Women are women. Men are not women. It’s pretty simple.
Man jumps up to explain in a very loud voice that this guy over here says he’s a woman so that’s all there is to it, sucks to be you.
Too bad they cut off the rest of the video as this man comes to the defense of the young woman on the stage. No: She's not like you. No woman or girl is exactly the same as any other. But we are girls and women. #TransWomenAreWomen#transgirlsaregirls. https://t.co/YQhdJzoCeX

I would agree that no woman or girl is exactly like me. I have unique DNA, my own combination of experiences, skills, and interests, and culturally implanted ideas in my head.
But I share much more in common with another woman who is substantially different in those areas than I do with a man brought up in the same way I was (which is probably no man ever, since I was brought up to get married and have babies; it didn’t work well with me). My biology is so similar to other women and girls that we are essentially the same in one reality – we are all female. Males cannot say that, at least not honestly.
