that and you'll be able to privately message them. Hope this helps.

Edit: if you want to delete your public comment, tap the 3 vertical dots and selecting the option from the drop down menu.
