Re: "uncritical parroting"

I'm not saying it's *wrong*, I'm saying it's not in the category of objectively knowable fact, because "woman" is not a term that has an unambiguous measurable definition. If it does, I challenge you to provide it.

> TL;DR: as it is never appropriate to say "trans women are not women" it must indeed be a fact that "trans women are women"

That is among the most Orwellian things I have ever seen upvoted on this site. If I said that in parody, people would accuse me of insulting their position. You're *literally* saying the objective, unambiguous definition of "woman" is "whatever society decrees it is". That's the definition of a subjective term!

What the f*ck!
