dear well-meaning allies: no hard feelings for honest mistakes but please don't write "transwomen" or "transmen." this makes "trans" function as a strange othering modifier on the gender. Trans women are women who are trans, not some other kind of being entirely called transwomen
Oh, absolutely. A person's cis- or transness isn't always relevant. Just as we don't always specify that we're referring to a cis person when telling a story or whatever, we don't always need to specify that we're referring to a trans person. A trans woman is just a woman.
