I see this argument and comment more and more the last few weeks and hugely over the last 3 days.

For example:

https://www.reddit.com/r/transgenderUK/comments/1k1tliv/trans_women_are_biological_women/

This statement, and the comments underneath it absolutely baffle me.

The approach, one that I am sure will only work with a minority of the people who said TWAW, is to undermine the definition of words, yet again, and deliberately cloud the water when it comes to speaking clearly and using terms that everyone agrees with

I have seen it said in more places than Reddit however, and by respected people

Just because they say something, doesn't make it true!

But we don't have to entertain this anymore. Lots of people say things that are incorrect.

I saw a clip on YouTube of a young man saying he was a woman and he was obviously biological because he was a human, so therefore he was a biological woman. You can't argue against that level of stupid, perhaps he'll grow out the ignorance.

Bewildering. They may identify as women, and choose to present themselves as such, but they are not and can never be biologically female.
But what does 'present themselves' even mean?
Does anyone try to say that a women who chooses to wear only trousers and rugby tops with short hair and no make up is presenting themselves as man? Of course not, they're just choosing to wear what they like and feel comfortable in. This whole expectation to label yourself one way or another is unnecessary, IMO.

The law says otherwise so they are going to have to reframe their trauma and get over it, and catch up with the pace bloody dinosaurs

They're not though. They're men.
No debate to be had. Don't get drawn into the nonsense that tries to say otherwise.
