Trending & News That would depend on your definition of a "woman". If you define a woman as a person born with a reproductive system theoretically capable of giving birth to an embryo, then no, a trans person would be considered a "woman".
If you define what I described above as a "female' and make a distinction between "female and woman" because you want to bring the concept of "gender" into play, that's a different discussion.
@Berethor You asked for opinions, I gave you mine. I repeat, it depends on your definition. Yours is rather apparent, and that's fine.
@loveslongnails I am not the asker, I come back here after @Tamera952 replay.
Who fucking CARES? You just cannot let this go for some reason. If someone acts like a woman, talks like a woman, looks like a woman, and wants to be called a woman, …(regardless if he/she/they was a biological male) …that’s good enough for me! I’m gonna go ahead and roll with it—they, for all intents and purposes, to me, are women. I don’t care what they want to call themselves. It’s just a silly artifact of language, and a label. It is SO low on the totem pole of concerns for me and everyone else who’s not triggered by this.
FIRST AND FOREMOST; Trans people exist. They do. They’re few and far, but they do. They are human beings just the same. What they want, what’s best for them, and what works in that situation, is not up to me. It doesn’t affect me. They should be able to call themselves whatever the fuck they want.
They should call themselves a cat, why not? everything is "just a label" after all. :)

Gag is being as transphobic as ever. You can define words how ever you want. Women, man, they are just labels, and when you focus to much on labels you miss the point.
Next time you're in the hospital, just let them know to inject you with whatever. It's just labels after all.
@seeyounexttuesday What a horrible comparison. We aren't talking about injecting you with things. We are talking about what clothes you wear and what pronouns to use
So I just need to put on a suit and I can be the President of the US?
@seeyounexttuesday I mean the people who made the country just labeled them selves as the government. One of the reasons the British denied the declaration of independence was because it was just signed by a bunch of random people. There was a declaration of dependence signed by another group. Life is really just what you believe.
There was a guy who declared himself the emperor of america. Well he obtained no official power he did manage to create him self an office and people called him the emperor.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emperor_Norton
Great! Can you send me your address as well. I'm going to label myself as your husband and come in for dinner. Plus I hope tonight is business time.
@seeyounexttuesday You love making comparisons that make no sense. No one is saying you have to do anything. I don't even think you need to call trans women women. You have a right to be wrong. What I'm saying is you can't just control language to define it however you like.
But if you're a man pretending to be a woman and insisting that other people call you by your "preferred pronouns" aren't they trying to control the language.
And my comparisons make complete sense. You're the one claiming that the words we use for things are irrelevant. I'm showing that you're full of shit.
@seeyounexttuesday "pretending" It's all a performance lol, but sure if you want to think that sky daddy made everything, you are free to do that. I don't think you have to do anything. Use what ever pronouns you want. And yes your comparisons are completely irrelevant. People do this all the time. They have no argument so they just make up crazy red herrings.
Nah, I'm exactly specific. Men cannot be women. So yes, there's no difference between a mentally ill man pretending to be a woman and a 5 year old pretending to be spiderman. There's no other mental delusion that we as a society are expected to indulge. We don't tell anorexics they're fat and need to keep losing weight.
@seeyounexttuesday Yet again, these are awful comparisons. Spider man isn't an identity it's a fictional character. And yet again having Anorexia is not an identity. Also you can be overweight and have Anorexia. Anorexia is an eating disorder not a weight disorder. So not only are you making bad comparisons, you don't understand the comparisons you are making.
You absolutely cannot be overweight with anorexia. At least not for long. I think I’m starting to understand why you’re so confused. You lack the basic understanding of most things.
You are the one who started off by saying words are just labels and have no meaning. Of course, then you were forced to admit that was a bullshit statement.
Just to help, here’s the definition of anorexia
An eating disorder causing people to obsess about weight and what they eat.
Anorexia is characterized by a distorted body image, with an unwarranted fear of being overweight.
Symptoms include trying to maintain a below-normal weight through starvation or too much exercise.
Medical treatment may be needed to restore normal weight. Talk therapy can help with self-esteem and behavior changes.
From Mayo Clinic and others • Learn more
@seeyounexttuesday Your own definition says you can be overweight with Anorexia. It's not common for people with Anorexia to have an overweight BMI, but it can happen. It's an eating disorder not a weight disorder. Not to mention there are many problems with BMI, but that's an aside. This is admittedly a red haring.
And yes words have no objective meaning, they are just sounds we made up meanings for. The meanings of the sounds can change drastically by who you ask. Male and female are nothing more then categories we made up. Not everyone even fits into these categories
It literally does not say you can be obese with anorexia.
If words don’t matter then just blow through stop signs.
Male and female is the exact opposite of made up. It’s science.
@emeraldsaphire it like the girl who think that she a cat, it delusional and insane.
@emeraldsaphire
Nah we don't have to specify that we are talking about actual women when we are talking about women just like we don't have to specify that we are talking about real vodka and not alcohol free vodka.
@emeraldsaphire cis women is real woman, someone born as a male is not woman.
A biological male who decides he’s a female is not a female. Wishing something to be true does not make it true. Take all the hormones and have all the surgeries. You’re still not a woman. You’re a man who is having problems coping with reality. That’s commonly known as mental health issues.
But if that is the path you choose, I could not care less. Just do not expect me to play along with your delusions.

They say they’re men because they are men. They have XY chromosomes and a penis. Kind of the definition of a boy/man. Even if they chop the penis off and put in breast implants they’re still a man, a mutalated man. If you dress up a rabbit to look like a dog it’s still a rabbit. And transwomen, born boys, who have gone through male puberty will forever have male advantages when it comes the muscle mass, bone density etc and therefore strength, stamina and so on which make them stronger and better athletes than actual women. Later in life hormone therapy (estrogen) won’t change that fact.
@Bricealan It is an infantile desire to believe that if you say something enough times, it becomes true. Liberals want to create a fantasy world that bears no relation to reality, and such magical thinking is necessary to think that their goal is possible.
Of course not. That is ridiculous. Now they are still people and should be treated well. Only if they are demanding you acknowledge them as women are they are demanding to be on girls sports teams or to demand kids transition at age 14 or stuff like that should they be directly confronted and opposed.
Yes they are men trying to be a women , what you were born as coming into this world , is what you are leaving this world , I don’t care how much someone tries to transform themselves into being the other gender , they are still the gender they were born as ,
Some people can't come to terms with the fact that some women are born with a penis. They are called hermaphrodites, and they are more common than most people think. A penis by itself does not automatically make you a man; it is not that simple.
Not quite the same. Hermaphrodites have both male and female reproductive organs.
No. A dude isn't a woman just because he claims to be one. Men and women are born with different bone structure and reproductive organs. Even modern science can't change that. All a man can do is change his outward appearance, but they can never experience growing up in a female body and becoming an actual woman.
"Trans-women" are one of three things - 1) totally cuckoo, 2) ultra gay or 3) total frauds. But they ain't women.
They maybe real women, but they are real women with physical disabilities. They shouldn't use women's bathrooms/locker rooms until they have had surgery and they shouldn't enter women's sports at all as there is not yet an effective medical way to remove all the biological differences they have which can affect their performance.
@Berethor What are the differences between men and women, are the feminists right when they say that the only non-cultural difference is organs? If they are wrong and there are deeper biological drives than why is it inconceivable that people can be born with the wrong sex organs. In other words, they are women in the brain but have male organs. Stranger births have happened there are people with three legs or tails.
@Jackblue is there a proof that men and women brain is different except for size? the sex organs are called primary sexual characteristics, I would not be calling myself a man if I was born with a vagina, I might had become a tomboy but that's it.
https://www.transgendertrend.com/brain-research/
@Berethor Well that is one source which is an activist group. Ultimately there is much about the brain we don't know but we have to accept one of two things: either the feminists are right and gender differences in things like who stays at home more are due to cultural prejudices against women, or we have to accept that gender is about more than just sex organs. If we accept the latter than we have to at least consider the possibility that the brain and sex organs are matched incorrectly in some people.
@Jackblue most women in the west are not tradwives, so why the feminists be wrong?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tradwife
Brain scans aren’t used to diagnose gender dysphoria. If people who identify as transgender have a brain that doesn’t match their body then why aren’t brain scans used to diagnose gender dysphoria?
I know not all trans women are like this but it seems lately their is too many males who suddenly calling themself trans after they have committed a crime likely cause they want to go to the women’s prison instead of male prison.
@Jackblue it interesting that you see the trans concept opposing to the feminists concept, when most feminists supports trans, the gender-critical feminism is pretty nice.
en.wikipedia.org/.../Feminist_views_on_transgender_topics
How do you mean? In the sense that there are men exist who think and pretend they are women? Yes.
But in the sense that said men thinking and pretending to be women are truly and actually women? NO!
She don't ask what they think, she asked if they real women, and yea it's clearly a no.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MlLfuwdShjg
It's just mentally ill men that's supported by mentally ill identity politics.
Woman equates with Female and Men equates with Male. Both Female and Male are defined by a person's chromosomes, XX for Female and XY for Male.
There is nothing a person can say ("Define as") that can change their chromosomes.
It doesn't matter how bad you are at being a man or what twisted delusions you feed off of, at the end of the day you're still a man. You're just a failure in life and a fucking nutter.
They men who think that they women, I would never date a trans woman as I am not gay.
No. They think that femininity and womanhood can be just reduced to a costume they put on when they feel like it. It's the ultimate disrespect to women.
Yea, and when the trans beat women at sports it's also disrespectful for women.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=URz-RYEOaig
Because they have male chromosomes which they will have from birth to death no matter what they say they are or do to physically change the appearance of their body. They will always be male.
There are two genders - a man and a woman. Anyone else who want to play their silly games - they can have it - i dont have to accept that. Same way if some adult runs around in batman custome i dont have to call him Bruce Wayne or Batman.
And they have XY chromosomes in every cell of their body except their sperm cells.
This is just a word game, and it's a waste of time. What's interesting? How do they want to be treated?
You call it by yourself it’s trans.
Why still ask?
HELL no, it's just shocking and sickening that anyone has even ask that.
@Tamera952 Of course there are. Like when they take it even further and give chemical castration drugs to children to halt puberty leaving them stunted and sterile.
Well your statement there is WAYYY out of context. I mean come on, …’stunted and sterile?’ — You act like they’re being forced upon kids, which is so not the case. They’re not doing surgery reassignment on kids.
In the instances of someone being that young enough to take advantage of puberty blockers, they’re not given without the parents consent, without being given the warnings, and without mental health support. Do they get it right all the time? -no. But I’ve always heard that if they should change their mind, it’s easy just to stop taking them and your body will revert back to default.
Also, these aren’t given out to just anyone, in a vacuum. Mental health professionals, pediatric specialists, and the American Medical Association are all in agreement that gender affirming care (whatever form that takes) and taking steps to align one’s body with one’s mind, in terms of gender is helpful and supposedly beneficial— So since they’re the ones who should know, I’m going to go ahead and trust them.
@Tamera952 no proof that men and women brains are different except for their size.
@Tamera952 Deluded woke institutions and a army of Joseph Mengeles pumping poison into children. Or, adults for that matter. Obviously the problem is on the other end up between the ears. No one is "trans" no one ever was and no one ever will be. If you think you're the opposite sex, something is wrong with your head and that's where we should be looking for a cure.
“No one is trans” what? Says you? …that’s a bold statement that you are certainly not qualified to make sir. I doubt you’ve taken the time to research this, nor have you talked to anyone trans. Just because you are ignorant and can’t get past your own incredulity, doesn’t make it so.
Furthermore, what ‘deluded woke institutions’ —? The American Medical Association? —an ‘army’ of Joseph Mengeles? That’s absurd. Think you’ve had far too much ‘‘koolaid’ for your own good. That’s a gross exaggeration and mischaracterization of what’s going on.
@Tamera952 The bottom line is you think men can turn into women. They can't , anyone who says they can is a liar or crazy.
@Tamera952 it means that the whole trans have female brain is fake, that's all.
@Berethor Umm, did you even read your response? “The whole trans have female brain is fake” —huh? Who said anything about them having a female brain? What does that even mean? And since I doubt you have anything remotely close to a medical degree, I’m going put zero credit on any medical claim you make, ok?
Trans people are not fake. They’re not joking. They’re not playing. They exist, despite your inability to comprehend that. Why or how they believe their trans is irrelevant. Their gender identity is not for you to get a say in.
@Tamera952 they might try fool him into dating them so it have an effect on us.
@Tamera952 That's happened before but that's not the only problem here. The fact is these people are not sane and what they believe is not true. It should not be tolerated in the slightest. Only the truth should be honored not delusion.
Yes, they are men no matter what they do or hormones or operations they have done. If they go to get a physical, they still need a prostate exam
no they are trans women, not real women cause if they were real women, we'd just call them women and we don't do that cause they're not.
they are men with gender identity issues who have a better time existing pretending to be a woman. that's what it is. that's why it may actually even be best to call them "women" to their face but we all know they're not.
Fuck no. Real women are born with a pussy, develop tits, menstruate, birth offspring and lactate
Women are defined by having XX chromosomes. Full stop.
If they've been surgically ridden of boy parts and have completely transitioned, they should be regarded women.
If they were real women then the term transwoman wouldn't exist.
Yup thats what makes it a man. A penis
Because they are not XXs but XY's
They are men. hope this helps.
Does calling myself a tree make me a tree?
@Tamera952 well does it?
The package tells the truth
No they are not.
No. They're men.
Yes. Also because they are men.
Hello Capt Obvious!
No never
What’s a woman?
@Tamera952 why you are calling him names? he is not serious most likely.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8zevhRN5lHI
