    Which laws and can you give me a source for what she said?

    I’m not sure why she feels that that phrase is an attack on women, you’d have to ask her.

    Although her point from looking online in that instance was that the word women should be used, because you know, only women menstruate.

    Again, I asked what has she said about trans people? To the points you’ve brought up it seems that she is advocating for women, not against trans people.

    I’m happy to be shown that she hates trans people but as of yet I haven’t received anything she actually said about trans people that was negative…

      Of course. “Yes it talks like a duck, but we can’t be sure if that’s actually a quack or just a noise that happens to sound exactly like a duck.”

      I asked what has she said about trans people?

      What do you think being upset about the phrase “people who menstruate” says about trans people? In what world does using the phrase “people who menstruate” instead of “women” harm women? It’s a more precise term, because not all women actually menstruate. Prepubescent girls and post-menopausal women do not menstruate. Are they not women?

      “That whistle is broken. Yes, everytime you blow it all the animals near by seem to react, but neither of us actually heard anything so clearly it’s not a whistle.”

        So no actual quotes or sources of trans hate from her then?

        Just a point that has nothing to do with trans people.

          If you cover your ears and close your eyes I guess you can convince yourself her complaints about the term “people who menstruate” has nothing to do with Trans People, but in reality that argument is disingenuous as fuck.

            The connection in this instance seems clear, but it seems from her point of view that she’s arguing for the rights of cis women, does one person’s rights trump anothers?
