Trans women are male. Saying so isn’t bigotry. Anyway that’s not even what that person said, so it’s definitely not bigotry.
saying so is very much bigotry, no matter how much you dislike people calling you out on your bullshit
How is biological reality “bigotry”?
Male is a sex. What sex do you think trans women are?
"Biological reality" in this context is extremely bad faith wording that refuses to accept the malleability of gender.
No one is buying it.
Gender has no basis in biology or science anymore. It used to be a synonym for sex, but now it has been co-opted to mean some unverifiable “identity”.
I spoke about SEX. In regards to sex, what are trans women - male or female?
If anyone can be any gender, and can change gender as often as they want, gender means nothing and shouldn’t be used in any legislation because it can and will be abused.
I have zero interest in communicating with a transphobe
Interesting. You replied to me after a week, yet now when I pointed out the flaw in your argument you call me a transphobe and try to run away? 🤣
Nothing I said is “transphobic”. Could you please share with me what you believe was?
