I'm currently engaged in a debate on trans issues and concepts around sex/gender on another forum (US based). I've been dealing with two main protaganists, one male, one female (neither of them trans people as faras I know), and so far I've had the following statements put to me by one or both of them which just boggle the mind:
^A transwomen is female and has always been female even before they identified as such.
DNA and chromosomes are not the deciding determinate of what differentiates male from female.
If the boxing heavyweight champion, Anthony Joshua, were to identify as a transwoman, he should be allowed to fight against a female heavyweight boxer and such a fight would be fair and evenly matched.
75% of all rapes occur by someone known to the victim, so a strange male in a woman's changing room is less of a threat.^
I'm not even angry, just dumbfounded.
