In 6 years, it went from "I just wanna pee" to "... folks in media, the term "biological males" is a serious anti-trans slur. You should not use it without noting that."

On a serious note, theres some sex ed and biology teachers in the comments asking to being better educated on the right terms for teaching. Wtf. Like, we already have the right terms: male and female.

When I was trans, everyone said "bio woman" and stuff like that and it wasnt that long ago (2010s or something, I don't remember it correctly) then it suddenly changed.

I am seriously starting to get irritated by WOKE teachers.

OK then, if they are not biological males, then they don't need health insurance to provide HRT and surgery in order for them to become "women."

Trans "logic" eats itself...

They are BIOLOGCAL MALES!!! This is ridiculous & the term biologcal is now deemed "transphobic". I'm sure the word reality will be deemed "transphobic" next. This is sickening that we're catering to male delusions & not caring about actual females' human biological rights. They will always be biologcal males & that's not "transphobic" to state they are natal biological males who produce sperm. This is sad that stating facts is called transphobic, & let's me know that this is sinister plan in play.

Making objective reality the enemy is a real slippery slope to accepting all sorts of delusions.

Forcing people to tell what everyone knows to be lies and making it verboten for anyone to mention observable reality are methods of demoralizing people that long have been used by authoritarian/totalitarian regimes.

Evolutionary biologist/ Managing Editor of Quillette, Colin Wright, says this all the time. His twitter is very informative:

I agree, let's not use it anymore. I propose sperm producers, prostate havers, or maybe ejaculators. Let's not reduce people to genitals!!!!

It’s so infuriating that such a small group of people have such a stranglehold on language to the point that intelligent people are censoring themselves and buying into this incoherent nonsense because they think they’re being bigoted if they don’t. They’ve eroded away common sense through their endless, aggressive campaign of assimilation or annihilation. You either conform to their ideology or be prepared to be bullied, badgered, threatened, and punished until you do or you’re permanently silenced. I can’t believe I have to listen to doctors and scientists tell me that “sex is a spectrum” and “biological women” is an offensive term, unless of course, you use it to validate trans people. When did someone’s feelings become the defining factor in the meaning of words, instead of objective truth and material realities? It’s Orwellian.

But they’re not trying to destroy the idea of biological sex guys, c’mon they’re just saying that you should literally never mention it ever, and if you could also stop teaching children about it that would be great!

Extremely reasonable, rational, fully thought out demands.

Remember trans women are women, they know about biology and it’s A HUGE DEAL FOR THEM BRENDA because their biology not matching their brain is FORCING them to transition. That’s why they want to be let into women’s prisons, and into lesbian spaces, and women’s bathrooms, rape shelters, women’s roles in the workforce and the arts. Because they know what biology is, they really understand how it works.

Compared to them we are merely pleb tier cis, our understanding as gender based on biological sex is simply outdated compared to the new eunuch wave of the future. Godspeed.

Yep, and feminists completely failed at gate keeping their movement. Since when did feminism need to be inclusive of men? This is an argument I will never understand.

I think what happened was that older feminists, like myself, thought the most crucial battles had been won, so went off to live life.

In the meantime, some nefarious forces, who don't want women to have freedom, realized that children really are the future, so changed "Women's Studies" to "Gender Studies" at universities and started pushing a new "feminism" - Third Wave or whatever - that is actually a men's rights movement.

Then older feminists like me woke up and the house was on fire, so we became Insta-TERFs.
