With few exceptions, women can do whatever the fuck they want now and are protected by law.

That's what you think because you aren't a woman.

We still live in a world where, even ir supposedly civilized countries, 90-95% of positions of power are held by men. We still live in a world where women can lose their rights in an instant, as the troonery trend can immediately show you: all they need to do is to allow men in women's private spaces like sports and bathrooms, and women are done being equal. While women intruding in men's bathrooms or sports or whatever is of no consequence. We still live in a world where women are hated just for being women. We still live in a world where women haven't escaped the shackles of their biology.

And I am sure this is going to instinctively make you angry. You hate hearing that women are weak. You think they have more than enough, thEY have it easy now, and they should be taught their place. That's because you're part of the problem.

This disparity is not clear evidence for your argument though. Men and women generally have much different temperaments and hence life and career goals stemming from said temperaments. You can't just point to a statistic and go "see? evidence of institutional sexism!", you have to actually investigate, drill down, and factor in all the variables at play. And there are many to consider in this case.

The absolute bullshit of this comment. So, what's a woman's temperament like? She can be a nurse? Of course, not a CEO, a surgeon or a lawyer?

Do you not see how this opinion is one step removed from troonery? There is no temperamental difference between men and women, then why does it matter if one transitions? Women are equal to men in every way, after all. It’s also interesting to me that trans people tend to say the opposite after transitioning. I’ve seen a lot of men saying being a woman is great and a lot of women saying being a man is tough as shit.

Men say being a woman is easy because they're not women. So they get access to the "privileges" without any of the bullshit. Kinda like a multimillionarie who gets access to free food for the homeless, and as he's gobbling down the free meal, he says that being poor is actually nice and easy.

Women say being a man is hard because they're not men. They try to look menacing and fail; they try to have boys consider them boys and fail; they try to get the advantages of being men but fail. So it's definitely very hard for them to (try to) be a man.

What dipshits like you always fail to understand is that when people say that men and women are equal, it means they're equally intelligent and equally worthy of their place in society. Especially now, in modern society, where the one thing men are actually better at - strength and violence - is no longer much needed.
