You can colour me totally surprised that the good people of development twitter (at least most who've chatted with me) say they believe that male people can be woman, in some real sense. And that insisting we need a word for female people is old hat (and mean and not inclusive).
Right but "gender identity" is not the same as sex. If someone tells you they are a transwoman that means they are male. So I can't possibly at the same time believe they are a woman. Because women are not male.
