We are founded on the belief that you do not have to justify your existence or worth as a human.
We will not be reduced to gender binary stereotypes. If you are not sure about this, if you are unclear about any of these terms, we’d like to invite you to google them, and discuss them, but we will not accept the questioning of the validity or the humanity of those whose experiences differ from yours.
If you don’t feel comfortable
accepting these guidelines for
behaviour in our space, you are welcome to remain silent on those issues or leave.
If you do not feel safe or you feel someone is transgressing these clear boundaries, please let us know and we will address it. If it is one of us that is making you feel unsafe, please leave us a note and we will address our own transgressions and hold one another to account.
We appreciate you may not be
aware of the arguments that exist around these issues, you might be new to feminism, please do look at the books in our library, the zines in the Grrrl Zine library to help you find out more about these terms.
