If transwomen are women, and women are cis women, are transwomen cis women?

Obviously not. They're men. But how can transwomen insist on being women and then recategorise women as cis women without it exposing their whole position as fundamentally flawed?

Fed up with the air time these things are taking up.

The less we question the sooner they stop being the centre of attention and pipe down.

Look i don't disagree. But I also can't turn away from this now. It's too important.

They become cis women when their cervix grows in.

I think it takes about a year on hormone treatment. Ask India Willoughby. They know better than I.

There's no such thing as cis women

You're thinking too logically here. First rule of trans club; think illogical thoughts all day long!

Of course its utter cobblers

Why are you asking for rationality, consistency or coherency from an irrational, inconsistent, incoherent ideology?

You're making it look baaaad!

Cis is derived from the Latin “on the same side as”, Trans is derived from the Latin of “the opposite side of”

So if trans women are real women, whose sex was incorrectly assigned at birth, then once they have their sex correctly assigned they are linguistically speaking CIS.

good point.
