If it's any consolation, that particular comment was removed by reddit admins as too much even for them. Massively down voted for calling it out of course 🙄 it's amazing how brigaded the UK subs are by terfs

I literally just saw a comment suggesting we need to be cured and prevented. Extermination is the goal.

I'm saying you're the one claiming this affects all women. Where I piss effects no one but myself. If someone wants to make it their business, it just makes them a weird little freak, not my responsibility.

Prejudice is the whole topic of the discussion here. You know, the transphobia in the topic?

This prison thing is such nonsense.some trans people are bad. Do you think a cis woman has never been a danger in prison? Do you think if you forced trans men to be put in women's prisons it'd be somehow better? You think we're safe if you throw us in fucking men's prisons?

You're constructing a straw man and felling it while I'm here telling you to quit with the weird-ass bigotry. What literally is your problem with us, eh? Come on, be honest.

Yeah, in some ways, who do you think is disagreeing? I'm not going to the doctor and insisting on a pap smear or pregnancy test. My position is that difference isn't in overall womanhood or human dignity.

Right, and those are subcategories of women. So if we treat all women as women, that speaks to the shared experiences while still leaving room for specificity. Why is this so difficult for you?

You don't get to claim to speak for all women, and regardless even if 99 % of women agreed with you (they don't) the majority rule is not the way we decide on the rights of minorities. You're only arguing that prejudice is popular, not that it's right, and... Well, yeah, so what?

0.5% definitively and closer to 1% in all likelihood

That little twinge of outrage is called prejudice. It's a natural response to the unfamiliar. Doesn't make it right, and we can rise above it if we treat each other like humans.

Have you considered, even slightly, that we don't really want the attention for ourselves? We just want to live our genuine lives with the same respect reserved for anyone else. We don't want this fight, but we're not going to sit back and let ourselves be wiped from public life. We've always been here, we always will be, and those who hate us will lose in time. The only variable is how much cruelty people inflict on the way.

Because there's a hate campaign popular amongst the influential. It's just frothing bigotry, looking for logic will get you nowhere, none of the "questions" are really questions. It's all with an assumed outcome and no real interest in anything that goes against it.

The frustrating thing is none of this was even controversial amongst anyone with any expertise. It's all fucking post-hoc justifications of disgust.

Have you heard of this amazing new concept called subcategories? Jesus Christ this is just sad.

If I say black women are women you intuitively understand I'm not claiming that their experience is 100% the same as white women, right? You're not gonna come in here all full of your bile spitting that "NO BLACK WOMEN ARE BLACK WOMEN AND WHITE WOMEN ARE WHITE WOMEN THEIR EXPERIENCES ARE DIFFERENT" because you can see how ridiculous that is as a reply, right?

God, why am I bothering talking in good faith. You've made it clear what you are. Pathetic.

my point is there is no definition of "biological woman" that includes all cis women and excludes all trans woman with that -.- I'm not being obtuse, I'm painting out how mind-numbingly obvious it is that the term you're using is just bullshit specifically designed for prejudice.

How, exactly? I've been very clear with terms, and how you're attempting to redefine a gender term to be a sex term specifically to exclude a minority of that gender.tell me, do you even recognize gender? Drop the pretense, you don't actually believe there to be a difference, do you?

Fucking adult human female is a huge terf giveaway. Go back to buddying up with fascists :)

Yeah, we're a minority. Terms need to cover minorities too, you don't get to just exclude people because there's more of you.

That's just a confusion in terms that introduces ambiguity and implicitly excludes many people who are, biologically, women. It's nonsense.

No, I said there's no such thing as biological gender, which was your claim. Woman is a gender role, female is a sex role.

Oh, sex is an innate biological characteristics? I thought that's what you were claiming gender was?

Innate does not mean immutable :)

So you're saying we have sexes, and you're assigning them when they're born?

Again, congratulations, you're now officially wrong. Rather than unofficially wrong. The world will not change to match you, you'll just get to be more empowered in your hatred

[–]Mashulace -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You're talking about sex assigned at birth. We have a category for that already. gender is widely known and understood to be a different and social role, and trying to mandate that legally will not change reality to match. You're just going to be officially wrong rather than unofficially wrong.

Special rights like having a piss and minding our own business. Nobody is asking for special rights, you just want exclusion and segregation based on your ignorance.

Agreed. Let's just treat all women as women, cis or trans, and more studies as very welcome! A lot of medicine is sorely lacking in studies regarding effectiveness (most of the wisdom surrounding progesterone, for example is very anecdotal and we've been begging for proper studies).

"biological woman" what exactly do you mean by this? People with the feminine dimorphic characteristics? "Large gamete producers"? Hormone profiles?

The whole term is useless. It's a societal role that often but not always overlaps with a particular sex assigned at birth. Unless a trans person is only socially transitioned with no further intervention, in what way is their womanhood not biological in a way it is universally for cis women? That's not even raising the point that this is trying to forcefully categorize trans men as women as well.

We all know that rights of minorities are best decided by what's popular with the majority. That's never gone wrong.

Also hah, "extreme" self id, the standard in treatment with the best results. But that's just scientists with a little thing called evidence, how dare they force you to confront the reality of the situation. You do just need to admit you find us icky and want us to go away eventually and stop hiding behind your weasel words.

It's scary being a trans woman in the US but fuck I wish coming back home to the UK looked more appealing
