A place where individuals of an oppressed group can go to find community with other individuals of the same group without feeling the threat of harassment or violence. People who are against the idea of safe spaces often misconstrue them as a place to escape reality, when actually they are places people go to understand the collective reality of oppression and find support. A safe space is not ignorant of hard realities, it's just a place where people can go to exist without fear of harassment based on parts of their identity.
Woman: It seems like women get talked over and have what they say completely disregarded. I want to create a safe space for women to express themselves without being shouted at
Neckbeard, unaware that this statement validates the woman's argument: Shut the fuck up you stupid bitch.

A Safe Space is a place where anyone can relax and be able to fully express, without fear of being made to feel uncomfortable, unwelcome, or unsafe on account of biological sex, race/ethnicity, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, cultural background, religious affiliation, age, or physical or mental ability.
Wow, I can actually go to a safe space to talk about my controversial views about something without being told that I'm a faggot! Incredible!

Contrary to popular misbelief, safe spaces are not about sheltering or impeding free speech, but instead are meant to be places that are respectful and free of hate.

A term primarily used on college campuses to descibe an area (usually a dorm room) that is safe for a person of any sexual orientation. Safe Space signs are small restangle pieces of cloth that are rainbow colored and have a blue square in the upper left corner with a yellow equal sign in it. The rainbow is used as a symbol of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgendered rights. The blue square with the yellow equal sign inside it represents equality.
My friend Jane has a Safe space sign on the door of her dorm room because she supports lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgendered rights.

a beautiful space, full of amazing precious divine women, where you can share your deepest fears, feelings and nudes and you'll be heard, cared for and loved. The best and really only valid example is the Clube das Deusas Lindinhas (Fralda do amor)
Safe space can be defined as: I love the girls at Clube das Deusas Lindinhas, they are the best friends i could dream of

A place where people can be safe from all the dickheads and morans who don't even know where the word comes from and who have literally never been systematically oppressed in their entire lives. The first safe spaces were gay bars in the 60s when people beat the shit out of gays and it was in fact illegal to be gay. Nowadays the word is used to describe a place where no-one harasses, persecutes or shames others. It is a place where one doesn't have to listen to the bullshit of people who lack empathy, social skills and brains because they are so fucking privileged. But for some assholes this is too much.
Excuse me, this is supposed to be a safe space so would you please take your hand off my breast and get the fuck out of here.
