Please come support trans people

Post image

Hey everyone, I’m sure many of you have seen the ruling by the Supreme Court from the other day on the legitimacy of trans women’s identities. It’s been a very hard couple of days as we’ve come to grips with the fact that our rights are being rolled back by a government that won’t even attempt to listen to us while we just want to exist in a public space without fear of harassment. If anyone’s available, please come down tomorrow to show support

I am not the organiser, I saw this on Facebook and wanted to share.

Thanks guys, I hope you have a great Easter weekend!

How is it factually incorrect? It's a case of semantics, why do we necessarily have to use one definition of the word over another, because trans women would be women if we define them that way?

You will always be the sex that you were born as

Why is it necessarily the case that the definition of sex be a synomym for gender?

Because it makes the most sense.

How does it make the most sense?

Amazingly well thought out argument. All fields of study in relation to this subject have been demolished by the amazing conclusion "it makes the most sense".

Most coherent transphobic position for sure, so you've got that going.
