Lol. No. Also 'women' and 'people who don't accept that trans women are women' are not the same group. Also, if you want the right to refer to trans women as 'men', you might have to accept other people's right to refer to you as 'cis' or even 'TERF.'https://twitter.com/GreedyRosie/status/956636194917449735 …

Saying someone is 'really a man' when the biological indicators are ambiguous is not a rational, evidence-based position. Biological sex is not limited to gonads or chromosomes and brains and hormones are the things which make people actually 'feel' the gender they are.

Um actually yes. SEX is determined by genetics. The presence of a Y chromosome is indicative of a male. XXY Is still a male, as far as genetics is considered. Furthermore, having genetic defects make up less than 1% of the pop. Most trannies are not born with

He was a male who knew he was a male - not a male who thought and felt female. This isn't analogous to a male who decides he feels female (leaving aside the 'how can you know what it feels like?' question). A man who thinks his wife is actually his hat doesn't make his wife a hat

You are missing the point. What told him he was male? He had a vagina and his family told him he was a girl. *Other biological indicators of sex* made him know he was male. Biologists have found these indicators in trans people supporting their sense of their own gender.
-
We are not Male or Female based on 'who told us' or what we are told. As you say, his biology made him male. What he was told didn't change the fact. You're still ducking the point that to be a 'trans woman' you MUST be a male. A woman cannot be a 'trans woman'.
-
This is my point. We can't tell people what they are. How did he know what sex he was? It wasn't because he had a penis. I'm not ducking it. I'm pointing out that trans women have biological indicators of maleness. How do you define male?
-
I can't keep explaining this over and over again. You've already said that someone without a penis can be a man so you acknowledge that other biological indicators exist. Do you need evidence that trans women have them?
