So very important for all sides.

Just wanted to continue this interesting and somewhat "provocative" debate

If you're born a male, you're a male.
If you're born a female, you're a female.

You can try and change it all you want. But you were born a certain way, and that's what you are. You can even adapt to a certain degree.

But scientifically, you are what you are. You cannot argue with scientific fact.

I mean legally they're not women. What makes a man a woman? It just doesn't make any sense to me.

If someone feels they are female and wish to follow some typical female behaviours I’m happy for them. As long as womens right to safety and ability to thrive in society is not affected.

What are typical female behaviours?

WhereIsMyJumper · 19/04/2025 16:27

Nope.
Transwomen are Transwomen.

@SleeplessInWherever

"I don’t have the emotional capacity, or energy, to be “very sad”"

I hear you, life is busy, stressful, hard.

Some things, though, are worth the debate and your head space, or not?

I do, respect your point of view either way @SleeplessInWherever

What makes them women given they are biologically and legally men?

Oh, yawn.

They aren’t women but they’re entitled to act like one (or their stereotype of one)
if they like.

Or womanface

”Transwomen” were never women, so your statement makes no sense.

senua · 19/04/2025 16:19

"Trans women are still women"
Never were. Never will be.

I'd love to hear an answer to this. The defining feature is that they're men.

Can't people just use one of the other half dozen threads on exactly the same subject.

But where will everyone pat each other on the back!

They are not, and never have been.

Theres no need to keep hashing out the same old shite that’s on every other thread - time to leave it now.

Surely once a thread has got to 1000 posts everything has been said and the discussion can come to a natural end...
