o/Lesbians is a space for lesbians to connect, thrive, and build a genuine lesbian community. We define lesbianism as homosexuality; a woman’s exclusive same-sex attraction to other women. Participation by non-lesbians in this circle is not allowed.
Along with our rules, we enforce the sitewide rules and guidelines.
No participation by people who are not both female and exclusively same sex attracted. Users in violation will be banned. This includes posting, commenting, and voting.
Assume good faith. Please refrain from being preemptively belligerent or defensive.
No attacks, insults, or reciprocation. If you are attacked by another user, use the report button instead of reciprocating. If you reciprocate, you will also be in violation of this rule.
No slurs or pejoratives. The words 'cis' or 'cisgender' used to refer to other women are considered slurs. Name calling, ad hominem attacks, and other language used specifically to target another user will also not be tolerated.
No bullying/ganging up on people. If the content is rule-breaking, report it instead of piling on.
Refrain from overgeneralizing your own experience onto others, or implying that what was true for you is necessarily true for all lesbians.
No criticism of sexual boundaries or relationship boundaries.
No content questioning one's lesbian orientation. Posts like 'When did you know?' are okay, but posts like 'What am I?' are not. We cannot tell you what you are. Similarly, refrain from unfounded speculation regarding the sex lives and sexuality of other women.
Gender-critical or trans-critical content lacking a lesbian focus will be removed.
No derailing or hijacking. This refers to posting a comment that is unrelated to the topic of the post, which often kills the original discussion.
No pornography. NSFW posts must be marked as such.
No selfies or other sharing of personal identifying information; no spam; and no self-promotion.
No using the exclusivity of the circle in bad faith towards/about the rest of the site, its content, or other users, who cannot respond if they've been misunderstood or misrepresented.
Amazing!! I'm learning crochet and want to make a squirrel as well ❤️
Crochet is so fun and relaxing! Maybe a little frustrating when just starting out but it's so rewarding to make stuff. I love it. But make sure you take care of your wrists, I'm starting to get some carpal tunnel symptoms.
Make sure to post your finished projects!
I've been crocheting for only a week and a half, but I am absolutely in loooove with it!! All my other hobbies and games are on hold for now because I want to be able to make dolls of my favorite characters 🤣 And yes, it's so rewarding to see your project come to life before your very eyes! It makes me want to learn sewing one day so I can make plushies with minky fabric. Also yeah, I am worried about getting carpal tunnel, not from crochet but from my crappy desk job. What are your symptoms?
It might take a little bit to get to making your favorite characters but it's definitely worth working at it until you can.
I mostly get numbness but lately I've had very minor pain and discomfort in my hands, wrists and fingers. It's probably also from holding my switch and steam deck for too long at a time. So I've gotta take a bit of a break from doing almost all of my favorite things lol
Oh for sure haha. At least all the online tutorials are awesome, I can now make a little chibi doll!
And I hope your symptoms go away. I definitely know how you feel, I love drawing, gaming, and crocheting. All hand and wrist intensive. Are you being sure to take breaks and stretch your wrist, etc?
Yeah I'm getting better with it. Just gotta take a few days off and hopefully it'll feel better.
