The Wellcome Collection are doing an event about about ‘the ways that womxn are included, excluded, catalogued and classified.’
wellcomecollection.org/events/W5e9eyYAACUAMqcz

Rather than explain what womxn means, they link to the Urban Dictionary definition.
www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=womxn

If you’re using a word and aren’t sure if everyone reading will know what it means you could explain it rather than link to a site where anyone can write the definition.

IMO.

Tell you what, I’d be ok with womxxn.

That's not what the young person in question meant at all. If you said the word "epigenetics" to him his response would probably be "epipen?"

“More intersectional than womyn because it includes trans-women and women of color”

WHAT? But if women if colour are already referred to as ‘women’, as they are in tne phrase WOC, why the hell is a new word needed to replace ‘women’ in order to include women of colour?

This is the work of someone for whom logic has been replaced with lxgxc.

arranfan when Jordan ‚wouldn‘t you women be happier doing womanly things‘ Peterson is the one a feminist roots for (as did I,too, in that discussion), you know the world has gone mad.

Indeed, the phrase, "Living in strange times" doesn't cover a minim, scruple or iota of it.

Why bother with that nonsense spelling? Get rid of all the letters between W and N, that way you can make it the correct word for men in dresses - WhineymeN.
