“Can you define woman without excluding any woman?” Yes, I can, actually.
A woman is a person born with at least one X chromosome and with the absence of a Y chromosome.
It’s fairly simple. People with Turner’s syndrome (XO) are ALWAYS female, and people with Klinefelter’s syndrome (XXY) are ALWAYS male, because the presence of the Y chromosome makes them male. And this isn’t my opinion by the way, this is medical literature. We’re also talking about sex here, not gender. This includes any variation of chromosomes - for example, the extremely rare genetic disorder, XXXYY, people with this disorder are ALWAYS MALE, even though they have more than one (and two!) X chromosomes, because the presence of the Y chromosome makes you male.
I give any radfems and/or TERFs the right to use this explanation whenever some TRA trues to pull the “but what about (extremely rare genetic disorder) or (someone with no ovaries, a hysterectomy, etc). Because you don’t really need to define “woman” by external genitalia or even anatomy, because there’s one thing that all women have, no matter what. And it’s at least one X chromosome, and no Y chromosome.

what the actual fuck? all of the comments were supporting this dude even after this disgustingly misogynistic comment. I feel so bad for the women at that event.
"I don't even act like a man" yes you do. you're just completely delusional. @redditreceipts

If you identify as female, why are you taking the perspective of a male?

I really love this instagram post specifically because the person asking the question is simultaneously making the answer impossible. If they had worded it normally ("Almost all women menstruate - so, why is there still so much stigma?"), the answer would have been obvious - only women menstruate, and because of misogyny, normal female bodily processes are stigmatised. But by not acknowledging this reality in the "info" graphic, we will never reach a conclusion - the question will forever remain unanswered.
So why does menstruation still remain stigmatised? It's disgust towards the female anatomy and the imperative towards women to hide their female physiology. It's the shame and humiliation that is hammered into every little girl's brain when she discovers that she is female, and her realisation that she will have to make her female body appear presentable if she does not want to risk social ostracisation. That's the reason. And unless we understand the direct link between female anatomy, reproductive capability and misogyny, we are never going to solve that problem.
So yeah, that's what we mean when we say that gender-inclusive language is robbing us of our words. That's it.

there is a twitter drama going on that I don’t feel like getting into because I honestly didn’t keep up with it but I was thinking to myself yesterday someone is gonna say rape is acceptable if you’re an “oppressed minority” or whatever and I hate being proven right in this case.

dude i used to identify as nonbinary and shit and when people ask me “why did you become a terf” it’s genuinely because i took anatomy as an elective. once you get away from social media and sit down and actually learn what the human body does you realize a bunch of shit tras say either makes no sense or is contradictory to what we understand about the human body

I just saw this video of a GNC woman asking a genuine question to the trans community about gender stereotypes. And despite her apologising so much for fear of being cancelled, she made some great points. But some of the replies made me go like HMMM.
Okay, but what does a woman feel like? What is a womanly feeling?
This woman legit spent 1/3 of the video begging not to be cancelled and she didn't want to be labeled as transphobic, she just asked a question. Who is she pestering here? She didn't even go to a trans person's page, she uploaded a video asking for input from the trans community because she wanted to understand.
????! How is this not problematic? This is absolutely giving me religious vibes. You aren't allowed to question ANYTHING, you just need to accept it without thinking about it? How is that not terrifying? Blind faith?
Okay, but if you can't explain it then how is it real in the first place?
I think this is my biggest issue with this community. Because you aren't allowed you question, you just need to accept it. You can't ask about it, because then you're pestering. No one can explain what it is, but nevertheless it's real and if you don't think so you're transphobic.
I genuinely think that is very flawed and creates a culture where people are too scared to ask about it in fear of backlash. And furthermore creates ignorance. This legit feels the same as 'god has a plan for us so we should never question it.' And to me that's terrifying.
