MODERATORS
I just want to be clear (not to this person but to anyone reading) that they are wrong.
They are assuming what they will read as evidence in books and literature. It's frankly kind of astonishing that I can say "I'm an expert, I'm a biologist, and trans women are women with tons of biological evidence for that validity" and then have this person say "AH but the SCIENCE says I'm right, you just have FEELINGS!"
To be clear, the science says I'm right, the feelings are irrelevant. Toodles!
Wtf are you talking about? They didn't get emotional, they cited sources, they explained clearly that you're wrong. But you can't see past your desire to invalidate trans people to even bring yourself to attempt to refute any of the points they laid out, calling the actual research scientist immature and emotional. Once again, every accusation is a confession.
You certainly don't.
It has been explained to you that XX doesn't always equal female and XY doesn't always equal male and yet you ignore this as you can't make an argument against it.
It has been explained to you that biological sex is a separate thing to gender, yet again you ignore it as this flies in the face of your argument.
It has been explained to you that sexual dimorphism has so many exceptions that it can't be a rule, but once again, no refutation because you lack any knowledge beyond your desire to feel superior in your belief that you are right.
You say you're not transphobic, but I believe words are cheap, actions are important, and your actions are very telling.
TRANS PEOPLE KNOW THEY ARE NOT CHANGING SEX. THEY ARE CHANGING GENDER!
Damn, how stupid are you?
No, that's enough stupidity for one night. If you want to know more, read above, read the book suggested to you, touch grass and get a life.
Thanks for finally being clear about your intentions. I was quite interested in what that biologist had to say, so I read much further through this than I normally would have.
Toodles, shitmuncher~
