it is a cosmetic change, your genes do not change.
Nobody is claiming otherwise, but “womanhood” itself is not defined by genes alone. Reiterating those points isn’t countering any real argument, it’s just signaling bigotry. “I accept trans women even though they aren’t real women” is not the accepting statement you pretend it is. Jkr started with the exact same rhetoric, and now she’s calling an Olympian who was born and raised female a man. But by all means, double down because you feel you’re technically correct and see who comes to your defense.
That is the point though, a lot of people ARE claiming otherwise, and if you say what I just said, people respond like you just did.
I didn’t say that to insult or make anyone feel any less, I said it just to state a simple fact that quite a few people deny for… Reasons? When hearing facts become bigotry for you, you’re on the wrong side of the argument, we’re living in a real world. I’m not saying that these facts make trans people any less, you do.
Yeah I know facts don’t care about my feelings, but it’s not the facts, it’s what you imply when you say them. Nobody saying 13/50 does so in an attempt to address social inequity, they say it to dogwhistle racism.
