Safe space

Useful advice on entering a trans safe space.

A safe space is any place (on or offline) that implicitly or explicitly avoids triggering topics, and enforces rules against bullying and abuse. Safe spaces are created for an oppressed group to be able to attend without the fear of being endangered or silenced by the privileged group they would encounter outside of the safe space. For example, a black and minority ethnic (BME) group may be inaccessible to white people, as their position of privilege will potentially make the environment unsafe.
