Hello! I was a lurker on reddit for a long time and finally decided to join the forum. I admire the FDS handbook and the focus on leveling up, self-empowerment, and having high standards. I'm really glad that I found this group, its nice to know other like minded women are out there!! ❤️
I applied 6 months ago and still haven’t heard anything. Is there an ETA?
Hey everyone! I have been a lurker for a while, and wasn’t strong enough to join because I was in an abusive relationship. Now that I am free, my eyes are wide open and FDS helped me take steps to understand that I can be strong and never allow myself to fall into that trap again. I love this community!
Hi! I was a lurker on reddit and finding FDS changed my life. I'm finally getting out of my awful marriage to a NVM and am excited to start my new life. The podcast has been keeping me motivated, and I'm so grateful for the encouragement to finally put myself first.
Found you queens after having some questions and reading a post on Reddit about how basically every female-only and feminist sub had been banned, and wondering why subs like /mensrights had not. Queue the anxiety after lurking through some of those posts o.O
So I started googling and FINALLY found this group. I listened to the first episode I could find of the podcast and just happy cried for the duration! I’m so glad to be here!
30/F :)
Hi, I have been lurking on the subreddit before it got archived. I'm glad that the main activity is now here, not on Reddit where plenty of lvm were taking a glance at posts to mock us or spread hate, or just for their own entertainment.
FDS has really opened my eyes. I'm happy that such community exists!
I was a lurker on the former subreddit and this forum for about a year. FDS has totally transformed my priorities and views about relationships in a way that I believe is personally best for me. Thank you so much to all of you lovely, wise ladies here <3
Hello, I’m trying to verify my account and I’ve gotten to the step of DM on Instagram. I DMed 10 days ago and it was never opened. How long is this process normally? I also purchased Patreon because I thought it was a fast track and while I’m enjoying it, it seems that there’s no automatic way to connect Patreon and Spaces. Any advice would help please🥺
I’m so happy to have found you queens. 32/f and wanting a dose of high value everything x
Hello! Been missing the Reddit but keeping up with the podcasts :) Glad I finally got around to signing up here
Happy to join this amazing company of women! Keep it up queens 👑
Hello! I'm glad to be here! ❤️
Hello glad to be here! As a queen shit subscriber can I just say I am one happy customer!! You Queens are the real MVP's in the war against the patriarchy and I am so glad to be apart of this community. Especially now that I'm healed and ready to get out in the dating world 😍
Hi! Super excited to be here after finding the podcast on Spotify🥰
Happy to be here!
Hi, I'm really pleased to be here. In 2021 I discovered and started lurking the subreddit. The advice has helped me so much and it's great to still have FDS!
Hellllooooo glad to be joining the FDS fam again YAY :) It helped me so much when I was processing my break up back then.
Hello, I'm new and ready to contribute to the community. Sucks that the other community got shut down, it helped me a lot, so I want to recreate that community here to help other women.
Hello ladies! I can’t wait to connect with all of you and craft a better dating strategy as I level up my life <3 It means everything to have access to FDS again.
Hi all my name is Nelly thanks for having me here x
I'm new to the website but not to FDS!! Hi everyone!
hey FDS...thanks keeping it a safe space for women only
So happy to have this space :)
Happy to be here!
Nice to be here and know that no one will have to suffer endless dic pic flashers! It was horrifying to learn what men have done to our mods on reddit.
SayNad reporting in! Glad to finally be here!
Hi! I'm happy to be on the formal fds website x)
I'm so happy to be here, just waiting on verification 🥰🥰🥰🥰 Love you all, queens!!
Hi! Just wanted to make sure my account is up and running. I can’t believe it took me this long to realize both the subs weren’t on my home page anymore.
hello! Excited to be here and off reddit! <3
Thank you for continuing your work, FDS! I love yall & thanks to you I am leveling up!
I just want to thank you guys for making this website! FDS really helped me when it came to relationships. Looking forward to continuing my level up journey!
Hi, new website looks great! I'm so glad we're off Reddit now.
Hey new member here! Followed you guys here after the subreddit shut down
Hello, I am really happy for FDS. I have been in Reddit FDS for a year. I am really glad that FDS exists.
Hiii Queens! I just listened to the podcast episode on why we left reddit. Mid way through the podcast I deleted reddit without hesitation. Although i follow a lot of wholesome subs on there like foraging and cat subs, i refuse to support a platform that tolerates discrimination and attacks spaces intended for women. I hope this app is a beautiful new start to the expansion of FDS ✌🏼
Hi, everyone! I'm really glad everyone moved to this safer website. I'm listening to the podcast right now "Why FDS is Abandoning Reddit (and You Should Too)" and planning to delete my Reddit account. My conscience is nagging at me that visiting Reddit means I'm indirectly supporting a website that hosts massive amounts of groups filled with men posting p9rn that Reddit supports and keeps up, while these same men are praised for destroying all non-p9rn spaces about and for women.
I also feel so sorry for the FDS subreddit mods! I suspected they were constantly abused by men, but I didn't know the extent. I'm glad they can rest easier now!
Hello ladies! Not sure if anyone remembers me from R*ddit, but I'm excited to be here. I think that other website is foul for sure and I am hoping to abandon it altogether as soon as I can verify myself completely here. I hope to see both old and new faces very soon. 😄
I wanted to know how the mod team verified if all the posters here were women/girls. There was a process which you could use on reddit (by looking at their search history) but Im confused about how the mods do this with only the posters' emails and usernames? I just don't want FDS to be raided by men in the future.
Tried clicking on the links above (rules, etc.) - links open up to blank pages. Anyone else experiencing this?
Happy to be here side by side with sisters. Is it safe being verified? Is it any chance of leaking info? Im a crypto rad fem and could lose my livehood
May 1, 2022, whenever I try to read the information in the links (list of rules, controversial opinions) the page displays the rules/opinions for a few seconds, and then the rules/opinions disappear and only the comments display. Very odd....
I was brought to FDS by a friend who saw me struggling in a relationship with a gigantic scrote. Been listening to the podcast for a few months but I stay off of reddit for personal reasons. I'm so happy to finally have an all female safe space!!
Hello and thank you!~
Hello
Excited to be here! Looking forward to the new start on this website :)
Hi. Was freaking out when I saw this gone on Reddit…was thinking oh great, another space ruined by men! 🙄 But then I found this and saw the real reason. Looking forward to being here and continuing to learn things.
Hi glad to be here! Glad FDS is off reddit!
Yay, so glad we’re leaving reddit behind!!
hi - thanks for the approval ✌🏻 nice to see the FDS is back ✨
