I know this is an old thread re-surfacing and the poster may be long-gone, but the naivety(/ privileged arrogance?) of the above is infuriating to read.
On the very same page of posts as AlphaTransWoman's claim right now is:
BMJ: Women’s health needs beyond sexual, reproductive, and maternal health are missing from the government’s 2024 priorities
Biological women are dying because their physical needs aren't recognised, let alone prioritised, by our predominantly male political representatives. Any woman - the old-fashioned kind - in this game for any length of time knows this (any one else: read "Invisible Women" and come back to me).
The very fact that AlphaTransWoman says that sex isn't relevant to political representation is, itself, the best evidence possible for how very important it actually is.
Especially because, if we assume AlphaTransWoman's username reflects their identity, their statement here demonstrates precisely why accepting transwomen in PLACE of women to represent women's interests actually undermines those interests. Because AlphaTransWoman at best fails to understand and, at worst, actively denies, those interests.
I find what's happening right now so very frightening. How little we're worth; how little we're noticed, understood & valued. I'd never dreamt it could come to this.
Somewhere between furious & terrified.
Feeling it today, and the combination of posts explored above really upsets me.
