bigoted
/ˈbɪɡətɪd/
Bigoted describes holding strong, unreasonable prejudices, often showing intolerance toward different opinions, races, religions, or lifestyles.
While I see that trans people see her views as an attack on them, of course she seems to believe that there is an attack on women’s rights.
Also I’m not sure you could really see her views as unreasonable, prejudicial, or intolerant.
She seems to have only advocated for women’s rights, and changes that she sees as damaging to those rights.
Could you point me towards something negative she’s said about trans people themselves? As most of the hate seems to be reflexive, by that I mean that when she supports women’s rights that is seen as an attack on trans people, I am struggling to see that as her intent thought?
Which laws and can you give me a source for what she said?
I’m not sure why she feels that that phrase is an attack on women, you’d have to ask her.
Although her point from looking online in that instance was that the word women should be used, because you know, only women menstruate.
Again, I asked what has she said about trans people? To the points you’ve brought up it seems that she is advocating for women, not against trans people.
I’m happy to be shown that she hates trans people but as of yet I haven’t received anything she actually said about trans people that was negative…
I’m not sure why she feels that that phrase is an attack on women, you’d have to ask her.
Of course. “Yes it talks like a duck, but we can’t be sure if that’s actually a quack or just a noise that happens to sound exactly like a duck.”
I asked what has she said about trans people?
What do you think being upset about the phrase “people who menstruate” says about trans people? In what world does using the phrase “people who menstruate” instead of “women” harm women? It’s a more precise term, because not all women actually menstruate. Prepubescent girls and post-menopausal women do not menstruate. Are they not women?
“That whistle is broken. Yes, everytime you blow it all the animals near by seem to react, but neither of us actually heard anything so clearly it’s not a whistle.”
If you cover your ears and close your eyes I guess you can convince yourself her complaints about the term “people who menstruate” has nothing to do with Trans People, but in reality that argument is disingenuous as fuck.
The connection in this instance seems clear, but it seems from her point of view that she’s arguing for the rights of cis women, does one person’s rights trump anothers?
She’s coming from a place of “trans bad” then finding an excuse for it (protecting women) while completely missing the point that her argument harms cis women because she is only focusing on “trans bad” and not actually focusing on protecting women at all.
A few people have mentioned the young and old women point, I don’t quite understand that tbh. They will and have menstruated and that clearly isn’t the point she’s making.
So tbh it just seems like a straw man to discredit her position. She’s clearly referencing the point that biological men don’t menstruate and never will and so shouldn’t be included in that group
Who asked for help?
Anyway;

She has been outspoken against anti-hate speech laws that would protect trans people.
Can you please explain how a reasonable person interprets the phrase “people who menstruate” as an attack on women?

So no actual quotes or sources of trans hate from her then?
Just a point that has nothing to do with trans people.

Young women and old women aren’t cis women?
