It’s honestly disgusting how much transphobia there is on this site.
You’re not a member of the LGBT community if you don’t support all members of the community. It’s like arguing that bisexual people aren’t discriminated against. It’s LGBT not LG.
I don’t understand how you can be a feminist while exluding various groups of women. It’s honestly the “no true scott” fallacy in practice. Just because a woman wasn’t born a woman doesn’t mean she isn’t one. It’s the same with men. So it’s not like they’re taking anything from you. They’re not taking your feminity.
1. You aren’t suddenly not gay or lesbian if you don’t support someone else
2. It was originally LG so lol
3. You are actually hilarious using the no true scot fallacy because that’s exactly what you did in our first sentence.
4. Not being born a female is exactly what makes them not female
5. They are taking things away from us. They are taking over feminism and demanding we restructure our movement around them; they are taking away or language and telling us we are transphobic if we do not include them in every sentence we make; they are calling themselves female, natal women, and lesbians erasing our existence
6. Female == femininity which is the problem we have with gender and trans women in the first place. Trans women reinforce gender stereotypes that we have worked to abolish.
