Comment and Abuse Policy
Updated August 1, 2026
This is a space built on honesty, and the comments section is no different. You're welcome here if you show up with respect and willingness to disagree without making it personal.
A few ground rules:
Threatening, intimidating, or sexually inappropriate comments, including those targeting me personally or directed at other women in this community, will be removed immediately and the commenter blocked. Threats of any kind, including those sent via the comments section, contact page and email, will be documented and reported to the appropriate authorities. This is not a space where that behavior is overlooked.
Comments that invoke religious or cultural doctrine to argue that women are obligated to serve, submit, or shrink, including but not limited to "the Bible says" framings, will be removed. This blog does not debate the validity of your faith. It also does not entertain the use of scripture as a reason women should stay exhausted and silent. If you don’t agree with my content, I give you permission to visit other websites that support your beliefs.
Spam, self-promotion, and links to your own or unrelated businesses will be removed without explanation.
By commenting, you're agreeing that your words might occasionally show up as feedback or in other Finding My Fierce content. If you'd prefer your comment stays put, just say so in the comment itself and I'll respect that.
