Merry Christmas All......
Rest up, everyone, and let's hit the ground running in January!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
As this year comes to a close, we want to take a moment to speak directly to our readers.
This message is for everyone who has stood with The Women Post throughout the year — women, LGBTQ+ people, and men allies, who believe in independent journalism, human dignity, and the importance of holding power to account.
This is not simply a seasonal greeting. It is a reflection on where this year began, what we have built together, and where we are going as we step into January.
So first, and sincerely: Merry Christmas, and thank you for being here.
Where This Year Started
At the beginning of the year, The Women Post was still carving out its place in a media environment that often marginalizes women-led platforms and underrepresents LGBTQ+ perspectives, while simultaneously discouraging journalism that directly challenges entrenched power.
We began with a clear purpose: to build an independent publication focused on women’s rights, LGBTQ+ justice, political participation, and the economic realities shaping people’s lives — without corporate interference and without watering down the truth.
From the outset, we understood that this work would require courage, consistency, and community. Independent journalism does not thrive in isolation. It thrives when readers believe it is worth protecting.
What we did not fully know then was how deeply readers would engage — or how much this publication would grow alongside them.
What We Have Built Together
Over the course of this year, The Women Post became more than a news project. It became a space for serious, principled reporting on issues that directly impact women, LGBTQ+ communities, and the broader fight for equality.
Together, we published in-depth journalism on rising inflation, food insecurity affecting LGBTQ+ people, young girls, single mothers, attacks on reproductive rights, and political decisions that disproportionately impact marginalized communities. We examined how power operates — and how it is often wielded against those already pushed to the margins.
We covered protests, organizing efforts, and resistance movements led by people who refused to accept the erosion of rights as inevitable. We highlighted leadership that too often goes unrecognized and documented injustice that too often goes unchallenged.
We did this without corporate sponsorship shaping our editorial line. We did it without pressure to soften conclusions or dilute language for comfort.
That independence exists because readers supported it.
You read closely.
You shared our work.
You questioned and engaged.
You became free and paid members and helped sustain this publication.
That support is not symbolic. It is what makes this work possible.
Standing Together Through a Difficult Year
This year has been difficult for many.
Economic strain intensified. Political hostility toward women, LGBTQ+ communities, and immigrants dehumanization. For some, simply existing openly and safely became more complicated. The pressure to disengage — to look away — was constant.
And yet, many of you stayed.
You continued reading journalism that does not offer easy reassurance. You supported reporting that asks uncomfortable questions. You remained invested in the belief that truth, accountability, and solidarity still matter.
The Women Post does not report from a distance. We exist within the same realities our readers face. The issues we cover are not abstract — they shape daily lives, families, and futures.
That shared understanding is what has allowed this publication to build trust and credibility over time.
Looking Ahead to January 2026
As we move into 2026, The Women Post is preparing to deepen and expand its work.
In the coming year, we will:
Publish more long-form investigative journalism
Expand political and economic analysis centered on gender and equality
Continue amplifying women’s leadership and LGBTQ+ voices
Hold institutions and elected officials accountable with clarity and rigor
The year ahead will demand sustained attention and independent reporting. We are committed to meeting that challenge — and we know we cannot do it alone.
Why Membership Matters — And Our Christmas Offer
Independent journalism survives because people like you choose to support it.
This Christmas, The Women Post is offering 40% off all membership plans as both a thank-you and an invitation to support our work.
Membership directly funds reporting, research, editing, and publication. It allows us to remain independent, reader-supported, and accountable to our community — not advertisers or political interests.
If you have been reading without becoming a paid member, this is an opportunity to step in.
If you are already a paid member, this is our way of saying thank you.
If you believe journalism should serve people — including women and LGBTQ+ communities — rather than power, your support matters.
Before this year ends, we want to say this plainly:
Thank you for reading The Women Post.
Thank you for supporting independent journalism.
Thank you for standing with a publication committed to equity, accountability, and truth.
You have helped sustain reporting that centers voices too often sidelined — and insists that women and LGBTQ+ rights are human rights.
As the year comes to a close, we wish all our readers — women, men allies, and LGBTQ+ people — a peaceful Christmas season.
Take time where you can. Rest where possible. Hold close what matters.
We will be here in January, continuing this work with the same commitment that brought us here — grounded in integrity, independence, and the belief that journalism can still serve the public good.










Merry Christmas and thanks for all you do. Take this time to appreciate and bond with those you love. May we make each other stronger in the year ahead.
Thanks for all your great work!
