The most respectful and accurate term is women.https://twitter.com/ChurchillLib/status/983761748103606272 …
I'm unsure what term would be appropriate tho for people who want to accept trans women as women. Can't really use terminology which implies that they are not just to please people who think that. I hope that accepting their right to disagree would be enough to keep them onside.

Ah, I think the problem for you is not a problem for me because women are women and transwomen are transwomen. Womanhood has not been changed by their existence. I accept and embrace them as transwomen.
-
No, probably not. And if you don't insist on people using your preferred terminology, there's no problem, really! We can just disagree.
-
For sure. But I will never accept the word "cis" nor support those who use it.
-
The last bit is a shame. I try to support people regardless of their terminology provided they don't insist other people must use it too.
-
I can't support groups that dismiss me any more. This is a difficult conversation for me & I'm confused as to why you're pushing this agenda so hard with so little consideration for the value of the life experiences of people formerly known as women. You can call me an fka woman.

I'm sorry! We don't have to talk about it ever again, if you don't want to. I just saw your tweet and have been wondering about terminology. I thought you might have a better word. I didn't know that you had any particular position on this.

And I'm not pushing any agenda hard. I want people to be able to define gender how they want so I get called a terf and delusional trans activist often. I have consideration for other women's life experiences and values but am mostly guided by my own.
