Makes sense. The urbanism meetup I mentioned actually specifies that it’s for “women and femmes”. It sounds like the “and femmes” part, perhaps along with clarification on what is meant by “femme”, might make sense.
Potentially, though this to me still sounds like an attempt to the definition down, or to leave some people out by being unclear. It would for example make an early-transition trans woman doubt if she is included, or a born-female nonbinary person who doesn’t think of themselves as particularly feminine.
We have not yet found a simple short phrase that includes everyone. I recommend explicitly listing who is included—again, if that is the intention. There are also groups that would like to not overinclude everyone. It feels better to communicate this directly than through such passive signage.
