*Oh for fuck sake
SOME PEOPLE WHO WERE BORN FEMALE BUT IDENTIFY AS MALE STILL GET PERIODS.
I cannot believe the transphobia on this website. Let's hope none of your children have gender dysmorphia. You'll change your tunes then.*
As PPs have said, shouting, trying to shame us and call us transphobic isn't an argument. It's just wanting to be on the right-on side without thinking it through.
There is a real, reasoned, important argument behind why women are upset about the category of "woman" being redefined and erased. If a transwoman is a woman, and anyone who wants to call themselves is a woman, then there is not longer any sensible category called "women". I'm a women because I'm an adult human female, not because I feel like a woman. If anyone can be a woman, then actual women can no longer have safe spaces away from men/penises - which includes not just toilets but changing rooms, prisons, refuges, hospital wards, hostel dorms, and on and on. And actual women can no longer win at all at most sports, because every sport will be dominated by trans women. A whole class of "people" will be shafted and won't even be able to complain about it because the law won't recognise the actual basis on which they are shafted - their female biology.
I am sick to death of being told I'm obsessed with genitals and what's between people's legs. No I'm not and that is such a pathetic straw man argument. I care about what's between people's legs when it has a bearing on their experiences, suffering and risk and if you are an actual woman, it does (and I include trans men in that).
If trans men (or any woman who declares she's a man) go in male spaces, who's most at risk? The women. If trans women (or any man who declares he's a woman) go in female spaces, who's most at risk? The women. Because of biology - they are generally smaller weaker and have vaginas that make them vulnerable to attack my male-bodied people.
And if my child is gender dysphoric I'll encourage them to express "gender" anyhow they like, because gender is just a range of cultural expression that's all open to anyone, and doesn't need to have anything to do with your sex. It's only mindbogglingly old-fashioned views that say liking skirts, make-up and stereotypes girliness = you must be a woman, and vice versa. And millions of gender-nonconforming people have been demonstrating that since before you were born.
