Who's claiming "reproductive systems" are the only indiction of sex? Women are discriminated against because they are women, whether or not they have working reproductive systems. Denying that - the core of contemporary trans activism - seems very strange to me.

Trans exclusionary feminists who deny that gender differences exist in the brain and claim gender to be entirely a cultural construct. Conservatives who claim that reproductive systems alone are what decide gender and ignore massive evidence of brain differences in trans people.

And that arguments doesn't work anyway. If someone is inclined to discriminate against women, they're unlikely to check the contents of their knickers first so they'll discriminate against trans women as well as cis women.

Not so: female children are electively aborted, natal girls face FGM, child marriage, unwanted pregnancies and other factors that trans women will never face.

I certainly agree there is discrimination against women in some countries and cultures but I am talking about my own. However, unwanted pregnancy is not discrimination.

Exposing biological girls to unwanted pregnancies by promoting the delusion that sex differences are all a matter of opinion is discrimination. Imposing gender ideology on society & calling dissent "hate speech" is discrimination.

The first bit doesn't make any sense. How do girls become more at risk of getting pregnant if they believe in trans identity? I have agreed with the second one many times.

Promoting "abstinence only" sex education demonstrably leads to more pregnancies. Telling kids that a biological male is a female because he says so is delusional: he (she) can still get someone pregnant, or a trans male can still get pregnant.

If you show me that sex education now teaches kids that they can't get pregnant or make someone pregnant if they are trans, I will get on board with helping you oppose this very vigorously. I had no idea this was happening and remain skeptical that it is unless shown evidence.

HIV rates among trans men are a major problem: http://www.hivequal.org/homepage/trans-men-the-invisible-battle-with-hiv … Puberty blockers followed by hormones can make trans kids sterile & even lose sexual function: http://www.thepublicdiscourse.com/2018/04/21220/ Do I need to explain how M&F teens showering together could lead to pregnancy?

Hi! I wrote a thing about this where I give my stance on the last two issues. I wrote it so I didn't have to keep having the same tedious conversation over and over again. Consequently I am now muting this conversation.https://areomagazine.com/2017/09/27/an-argument-for-a-liberal-and-rational-approach-to-transgender-rights-and-inclusion/ …
