Nobody is denying they are people, but a transgender identified person can get pregnat only if she is female. "Inclusive" language is not going to change that fact.

refuse to acknowledge that transgender people are people

That's a weird straw-person.

No one is saying they aren't people and no one is advocating against their right to 'just be'.

Saying 'transwomen are women', 'transmen are men', is not asking to 'just be'. That would be 'transwomen are transwomen', or 'transwomen are male/men'. By insisting they are something they are not, and colonizing a space that doesn't belong to them, they are not just innocently existing.

If doctors like Conti get their way, no transgender person will be able to get pregnant because they will all have been sterilized as children. That's the ultimate goal, right?

The replies give me hope though. I will fight this fight to be acknowledged as a woman and mother. I didn't choose to be female but I have experienced being female for over 30 years. I chose to become a mother and I love it. I love breastfeeding and talking about it. There are very few places a woman can feel free to discuss these things and they want to take those spaces away from us. Just make your own "seahorse daddy" sub or "first time male to female dads uwu" sub and leave me alone.

The people replying seem to find many flaws in her arguement.

"Hurting these people"? What about the push to remove the right of women to 'just be'?
