This ideology is fundamentally illogical. They will never arrive at a reasonable conclusion by playing label games and re-categorizing existing categories. There is an obvious difference between trans people and non-trans, which is that non-trans people don't need to transition or change their sex/gender in any way. One group needs changing, the other doesn't. Therefore trans-women are not JUST women, they are women who transitioned, and denying this is denying reality. On top of that, forcing people to deny reality is bullying, gaslighting, and totalitarian.

I think they'll go after the term "trans" itself, and everything vanishes in a puff of logic sometime around December 2023 (and the TERFs take over, restarting the nightmare cycle)

because, you see, if you keep prefacing "woman" with "trans," you're implying they're somehow DIFFERENT from women, that they used to BE something else, that there's something about their BIOLOGY you want to say, right?

they've already come after they/them (since people use that to avoid she/her, like with Chris-Chan): had Tumblr stayed around there would've been a trans/NB showdown 2019

this is what happens when you have everything run by social-media 17-21yos whose only material achievement in life will be a new campus center or another

yes, that's correct. They don't like that prefix, but dropping it means denying some part of reality.
