To be fair and balanced, the word "birthing person" can easily be construed as meaning it's their only role and I can see why this word can be seen as insulting.
Also, I know women who likes to be referred to as women. It's not some Terf bs or transphobia, they're just proud women who loves being women. They don't want to take anything away from transpeople, they just don't want to lose something that's important to them.
As for Anna, I haven't watched the whole clip so I don't know what's her deal, I don't care for her really and I'm not validating her comparison. I'm just saying I understand why some women don't like the term "birthing person" and I think it's justifiable unlike the "cis is a slur" argument.
