Hey, I generally agree w/ your takes & identify w/ rationalism. In the spirit of dispelling hysteria, I offer this possible sanity check: the ppl who, *in these times*, say stuff like this, are often the ppl who also deny trans' ppl's identities wholesale. In another context, /1
this tweet would be innocuous. But context matters. This says nothing of whether this particular "violation" is an overstep (surely it's not the most egregious thing you could say to hate on trans ppl), /2
but it does counter the notion that this statement ("only females...") is totally benign & not meant as insult. This user literally seems to deny that transwomen are ever women. /end
Even *if* they're denying that trans women are ever women, which the tweet is not doing, that's not hate. You may disagree with it, and I very often disagree with the thing they're trying to express also - but it's not hate, it's just a different perspective on how gender works.
Twitter may be over capacity or experiencing a momentary hiccup. Try again or visit Twitter Status for more information.
