Hi all. I'll try to keep it short and sweet.
I've had an interest in a lesbian-only discord server for years now, and after a bit of looking around, I noticed that a number of other posters on here seem to share that interest. I'd really love to curate a safe and exclusive space for lesbians with a focus on hobbies and away from exhausting gender nonsense.
My server premise is fourfold:
If anyone's interested, I'll try to get the server set up sometime soon. The link would be private, so I'd be DMing any gyn who wants in.
I'd be interested,
Make sure you set up a funnel for all new members to be screened. The minute somebody let's one person in as a favour, is usually the minute I see lesbian discord broken down,
So be adamant on that,
I'd rather a small discord with 10 lesbians, than a 50 person discord, with lesbians as yet again, another minority.
Absolutely. I'd be the only one with access to links/creating links so that there's no chance someone can let someone else in as a favor, like you mentioned. I also agree on the server being small but 100% lesbian; I'm really tired of all "sapphic" discords being 99% bi women (no hate, I just want to meet more women who are like me.)
Your plan sounds great. Tho I feel like a new account popping up wanting to connect with lesbians, especially on a TERF site, has to be approached cautiously
Looking at the low score idk if that's downvotes? And if so are they coming from seasoned users here who know better than me, or from angry lurking TIMs maybe. Sigh It's always so complicated
Unfortunately for us, this space being viewed by all of Ovarit still puts us at the mercy at jaded demographics who so desperately want to speak for us.
To be told they can't, is unfathomable,
The ideals here are way better, the demographics, same shit you'd expect from reddit.
Sounds interesting. Also sounds like a lot of work to properly vet people. You know the moment a TIM finds out they will try to game the system.
Yeah, that's always the thing about servers like these - you have to be so careful about how you vet. I've never had it happen to me personally but the mere idea of a TIM using a female family member or friend/partner to vet for them (or a TIM getting in somehow in general) is chilling, but that's precisely why I'd try to be as thorough as possible. It's not foolproof of course but I think in-depth questionnaires about rad ideology plus a voicechat usually filters them out pretty well.
Yes, I made an account just so I could join this. I've been feeling isolated as a radfem lesbian and I'm craving this, I would really love just dumping art, sharing feedback and get inspired/motivated!
