Hello!

As this community has experienced some growth (0.2% to be exact!), and I want to encourage members to submit content, I thought it might be helpful to create a post that highlights what content is suited to this community. Said another way, what is “Femcare”?

  • Femcare focuses a great deal on ‘care.’ An easy example of care is cuddling or other content with lots of tender, physical contact, but care can be emotional and does not have to be sexual. Note there is a distinction between content that depicts care, and contact that depicts sensual, softer, or romantic sex such as 1, 2 or 3. These three examples are all cases that, while softer and romantic, are not care focused, and thus are unsuitable for this community.
  • Like femdom in a sense, femcare highlights a situation in which a woman is doing the caring. This is an obvious example, where she is holding her partner, but it can be more subtle. Content where a man is acting as the caregiver, such as this is not femcare.
  • As also mentioned in the rules, one of the people must be female. The other can be of any gender, or in the case of POV content, could be the reader. POV content should be explicitly focused on the reader, through the use of captions/dialog, or other such methods. A post title alone is not sufficient for solo content to count as POV.
  • Femcare is focused on softness, wholesomeness, love and affection. While not always involving nudity or cuddling, these emotions should be evident. Typically this means the people look as though they are enjoying themselves and each other. This is a good example of content that achieves this.
  • Femcare is usually sensual, and may be overtly sexual, so long as the caring elements are maintained. Kinky content, no matter how gentle, is not suitable for this community.

Unlike the rules, these are really just guidelines and open to some amount of interpretation. As always, I welcome your thoughts and feedback.

    Tenderness is still much more “expected” of femme people so I’ve probably run into it more, and I still think there could be more of that sort of healthy representation of sensuality. Guys definitely have it a lot worse, the “archetypes” for mens’ roles in porn are pretty limited and there’s not a lot of room for caresses and care there.
