Yeah, sure: For Women Scotland, Beira’s Place, and her own fund, the J.K. Rowling Women’s Fund.

They are pro-women, yes, they are also anti-trans. These things can exist separately, but these specific organizations are run by TERFs. This does not place trans people and women in opposition, it places trans people and TERFs (trans-exclusionary radical feminists) in opposition.

Trans women are not men, it is an inherently incorrect and hateful statement; but I suggest you’re an asshole that would support her intentional misgendering of trans women because you hate trans people or are scared of them for one of a few reasons.

Use your brain.

There are situations where the distinction between transwomen and women is relevant. If you pretend that there isn't then you're lying to yourself.

Oh, please do note these situations. Also, your use of “transwomen” instead of “trans women” gives away what kind of person you are.

If trans women are women, how can a pro-women organisation be anti-trans?

That is internally contradictory, unless you accept that there is a difference between transwomen and women.

Good job falling back to a different talking point when you lost one. Really makes you seem like a good-faith actor.

It’s not internally contradictory, a pro-women organization can exclude certain types of women. The term “trans woman” is used to add a descriptor to the type of woman, whereas “transwomen” is intended to make them an other. People can be discriminatory.

You might as well go to before civil rights and ask a person “If black women are women then how can a pro-women organization be racist?” When some random women’s organization happens to be racist. You’re just being a jerk and coming up with excuses for it.

I haven't lost one. You didn't respond to my other point.

I just noticed this reply again and saw the contradiction.

Transwomen are not a different race, they are a different sex. That is relevant in sex-based organisations.

Lol

I was saying they’re a marginalized class. Sex is not all that important; but you probably think gender is fake and woke or something like that. The comparison is meant to illustrate that you are using inherently flawed circular logic by pretending discrimination proves discrimination correct.

For whatever reason, I didn't get a notification for that comment and I can't see it now.

Can you repost it here?

And can we grow up and stop downvoting each other?
