I spent most of 50 years being a woman. Short men aren't me. Dressed with drugs or surgery men aren't me. You have no clue what being a big woman is like. I'm a tall woman. You're a man. Stop insulting me.

Most of us have bodies that are fairly obvious. Most women menstruate, that removes any doubt. Any man who has ejaculated doesn't need to go under the microscope, either.
@TheFamousArtBR
The thing about teaching about "anal sex" is that girls need to be taught it's normal to never want it because their bodies aren't designed for it. Porn makes it seem normal and lots of girls are getting hurt.
They need to know porn is fiction.
@FunkGodArtist
She was telling you she's not done feeling like the hero to "trans youth" and that she believes you're so rare that she won't let you get in the way of her "being on the right side of history."
She decided to keep her comfort over believing you.
@troonytoons
I remember decades ago in Jane magazine reading a fellow teen girl's question about how ashamed she was to pee loudly. That's how girls think. We worry about being silent with body functions. Wanting to pee loud is not a female trait.
@TracycCoyle
I remember the first time a trans woman at my then employer was in the bathroom at work. 29 years ago. I was 18. She probably didn't know that I was alert and hurried about getting out of there. Because I didn't say anything.
Acquiesce and fear isn't consent. We're aware.
@Jebadoo2
Men who hate women having dignity and authority over their bodies like to throw bombs. They do it at abortion clinics, too. Men with religious convictions and righteous anger are a bad combo.

Why should women's taxes fund multiple categories for males to win in and zero categories for women to be able to compete only against women? You're suggesting there only be men's and mixed sex categories. The public shouldn't fund that.

2- most countries don't hate themselves for things that their dead did in the past. The American left is working very hard to shame other Americans for just being born here.

You're also asking straight people to be bi or homosexual, and we're not going for it, either. Straight women aren't attracted to transmen. If they are then they're actually bi or homosexual.

It's such a confluence of fetishes. It's almost marvelous, the layers.
Yes, these days it's just seen as free choice and fantasy, but he really would have been locked up for this once. No one would have hesitated.
@ilovepreserves
A man telling the wife he betrayed to smile more is so typically male of him. She might be relieved to feel she doesn't have to fake smiles now.
@TheFamousArtBR
I'd prefer a medical doctor wearing their white coat came into health class and told them the horror stories of bleeding and tearing requiring intervention, that it's never safe.
We're dealing with a horrifying pervasive porn culture. This is about protecting girls from harm.

So the vocal cord thickening that happens to females on T thins back out when they stop taking it?
The vaginal atrophy resolves?
The facial hair stops growing?
You really think this? Have you read anything from a detransitioner?
@TheFamousArtBR
Izzard forgets that if he were alive back then he just wouldn't have worn the dresses and have been fine. They seem to act like the dresses are bonded to their bodies and not a choice.

@dotSWOOSH
Why did you use a person who doesn't have women's breast tissue and women's breasts to advertise bras women need? I don't boycott almost ever, but you treat transwomen better than women and I think I'm not a customer you want, anyway. Sell only to transwomen.

No problem. Both parties of the couple will lean forward and talk over your lap the entire fight instead of you taking the nicer seat on the aisle. Everyone can be less happy that way.

@xxclusionary
You're a man who doesn't like being looked at by men and for some reason that means women should be ok with men in women's spaces?
Men don't belong in our spaces at all. Even if they say they're women.
We don't want mixed sex spaces for us.

@feminemi1y
Every time your wife/girlfriend has her period even though you're sexually active, gather together all her used hygiene products in case there's a baby in the blood, and pay for a funeral.
Every month, go out to the cemetery and bury her used pads.
We miscarry without knowing
@HazelAppleyard_
So it means screwing your friend that you like but aren't attracted to because you figured you'd like the sex?
And if you're not aromantic, you can be in love with them, enjoy having frequent sex with them, but you're asexual because you just don't find them sexually attractive?
@MrMennoTweets
It's frustrating that TRAs say to talk to trans people. Many of us have and have considered ourselves allies. But we found troubling aspects to the whole mess they refuse to see.

@TheOmniLiberal
You have to use a distorted definition of racism if you want to say that.
Bigotry towards someone because of their race is racism.
The crap you were fed about power imbalances is not even a good understanding of Marx. It's just racism with extra steps.
@theneonrequiem
It's disappointing AF when grown women do this. I hit middle age and no longer felt I needed to follow every trend but these women I guess aren't over that yet.
@NoCisgender
We used to understand that men in dresses are still men. We just understood it. They're men. It wasn't complicated.
And we liked some of them. They did their thing, we didn't hate them.

The other thing that can help some trauma victims is holding people who hurt them accountable. If she needs to point out how your activist cult hurts people as part of her healing journey, then she does.
You could try not pushing your damaging cult if you don't like it.

He tried to force his traumatized daughter to be enthusiastic about getting a new stepmother. He kept sending her to therapists, not going with her. He basically expected her to get over it. He's a terrible father.
@bendreyfuss
The kid was depressed and wanted MAiD, the parents were ok with it, and a doctor was willing to perform it. Who was I to stand in the way of a *medical choice?* People wanting to abuse their kids has nothing to do with me. Parents rights are absolute, all the time.
Ugh.

@DisaffectedPod
Almost zero heterosexual men bend over backwards to please any individual woman. They're not all interested in every woman. Women have to fight for respect. The kind of pandering for sex isn't respect.
@BlakeBlakebabee
I really prefer this generation to be forgotten. I was tried of all the focus on Gen X in the 90s, elders telling us what we were instead of letting us figure it out. I don't want the opinions of the zoomers now, either.
@bjportraits
This gender bull is not a left wing position at all. It's wealth extraction. I can't believe any leftist falls for this. It's simple consumerism.
I miss the crunchy granola leftists.

So vulnerable that they made a small woman run for her life and have to be escorted away with police protection? Isn't it marginalizing someone to not let her speak a single word about wanting to be safe?
@OliLondonTV
If I remember correctly, Nike has been trying to get the attention of those of us women who have larger bodies, but want to exercise and some of us want to work towards a healthier BMI, but them using Dylan has actually turned me off to their brand. I'll shop elsewhere.

Women have had short hair, sure. My mom did. She didn't claim it made her something other than a woman, though. That's ridiculous. Nonbinary is nonsense.

Even if you were making a lot of money doing this, it almost has to be its own job because so many of us can't come out of the shadows. We need people who can afford to speak up.

"expected me to know without her telling me". I was raised in a completely dysfunctional home. When I was a young adult I literally got a book on how to clean my house. I knew how to run a vacuum, sure, I knew how to do the very basics, but he could get a book. They exist.

I don't consider man or woman to be a gender in the current sense of the word. I have a sex. My sex isn't based on internal feelings, it's based on my body. Even if I felt like my Chevy was an Audi the reality is not based on my feelings.

Telling a male to use the men's room doesn't cause him to poof out of existence or shove him into a gas chamber. He's still alive, safe and well, and there's even urinals for him, unlike in the women's room!

@LottieHistory
Where the hell do you people live that was common? I knew a couple kids that were at most gender non-conforming. I knew gay teens. I worked with older students for a decade as an adult and met ZERO trans students at the school and just a couple transwomen in my personal life.
@HannahBerrelli
Straight women have an interest in having these men not hide their AGP, getting these women trapped in bad marriages. If feminists have an interest in understanding these men it's because we want to prevent trans widows.
