I hate that people won’t just say woman
I’m pretty damn liberal - on a scale from one to ten I’m a solid eight. For the most part if you think of a liberal view I’m in agreement with it (gay rights, access to abortion, decriminalisation of the possession of drugs, equal rights for women in every country). But the one thing in online liberal spaces that really annoys me is the refusal to say ‘woman’. Uterus haver, birthing parent, womxn, womyn, afab, clitoris owner. Just fucking say woman. The argument is that it stops trans people from feeling excluded but if that’s the case then why not just say ‘people who were born female’? I’d much rather that than be called a menstruator.
