"Womanhood is a social act that does not require matching genitals. Pregnancy is a physical condition that does not require identifying as a woman."

CassandraExMachina - 1 point ·15 minutes ago

"Womanhood is NOT social. Are you kidding me? Women have been oppressed and raped and killed for THOUSANDS of years on the basis of their sex. Girls are still killed in some countries upon BIRTH because of their female sex, should they tell their killers they don't self-identify with the social act of womanhood so they can survive? Are other races just performative, too? Is being black or white a social act? Do you think you can appropriate that as well?

Women WAKE UP. Our compassion is being weaponized against us to remove our rights. This thread is 500 comments strong and almost no one BLINKED at the erasure of the WORD WOMAN when referring to pregnancy. A movement is being colonized to promote misogyny. It's transparent."

upon BIRTH

In the modern era, before birth too.

Yes, with current diagnostic tools like the non-invasive test of maternal blood known as the NIPT the sex of a fetus can be easily and rather inexpensively ascertained at 8/9 weeks. Which helps explain why in many parts of the world like India the custom of aborting female fetuses simply because they are female has been on the rise in recent years.

This is a good sign! Glad to hear there are others(women specifically) PEAKING!!

It feels like everywhere I go, I see TRA propaganda and there's no space for real discussions...My workplace is PLAGUED with libfem rhetoric and they talk politics ALL THE DAMN TIME. It is tiring. No offense to the Americans, but the americans I work with are OBSESSED with regressive 'progressive' politics ,aka, they're morally SUPERIOR to everyone else and everyone BETTER agree or you're a literal Nazi/Hitler that it is annoying.

I know I'm wishing for utopia but...it would be nice to look back on this in history as just a minor little "flop" and laugh at how RIDICULOUS we were...

...as much as I love my mother country, I can't go back due to extreme violence and also the hatred they have for women there in particular. So...I'll bear these dumb "identity" politics instead over at the current country I am in. It's stupid.

As an immigrant, Progressive American Goody Two Shoes (SJWs) obsessed with intersectionality will probably allow you to say GC things, so I would go for it - tell the truth. You come from a country where women literally can't identify out of their violent oppression, so your coworkers can't challenge your lived experience, and they worship you as an immigrant anyway.

Even if your coworkers never acknowledge it, you speaking out might help others think through their own rejection of gender ideology and also make it easier for them to speak out when the tide starts to turn.

And many of them will glowingly talk about Kamala, even though it was HER idea to lock single mothers in jail if they had children who were truent. (Mainly on reddit)

Here she talks about how proud she was of that idea.
