Responding, some comments may be cheeky:

If you say so.
>>He did. Hallowed be the patriarchy, lol.
Myself is a lot of thoughts from an “identity” that doesn’t get much publicity.
>>Mmmm hmmm
Not that I put stock in identities; I put stock in accomplishment and work.
>>Based, go on...
The work of creating Spinster, and the existence of it, is a goddamn important thing at a time where all stripes of women, whether or not some agree with their womanhood, are being erased for the benefit of gay space communism.
>>Agreed
If you’re trans, you’re a woman to me;
>>Hard disagree. More than 11 on the 10 point disagree scale.
but when we get down to reality, you can cause medical harm if you disregard the differences between women and women who happen to be trans.
>>Great truth, needs to be published more.
Spinster’s right about the death of women as we know it — but they should recognize that it’s the death of transsexuality as those who knew it before 2009 knew it, it’s the death of lesbians and tomboys, and it’s the death of the intersexed before they ever had a chance to be acknowledged.
>>God, I miss Tomboys in my teenage years, most were undercover freaks...
After all, the intersexed prove a sex binary by being the exception which proves the rule.
>>Based and true, if I read you correctly. Are you saying the mere act of dress up + biology to align with gender feelings one does not correct proves that there are only two sexes biologically? If so, I concur.
When it comes to free speech, these groups need each other to maintain the verbal and social traditions that have allowed them to raise their children safely, take care of themselves amid perceived and real threat, and ensure the continuation of those verbal and social traditions.
>>Need, yes. Though in turn all groups need to learn to have the same standards and similar facility in free speech and free writings.
Chromosomes define your sex.
>>Bio 101
There are bizarre exceptions to this rule; birth control in the 70’s and 80’s led to a number of physical and neurological birth defects (which we’re not allowed to address as such). But if we can’t speak about the biological and chemical realities of these things, as well as see each other as people when we speak about it, then nothing will ever get accomplished. We’ll just be here, on a divided federation of social networks which in and of themselves are part of a divided federation of social networks.
>>Agreed
There are real conversations to be had, real conversations that can’t be had if you refuse to ask the question, “given your belief in sex being defined by chromosomes, do you accept my femininity?” and the other person refuses to take the additional effort to say, “despite my disagreements with others on this topic, I do respect your identity and see you in no other way,” then that which comes after agreement can never be reached.
>>Well done.
Nobel prize in literature.
@realcaseyrollins @Prodigal If you say so.
