@saoirse31

Totally off topic but being a CIA woman sounds so much more fun than a (cis) woman...... 🤪

Many of us have raised points to femenist4 and either been ignored or called transphobic.
Still no explanation as to how a trans woman can fully understand and appreciate issues they cannot physically experience because they don't have the anatomy to do so.

Still no explanation of how predatory men are going to be prevented abusing the self ID law to gain legal access to women (which will include transwomen) to do them harm.

I wonder if anyone can actually answer these questions sensibly and thoughtfully without just shouting transphobe and bigot at the person asking? I've yet to see the former.

Hahaha Labour are fucked aren't they?

They are so out of the loop of what actual normal people living and working in the real world think and experience.

They are an irrelevance with all this nonsense.

"Still no explanation as to how a trans woman can fully understand and appreciate issues they cannot physically experience because they don't have the anatomy to do so."

Its because fundamentally and sadly, women and girls are STILL not seen as real actual people with our own perspective experiences etc. We are what men say we are, our experiences are what men tell us they are. We do not really exist as actual independent beings in the same way that men do.

Male pelvis is solid, no join.

Sorry, that's inaccurate. We all have a pubic symphysis, because of the symmetrical way in which the bodily structures form. It is a cartilagenous joint between the two halves of the pelvis.

The determination of sex in skeletons is only possible once the male or female has reached adolescence or adulthood. Sexual dimorphism is slight in pre-adolescent children so this is a difficult task to perform if the skeleton is that of what might be a child.

The TRA position is faith-based. You either believe or you are cast into the nether regions of hell for eternity don't.

That's what I thought so am always happy for someone who knows more than I do to weigh in. Thank you!

Thanks to everyone for their comments on the skeleton thing. Proves my point - a transwoman’s skeleton would be identified as being male and no amount of “feelingz” will change that.
