Be feminine, not fat, and have a vagina. All of those requirements make me a monster to someone.

Right? Not sure how people are supposed to "treat people the way they want to be treated" when the line is always moving and often so contradictory.
I mean, is one really a misogynist because they don't want to sleep with a woman who has a penis and was born a man?

NO.
Although, the article accused the guy of being 'transphobic'. Which, I mean, I still disagree. He's not being prejudiced, per se, he's saying "I only sleep with people without penises" And if that's a hate crime, God help us all.

I'm 100% certain there are a lot of people who believe this is the case.

It's mental illness. It's not enough that they are allowed to live as women. They have to be
seen as women.

I just find it fascinating how we're constantly told we HAVE to accept how people feel about themselves, but those same people will tell you how wrong you are if your own personal feelings don't match theirs.

By the way, has there ever been a case where a guy married a woman without knowing the woman used to be a guy? (or vice versa) That's got to happen at some point, right?

Odd. For me, when I hear someone is transgendered is usually when all my curiosity ends.

I learned recently the VA will consider "gender affirmation" surgery.
It would be free, btw.

Trans cyclist wins another Masters championship. I feel like we had a thread about her last year, but it disappeared.
Former British Masters Champion Victoria Hood, who was unable to compete in the championship due to injury, spoke with the BBC after McKinnon’s win this week to voice her concerns.
“The science is clear—it tells us that trans women have an advantage,” Hood said. “It is excluding women and girls from their own category…it is a human right to participate in sport. I don’t think it’s a human right to identify into whichever category you choose.”

Well she's clearly bigoted and should be cancelled.

Sadly, you can't tell if Munroe is aware that the Titania account is a parady.

Titania is quoting Munroe here, not the other way around.
