Stop Using Phony Science to Justify Transphobia - Scientific American Blog Network

I think article like these explain it a lot better than I could ever try to. I'm not gonna argue with people with such backwards views but I do think it's hilarious people are saying men are men women are women in a thread where the creator has a profile picture of a non binary gender fluid drag queen.
You can’t explain your own opinions and logic without the aid of someone else?

The trans movement is rooted in old-fashioned stereotypes, sexism and homophobia. I find it laughable that you think we’re the ones with backward views. Can you (you, yourself) explain how humans can change sex? How does it happen exactly?

Now I’ve got your attention, would you be able to explain to me how you came to your views that TWAW and TMAM? Serious question. Was it at school? University?

I wish TRAs would get a new article to try and bang us over the head with. That is honestly one of the most poorly written articles I’ve ever read and the conclusion that ‘transgender people are real’ isn’t even remotely relevant to the central argument the author purports to make.

The thing I don’t get is why the majority of TRAs insist TWAW and TMAM (well, I know why). But what I mean is why not be out and proud and fighting for rights as transgender in its own form? Black people didn’t fight for the right to be white. Gay people didn’t fight for the right to be straight. Just to be legally and lawfully equal.

Then again, I’ve answered my own question. They already are equal in law. In this country, there are no rights that trans people don’t have that non-trans people have. In fact, was it someone here who pointed out that trans people have rights that non-trans people have - such as changing birth certificate information for example? As a non-trans person, I can’t.

A TRA on Twitter posted a KATY MONTGOMERIE article (yes, really) and demanded that I “educate myself”

oh just duck off.

To clarify: you believe that the avatar of the thread creator dictates the views that can be validly expressed on a thread?

And you find a hilarious incongruity in the statement “men are men, women are women”?

There is little sense in any of your posts.

Reclaim the Night march - supposed to be about male on female violence now rebranded, full of men, and with violent threats towards women.
I saw something posted on GETTR by a woman who’s daughter attended the March with her friends. The March was separated into groups ( I think they were gay and trans, non white, and “cis” women …. I could be wrong about what the groups were but I remember the daughter’s Asian friend was told by a man that she had to go to a different part of the crowd). A woman’s Reclaim the Night March, separated into groups. 🤔

There's a few of us in this thread who are gay/les and in touch with drag culture, but that doesn't have anything to do with the creepy ~transbians~ obsessed with their 'girl' wicks in our spaces.

But I don't think you're really one to judge any woman in this thread when your first post here was saying that a woman looked like a bloke. Bit transphobic of you there as well.

I delve into the rabbit hole of MTF Reddit and some blogs the thing I'm most shocked about is that the vast majority want to keep their penises !! If you have a pen you should absolutely not be allowed in female spaces.
Also describing starting estrogen as going through a full blown puberty and feeling cramps er no it's not as you don't have a uterus so can't bleeping cramp or bleed.
I think it’s 97% of the men keep their genitals.(They’re quite happy for the children to lose theirs though).

I don’t understand how being related to a female-identifying male would mean that someone is ‘hardly a misogynist’ 🤷‍♀️

What is the proposed logic of that statement? I too have a brother, but that fact has no bearing on whether I am misogynistic or not.
The funny thing is, that person barged in here with the typical regressive trans rit - masculine women are basically men. Then proceeded to call us the backwards ones. 🤦‍♀️ 🤦‍♀️ 🤦‍♀️

The absolute bleeping hubris to wander in here, presume we have "backwards" views because we don't understand, then post some balls that could be picked apart by a teenager after a five minute lesson in critical thinking. Funny.

Compounded by the juvenile reductiveness of dismissing an accomplished female athlete for ‘looking like a geezer’, then resorting to profanity and shrieking ‘TERF!’ because, by their own admission, they cannot adequately articulate their viewpoint.

Such an ‘advanced’ contribution to the discussion 🤣

Yep, and this tweet (RTed by JKR) sums it up. These protests are a direct consequence of mainstream politicians pretending they don’t know what a woman is. They’ve legitimised this insanity.
