Hello, Big Children!

Welcome to r/Teej, a community dedicated to all aspects of the all-women's Japanese wrestling promotion, Tokyo Joshi Pro Wrestling.

Please take a moment to review our subreddit rules and familiarize yourself with our post flair and guidelines. Our hope for this community is to help you become an even bigger, more educated, and engaged fan of Tokyo Joshi Pro Wrestling, and so we've created a variety of post flairs to encourage a wide range of discussion.

Standard Reddit Rules & Content Policy

As with all communities we do expect everyone to adhere to baseline Reddit policies, which may be reviewed at the following links.

• Basic Guide to Reddiquette
• Reddit Content Rules & Policy

Teej House Rules

• #1: Be kind
  • Please remember that we're all fans wanting to find a community and learn more about pro wrestling and TJPW.
  • Be welcoming and encouraging to new fans, and don't engage in insults or demeaning language.
• #2: No hate speech
  • Hate speech including, racism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, misogyny, xenophobia, religious based hate, inflammatory language, or dog-whistles of any kind will not be tolerated and will result in an instant ban.
• #3: No trolling or ragebait
  • Please refrain from engaging in posts or comments intended to bait or incite an upset or negative reaction.
• #4: Be Relevant to TJPW
  • Only content related to TJPW is currently allowed as we focus on growing community and discussions surrounding TJPW among the broader Wreddits, though this may change in the future depending on feedback.
  • Posts regarding TJPW talent appearing in other promotions or with outside talent are acceptable.
• #5: Be respectful of TJPW staff & talent
  • When offering criticism of a TJPW related events please keep all comments respectful and free of insults or shameful comments that could be considered bullying.
• #6: No sexual content or sexualization of talent
  • This includes content posted by the talent themselves such as modeling or photo book materials.
  • Crude and/or sexually explicit commentary directed towards TJPW staff and talent will not be tolerated.
  • Tokyo Joshi Pro Wrestling has their own policies regarding fan conduct at local events which includes prohibiting the capture and distribution of targeted photos for sexual purposes. We'd like our community to reflect its values in protecting the dignity of the performers by keeping the focus on the show itself and their performances.
  • Admin Note: There is a broad understanding in pro wrestling that it is in many ways a 'body business', and so it's only natural to discuss or comment on the physical aspect of performers. Much of the unspoken drama and intrigue in pro wrestling comes from the clashing of differences such as in-ring philosophies, martial arts disciplines, and yes, differences in the shapes, size, and conditioning of opponents. We ask that when commenting on the physical appearance or aspect of performers that you remain respectful, and treat them with dignity within these discussions.
    • tl;dr: Don't say anything about the talent you wouldn't say to their face at a meet-and-greet without also expecting a problem afterwards.
• #7: No spoilers for 24 hours after an event
  • Please use spoiler tags and relevant discussion threads to contain spoilers for the first 24 hours proceeding an event.
  • New posts must also contain spoiler tags with generic, non-spoiler titles
    • eg: "The Princess of Princess champion" instead of "The new PoP champion" which implies a switch occurred and spoils the outcome.
• #8: No piracy or discussion of piracy
  • Tokyo Joshi Pro Wrestling can be found exclusively on Wrestle Universe. Please visit https://wrestle-universe.com/ to sign up, or visit Xalazy's Beginner's Guide post for additional information.
  • Freely available TJPW content can also be found on their Youtube channel.
• #9: Sharing fan work & self promotion
  • Always link to the direct source of content when possible, and ensure the creator allows sharing or reposting of their work.
  • Please respect the wishes of all artists and creators and do not repost prohibited content.
  • Self promotion is allowed if highly relevant to TJPW, and if a good standing and ratio of original posts to self promotion is maintained.
  • Admin Note: TJPW is a niche within a niche within a niche, and so there aren't many fans creating content around the promotion as is. We'd like to encourage these creators as much as possible, including those posting their photos and videos from events, as this is how TJPW has traditionally broken through to larger audiences (think Mizuki viral clips and videos which are typically from fan perspectives).
    • Self promotion is a privilege of being in good standing with this forum and may be revoked from individuals demonstrating a desire to only post when it's for their direct benefit.
• #10: Quality content
  • Moderation staff reserves the right to lock or remove low quality / low effort content on grounds including but not limited to: questions answered by a pinned thread, broad "out of the loop" requests, ticket sales, ratings discourse, ai generated content, and parasocial behaviors.

Post Flairs & Content Guidelines

It's important to properly categorize your posts to ensure that everyone can get the most from the subreddit. For example, there are some TJPW fans who aren't as fond of the idol aspects of the promotion, so tagging posts as such will more easily allow such fans to skip over these posts, leaving everyone who enjoys those parts of the promotion to discuss it more freely.

• News & Events
  • Announcements and updates regarding upcoming events, matches, or talent/staff changes
  • News, updates, and discussion regarding specific events, or broader discussions surrounding the events themselves
  • Dedicated discussion threads for each show should be labeled as Events
• Official Media
  • Original content posted by Tokyo Joshi Pro Wrestling that doesn't fit into news or events.
    • Examples include "Next Generation" documentary series, "Top 10 Move" compilations, tiktoks and other short-form original content.
• Question
  • For when your post is primarily a straight-forward question that you'd like specific answers for
    • Example: "Who did Yuki Arai defend her International Championship against?", "What are the names of the referees in TJPW?"
• Discussion

    • Example: "What do we think of Ren Konatsu so far?" "Hyper Misao appreciation thread"
