I liked the "elderly parents who need care" part. Like... Eddie Izzards mother died of cancer when he was eight, but sure, your... thing sounds terrible too? Caring for the parents that.... only... cis... women....... have?

I keep saying that when you define yourself *against* intersectionality and you make your goal to be actively anti-intersectional then you inevitably spiral into madness Universalizing everything to the maximum possible extent

The premise ends up as “women are miserable, men are happy, so therefore anyone who smiles is a man”

YES EXACTLY THIS. I've been trying to articulate this for ages. According to TERFs, being a woman basically means hard work, pain and bodily discomfort? Beginning to think I must not be a woman, solely on the grounds that I *like* being a woman.

It's a core foundation of their grift: being a woman must be the worst thing, because if being a woman is the worst thing, nothing they do can be punching down. Nothing they have can be undeserved, nothing they do can be be unjust, etc.

Theres a reason this whole thing in the UK came crawling out of the mumsnet swamp. "Speaking as a mother" followed by the worst bigoted shit in the world just morphed into "Speaking as a REAL woman", which you will note, they essentially define as "a mother"

Absolutely. I also think it has something to do with how absolutely MISERABLE the TERFs themselves find womanhood; they can't conceive of anybody wanting to be like them, so it *must* be a kink.

The Reader @MrsSadlyReplying to @RadiatorSunnyYep! When they are insisting they are women, they are never running round trying to get gym kits sorted for tomorrow, washing the kitchen floors because the dog has been sick, scrubbing a toilet, getting up in the middle the night to change a nappy, cleaning out a rabbit hutch 12 replies 0 retweets 12 likes -

It almost sounds like in their ideal society transition would be only made available if you agreed to then serve ten years as a cis woman's maid
