i hate the trans culture war; can't people agree that 'being trans' is a real oppressed thing we need way more cultural compassion for, and also that trans ppl aren't in fact completely biologically identical to their desired gender and u cant control ppl's perception of gender

Nobody thinks that trans people are “biologically identical to their desired gender”. We’re aware you can’t control people’s perception of gender. That said, transitioning by itself leads to a lot of trans individuals being perceived as their gender identity without question.

But people ARE saying trans women are women, and that you can change sex, not just gender, and that Trans women should be treated exactly the same as biological women. This is why lots of women are pushing back; not because theyre transphobic. Twitter is full of these examples.
