That's implying that I do not consider myself a feminist. However, essentially my argument is that trans women should be included in the feminist movement because they want to be accepted as women, while trans men want to be accepted as men and repeatedly calling them women and saying that they're women and will always be women and that they're not men is damaging to them. |
"That's implying that I do not consider myself a feminist."
you cannot be a feminist while simultaneously denying the biological basis for being a woman/female for obvious reasons
first off, biological men obviously do not have to contend with the same biological issues women do... so to reject the biological basis you instantly trivialize those issues that are rooted in biology
secondly you essentially erase women as a category since any man at any time can identify as a woman which obviously destroys the distinguishing line between the two
now i don't see how someone can rationally claim to advocate for women while at the same time erasing the boundary between men and women that makes women a distinct group... its absolutely nonsensical and jaicee realises this and that is why she rejects the idea that a biological male can simply become a woman through identifying as one
