I am troubled by vocal views in #globaldevelopment that equate womanhood with biology. As we approach #InternationalWomensDay, I’ve been doing some thinking on why Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminists (TERFs) exist and why it’s so counterintuitive to #intersectionalfeminsim
Anyway to answer your question... "how does the sex-based definition of womanhood view those who have had surgeries to remove organs, or have been born without them” Are they forever in the" other" category (3/)

Seriously no. I've never heard any one say this. Women who've had a hysterectomy are women. Woman who've had mastectomies Women who are infertile. Women with MRKH born without a vagina. All women. (4/)

Post menopausal women are women. (5/) - 6 more replies
