I think "inclusive" in the context of a women-only community means it's a women's space that doesn't exclude lesbians and trans women (or other LGBT+ folks who feel they belong in a women-only space, like some enbies and so on).

as someone who just got told to not post there ever again (i was not being mean, i was adding to community discussion), describing this community as “inclusive” is a bit if a misnomer.

Thanks Amazing Awesome and I know you weren't being remotely mean. We've had to be women only because we've had so much abuse from the manosphere. We really appreciate nice men though, and I know you were just contributing.

You may want to consider closing the group and making it by approval only. I had commented before not realizing women only posts may have also meant no comments also. Hard to prove who is who online though.

Its a good idea but I don't think we can do that on lemmy? I don't want to seperate us too much but it's something to consider

You can’t. Piefed has a few more options regarding downvotes, that you may already be aware of

I don’t fully trust chatgpt, but here are steps it suggested.
Set Community to Restricted or Private During or after creation:
Go to your community page.
Click “Community Settings” (gear icon if you’re a mod).
Under “Community Type”, choose:
Restricted – Only mods can post; anyone can view.
Private – Only approved users can post/comment; content may be hidden from outsiders depending on server config.
🔒 Private is best for a fully closed community.
Enable “Require mod approval to join”.
You can also toggle:
“Allow users to follow”: turn off if you don’t want lurkers.
“Enable posting for approved users only”.
Users request to join your community.
As a mod, go to the mod queue and approve or reject requests.
