QT/Trans: Trans women say feminism and women's rights should include ALL women, and this means anyone who identifies as a woman. But 99% of women are cis. Why then do trans women not care about the history and rights of 99% of women?

Your opinion also isn't shared by vast swathes of the population. Trans people have sued for not being allowed to use the restroom or locker room that matches their gender identity, and won. In my state, it is illegal to harass a person for using a restroom that doesn't match their birth sex, and there are notices put up that violators will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

We all know vast swathes of the world hate women and want our rights taken away. Telling us how you agree with them doesn’t explain why men expressing femininity being considered more important than protecting women from rape is something you apparently agree with.

Trans women aren't men. We define gender identity as a personal conception of oneself as male, female, both or neither.

According to a PPRI study, 51% of men support requiring transgender individuals to use bathrooms corresponding to their assigned sex at birth, compared to four in ten 40% of women. Are you going to tell these women that they hate themselves?

No, I think they are ignorant and have latched onto “be nice” pseudo feminism that serves to give men what they want. Trans women are male and being adult and male is the only thing that makes someone a man.

You’re preaching gender to a non believer who cannot be converted. Try “correcting” my language and ignoring the point til you’re blue in the face if you must but it’s a waste of time.

Please address ideas instead of policing language.

These women also believe trans men should have the right to use the men's restroom. The transgender movement is also about trans men.

Duh. I don’t care if women choose to stupidly put themselves at risk by using the men’s rooms. We’ve been over this before gb.

Transmen are still women latched onto fake feminism that hurts female rights and advancement. They are still ignorant of feminism.

My entire point still stands regardless of how much attention it pays to transmen.
