Drew you can post anywhere you want as far as I am concerned because you are always respectful even if I don't agree with you and you don't agree with me. You are a femme ally!

3. Don't make assumptions about someone just because they self-identify as Femme.

4. Keep in mind that there are as many ways to be Femme as there are Femmes. Any one way isn't any better than another. It's just different.

5. Respect the rights of Femmes to have their own spaces and not try to invade theirs.

6. Speak up when someone says something bigoted or sexist or ignorant or rude about Femmes or to a Femme.



P.S. I hope it's okay that I posted here even though it is the Femme Zone. If not, I apologize.
