Dm looking for players! (women only, lgbt friendly safe space.)

Hello! My name is William,and I'm  a trans/gender neutral DM. I was recently watching a critcrab video on YouTube about a "women's only" group gone wrong, and it inspired me to post here to make a safe space group. I was a woman for the first 27 years of my life so I hope I can understand some sensitive issues and avoid them accordingly. I was hoping for a ladies only group so no one has to worry about getting awkward pressure for male players hitting on them or their characters. There's enough of that.  My most recent game just finished, and my usual group is too busy to play at the moment, but I'm still open to DM. Our last game was about missing monodrones and a vampire cult using them to create cyborg monstrosits,and a group of vampire hunters fighting against them.  Here's some info about games I like to run -I've been playing dnd for only 3 years, 1 of 3.5 and 2 of 5e. I'm still a little green on some technical aspects and I don't mind if anyone corrects me.  -I allow "rule of cool" if it sounds amazing and is well thought out, I'll give you a chance to make it happen.  -I do enjoy the creativity of homebrew races, as long as you run it by me for balance sake first.  -I enjoy rewarding players just as much for problem solving and conversation as much as pure combat. I try to keep it balanced between them. I deal out experience points after any puzzle, but I good conversation, great idea and combat.  -if you ever truly get stuck on a puzzle, you can roll to see if your /character /might know the solution for a hint.  - I do allow character death, but if you really do want to play them again, you might have to go down a quest or two to find them and bring them back.  I have a 0 tolerance level for any sexist, racist, homophobic or abelist comments. (I don't mind swearing, but it must stick to the above rules)  I love taking players back stories and making them part of the plot.  -i like to play around 2 hours once a week.  I do enjoy The bit of humour and I will admit to a meme or two while playing.  Available days: (time zone PST)   Friday from 7-pm to 10pm Saturday 9am to 10pm Sunday 9am to 7pm Im happy to answer any questions you have and I can even send you references from. My players I'd that helps Things I will not do  I dislike "edgy lone wolf" characters and players. You need to find a reason to be a part of a team. The (I've been an orphan and raised on the streets and don't trust anyone, I'm broody and stick to the shadows and only care about myself) types.  Any descriptions of sexual content.The closest you'll get from me is "the half orc winks and you and says"my rooms upstairs, care to join me?"  and *rolls dice* you two have a very enjoyable and relaxing evening together.  I try to do character voices but because I'm. Trans they usually come. Out squeaky, so I try to talk with my regular voice.  Possible new campaign ideas : 1)You Are employed by a bank to transport several tonnes of silver from one country to another, using a submarine. Someething happens to the sub and you must retrieve the ship pieces and the treasure to complete your journey.(all underwater campaign!)  2)deep in the hot and humid jungles of chult (land of dinosaurs and aztec technology) you are in a small market when large Bat humanoids begin kidnapping anyone in sight, and taking them to a flying,upsidown aztech pyramid in the sky. It slowly rotates and stains the sky a sickly yellow. You hear od more towns being ransacked and the towns put together their meager wealth to employ you to get to the bottom of this. 3)a wealthy drow household is commissioning you to build their menagerie', one to outdo their rivals. They need several exotic and unusual creatures and need the muscle to catch them. a small troup of gnome thralls a company you to tend to the supply wagon and bring back messages from their drow mistress 4)the icy barbarian tribes of the North are at war with the selkie folk of the deep unfreezing sea below, and several sponsors of power, both good and evil, are waiting for someone to strike a deal with to tip the balance of power.  If this sounds like something you might be interested in, please send me a message! 
Hi,  Just wanted to say that this is cool. I'm a female DM and player and haven't had any issues with anyone, but I've heard some horror stories from people.  All my games are PG-13 apart from the odd rude joke.  My players are a pretty mixed bag but I find having some ground rules up front is really key, and I'd stress that for any players or GMs out there.  Please play where you feel safe, with people who make you feel safe.  
Thank you! I've had experience with a "that guy" in my group before that kept trying to explicitly seduce everything and player characters and blame it "because that's what my character would do!" I cant stand for anything like that. Thankfully that's as worse as it got.  Yes I agree to having the rules of conduct explained first before any sessions it helps weed out any red flags I've missed. I hope your game is going well and thank you for replying =) 
Yo just watched that episode yesterday and was cringing and thinking that those players had so much more patience than me explaining their frustrations afterward. Thankfully my wife hasn't experienced anything like this but we usually play together and I got that high noon draw partner thing going on to scare the creeps lol. I hope you get a good solid game going here.

Oh holy cow... I just saw that episode. Like seriously?!?!  My games aren't explicitly inclusive, but there's no way I would tolerate that kind of behaviour from anyone towards anyone else, IRL or online.
Ctit crab is the best!! I love his videos so much. I csnt believe how much patience he women of the group even had trying to explain it to "rando" (obv DM's alter ego) i hope they find a good group!
