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.

    I agree, you don't see the reverse happening with men where in men's health they're referred to as "people who produce sperm" or "penis havers". It's only the reverse happening to women.

    I refuse to use any of those silly terms the younger crowds are using. It feels degrading. XD

    Those people are extremely misogynistic and backwards-striving.
    Claiming that referring to women is transphobic is brainwashing made by extreme self hating pick-me's and misogynistic men who hide behind politics. It's absolute shit. Same as apparently not being a traditionally feminine woman means you're not a woman in this day and age. It's like back in the time of the sufragettes all over again when it was controversial for women to wear fucking pants. PANTS...
    Don't tell me that the whole fucking thing isn't an attempt at surpressing women all over again. I'm never gonna identify as anything but woman even if I felt like shaving me god damn hair off and wear nothing but ugly dull man clothes i'm still a god damn woman.

    Normal I suppose, but there's no point not calling you woman. I think I should be a Christian liberal to solve the problem, but that's at the level of structure, since some Christians like me believe in religious freedom, but I don't believe you should be a tranny. For being things religion doesn't compose itself to be people will go to hell, but I think liberalism is The ism worth following.

    It's simple, you eliminate the bullshit by questioning external rules, even though solipsism does that literally, by going to philosophy instead of rules, and liberalism does that by doing egalitarian, libertarian, and rights-based thinking.
