This sums up the whole problem with transgender ideology.
The second that you start using 'woman' or 'girl' or 'she' to describe a human, purely based on the fact that human wears lipstick/dresses/nail varnish/heels, you immediately perpetuate the stereotype that those things are only for females.
Yes! Exactly, Jetatyeovilaetodrome. There is no transgenderism without regressive, restrictive stereotypes, which harm everyone, but female people most of all.
When you say certain clothes, looks, feelings, ways of behaving or thinking(!) etc are only for women, or only for men, you reinforce those stereotypes, and Izzard is currently doing that with a vengeance. Another concrete way he’s oppressing women and girls.
The fact that so many men these days “identify as” women doesn’t tell us that they are in fact any kind of woman whatsoever; obviously, it just tells us that the attributes they see as “womanly” are not confined to women but are in fact shared by many men.
(And actually not shared by all women, because the only thing that unites us, and differentiates us from the only other form of human beings, men - is our shared biology, our reproductive class. Whether that biology is functional or not, yadda yadda.)
It tells us there is an infinite variety of ways to be a man, just as there is an infinite variety of ways to be a woman.
This is one of those things that’s so utterly, blindingly, gobsmackingly obvious - like the need to safeguard vulnerable children in a humane society - that you can barely believe the opposite could ever have gained any credence.
Yet here we are.
