    My argument with you is that women should be defined as anyone who identifies or feels like a woman.

    My opinion on gender gatekeeping is that the gender binary is heuristic nonsense and we should do away with it in general. We do not need to act as gender police or support the notion that society should police gender or self expression.

      women should be defined as anyone who identifies or feels like a woman.

      So you are prescribing it.

      I don’t respect the intention behind trying to force others to use your language. This is a large part of why the conservatives are so angry.

        Conservatives are angry because M&Ms have different boots on than they used to, I really don’t care, man.

        Lol the conservatives are angry because they are entitled dickwads being told no. And if you empathize with that, well… Kinda seems like a veiled threat to me that if I don’t cater to your stupid man feelings, you’ll put me in my place. Well, I’m a lil too intellectually dangerous for that one and youre a giant coward so whatever. The conservatives are NO where near as angry as the women. There are many simultaneous movements happening including 4B as a reaction to men’s abuse towards women. And it’s time women started to make men feel our anger. We aren’t your mommies. Women are the keeper of cultures. It’s time to flex that. Let society bend or break.

        And let’s point out that you’re the one who insists (prescribes) a basis for what a woman is other than this definition. You think society should prescribe and define gender for individuals, not the other way around.

        Yeah, I have opinions. My opinion is that the definition for woman should be the above because it is the most inclusive of all types of women. That makes it a good definition because it’s accurate.
