It’s literally the opposite of compelled speech since I have asked you not to say something, provided neutral alternatives, and states you are free to say it anyway but you need to know it’s an insult. It is not in any way a restriction on speech or feelings.

We aren’t talking about just talking to you. I’m talking about women’s ability to freely id males as males and not women in general, not directed at you personally. 🙄

No one is stopping you from denying the humanity of trans women, but we are allowed to tell you how insulting and hateful it is.

Recognising that all transwomen are males is not ignoring their humanity. It’s not meeting a male desire.

We’re never going to agree on this. Defining someone over their objection by a painful medical history they had no choice in is extremely dehumanizing.

And ignoring women in order to cater to sad males is extremely dehumanising.

No one is ignoring you.

You’re ignoring women’s voices in order to listen to more men. You’re ignoring women to allow men to explain women’s experiences. You’re silencing women’s voices to allow men to speak some more.

You are talking. Jk Rowling has one of the largest platforms in the world. You aren’t venting silenced.

She received death threats and rape threats for it, and her physically abusive ex husband was given a platform in magazines to say he hit her and was proud.

Wow no silencing here

I am talking and you are insinuating that it’s out of maliciousness and cruelty because it’s female speech about womanhood which does not suit males who wish to own womanhood. That is an attempt to silence.
