Keep it real.

I'm a woman. All woman.
I've given birth to my children and breastfed them. I have periods.
I'm no stunner but I think I'm attractive.
I believe women around the world have a right to argue for their women's rights.
Men pretending to be women (let's face it, it's what it really is) shouldn't even begin to think they're anywhere near being a real woman until they've done the above three things in my post.

By all means disagree if you wish, however biological makeup are facts.
That you cannot deny.

Acknowledged that you are a woman and proud of it. That is great.

Also acknowledged that there are important differences between the experiences of trans women and cis women (like you).

BUT... trans women are not "pretending". They feel deep inside that they are not men, but women. Many of them go through hell to get to the point of self-acceptance and societal acceptance as who they know themselves to be -- if they get there at all.

[quote]shouldn't even begin to think they're anywhere near being a real woman until they've done the above three things in my post.[/quote] So are the many women who have never given birth, and the many women who have given birth but did not breastfeed their children, not women either?

Also what do your looks have to do with anything? Are women you would consider unattractive, not women?

Why not be more welcoming?
