If women don’t do what you like
Stella Creasy now:
Stella Creasy is clarifying her position on the word ‘woman’. “Do I think some women were born with penises? Yes”, she declares. “But they are now women and I respect that.”
…
Surely, as a fellow feminist, she and JK Rowling aren’t too far apart on the issue? “No, I don’t agree with her and I’m told I am a bad feminist because I take a different view,” she reveals.
Her “different view” being that men are women if they say they are.
“JK Rowling doesn’t support self-identification whereas I do. Of course biological sex is real – it’s just not the end of the conversation. I am somebody who would say that a trans woman is an adult human female. I would say that you and I were adult human females.”
But a trans woman is not an adult human female, he’s an adult human male. That’s what the words mean. Self-identification doesn’t change reality.
Incredible how a person can be so right and so wrong at the same time. Just like all religions, Trans melts the brain’s ability to see reality if it means losing faith.
Why can’t people accept that I am what I say and believe I am? In my case, a giraffe.
I first read this as ‘hollow feminist’ and dammit, I stand by it.
Also, she doesn’t know what female means.
Some call her a bad feminist? I’d call her not a feminist.
Just sayin’.
Well that’s the trouble with self-ID… Lots of MAGA chuds identify as conservatives but they’re more like weird socialists.

MAGAs are like socialists, of any kind, in what way? They look much more like fascists to me. They don’t share anything with anyone.

This doublethink is everywhere now, and it fascinates me.
Near as I can tell, people get there by thinking of “sex” as a bunch of organs and physical traits that don’t have any particular relationship to each other. A penis is just an appendage some people happen to have. A uterus is an internal organ some other people happen to have. These parts and certain others comprise “sex,” for some reason or other. Of course sex is real–these parts are real! It has nothing to do with whether or not anyone’s a woman or a man. That’s about your
soulinternal sense of gender, which has nothing to do with what parts you have. Oh look, a squirrel.
