I started reading GC views on Reddit after the JK tweets. I belong to a few FB groups (rhymes with Funz for those in Toronto) which were very pro trans and very SJW (I don't love this word as I think there are valid conversations to be had but these people take it to an extreme sometimes). In any case, a few years ago a trans woman with a penis wanted to go into a Toronto spa and was denied. At the time, I felt she was a woman and should be allowed in (not thinking of what a woman really is as I had been indoctrinated into this way of thinking, if I thought otherwise I would be a Terf, transphobe, terrible person etc).

Anyway, I peaked after reading JKs tweets and researching GC on reddit, reading some actual trans peoples reticle and thoughts on these types of ideas and realizing that it is OK and even healthy to question the status quo. I realized that trans women will never truly be women and that gender has been willfully made to be a confusing thing so that you don't even need to medically transistion in order to be a "woman" or a "man". You can just identify as a different gender.

The lines have totally been blurred and I can't even define a woman at this point since apparently biology means nothing and all you need to do is wear womens clothes grow your hair long and put on some makeup. That, as someone who was born female, is something I cannot get behind.
