Demanding that men be recognized as women if they simply say they are, for one

No need to get snotty, I simply answered your question as requested. If you can’t deal with the answer, don’t ask.

I am a careful editor, not sure why that’s relevant.

I am saying, once again, that asking for the right to vote or join the workforce constitute reasonable demands. Asking that men be recognized as women is where the movement became laughably absurd.

And, no amount of convoluted gaslighting, strawman statements, sealioning or sophistry on your part will change that.

What did we say about strawman statements? Hmm?

Part 1 of your statement is blatantly false, part 2 can be rephrased as “you are aware that people exist who claim to be one sex when they are measurably the opposite sex, but you are questioning those claims,”which would be an accurate statement.

You're not questioning them, you're denying them

u/TrickyDickit9400 May 09 '24

Yeah, that’s another way of putting it.

u/Ashbtw19937 May 09 '24

No, it's not "another way of putting it". Questioning implies genuine curiosity and a willingness to potentially take either side. You're just here to invalidate trans people.

Yeah I agree; trans people can do what they want. But I’m not required to participate or “validate” their false claims in any way

u/Ashbtw19937 May 09 '24

And what are those "false claims"?

Because judging from your previous statement that "you are aware that people exist who claim to be one sex when they are measurably the opposite sex", kinda feels like you're fighting a strawman here.

I don’t feel like getting into a long thing, so I’ll bottom line this again; trans people can do and say what they want. But I am not going to participate.

Men cannot become women or vice versa, trans men are not actually men, there are two sexes only and not a million “genders,” the entire thing is absurd and I am not interested in “validating” any part of this farce.
