Are trans women, women? What is a woman? It's a cluster of traits that's reappeared so often that we recognize it as a pattern. These traits are all over the board - physical, behavioral, mental. Nobody has the perfect set of all 'woman' traits, but we recognize 'womanness' 1/

There’s also a cluster of vaginas and breasts. If I get a boob job, that doesn’t make me a woman because I now fit into that cluster. Trans women are men who wish to be women, which is really fine, idc, personally. But to say they are equal to a biological woman is false.

Right but my point is that the 'woman' cluster is more than just biological traits. For example, my brain registers Nikki Tutorials as 'woman' even though she was born male; it's this "my brain registers you as" thing that I'm referring to here.
