No. She is not (she is not here having been thrown off twitter so i'll take the liberty of saying what i think she is saying). She is saying that being a woman is a material reality. There are specific risks and vulnerabilities associated with that material reality, and...
... therefore there are specific (hard fought for) legal protections for women as a sex. These are not based on 'gender identity' - you cannot identify into or out of these specific risks & vulnerabilities so they should remain tied to the material reality of sex.

You ask whether transwomen should be 'treated like women'. Sure, if by that you mean treated as human beings, fully equal to any other, free to wear what they like, not bullied or harassed.
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

Look, I don’t want to be rude, I can see you want to talk about this all day but I have to get on with work, I can’t do that sorry.

Yes. Me too. I'm easily distracted. Everyone has human rights. These are universal. Women have specific protection for their human rights based on their sex. I don't want these taken away.
