I have so many questions and I'm fearful of asking because I'll probably be accused of being a TERF or a Transphobe..
I consider myself a feminist, I whole heartedly believe in women's rights and the right for women to be heard, respected and feel safe.
The question I have is why if a trans women considers herself to be a woman why then the need for the trans prefix, the same for trans men.
I am offended by being called cis, I am a woman if trans women are also women why does the Trans part matter so much.
I feel that you should be who you are however I don't accept that 'people' menstruate and I stand with JK Rowling on this. I am not transphobic, phobic suggests I have a fear or an aversion neither of which is true.
How do I begin to stand up for women's rights, where do I begin in educating myself further?
