Feminism & Liberation
This is a space for intersectional feminism. That means we fight for all women (cis and trans) and marginalized genders. Whether you are intersex, non-binary, agender, or gender non-conforming, your autonomy matters here.
Note: Some resources below focus on reproductive biology (uteruses, menstruation). These are intended for anyone with those anatomy needs, regardless of gender identity.
