Define: woman

Someone who Identifies as a woman.

Are you actually seriously saying this? Do you realize what this means? I'll lay it out for you:

Woman = Someone who identifies as a woman

Therefore:

Woman = Someone who identifies as someone who identifies as a woman

Therefore:

Woman = Someone who identifies as someone who identifies as someone who identifies as a woman

This will go on forever and never reach a conclusion. The statement is meaningless.

Wit? It's the most basic logic. The problem is people who are so irrational that they will simply overlook things like this and try to uphold nonsensical ideologies.

Well since you know so much about biology; what is a man?

its not a feeling, or identity.

woman, as in human female? is an individual with xx chromosome and is typically capable of giving birth to an offspring.

some trans people say you can be a woman if you change your demeanor, clothing, makeup, do a plastic surgery. well, you can't, you see doing all that is a trick, an illusion. sure you can appear as a woman, but it doesn't mean you'll ever be one. because you can't have birth, and that is the core thing for being a woman.

am i wrong?

is being a woman a social construct or a biological thing?

because it is arguable that you could identify as a woman in certain crowds, but as soon as you go to a hospital when you're sick, you're going to have to tell the doctor your 'true gender' or they cannot treat you.

i don't think anyones willing to die on that hill when it comes to sickness. you have to be treated to get better. at that point your identity is secondary, and your well being the primary.

i mean when i think about a woman personally, i think about my mother, my grandmother. they gave birth to alot of people and raised alot of people. i don't think being a woman is about only looking like a woman or being feminine. its much more.

you understand what i'm getting at? like i can wear a red cape and blue latex suit, but it doesn't mean i'm a superman, i can feel like a superman too but it still doesn't mean i'm a superman. because i'm not capable of doing what the superman does.

I've never talked to a trans person who believes they are, on a biological level, a woman. I think they are generally quite aware of this.

By the way, I wouldn't say being able to give birth is the core thing of being a woman. The core thing of being a (biological) woman is having two x chromosomes. Nothing more or less. There are quite a lot of health problems that can result in a woman being infertile; they are still women.

Yeah, I think trans people are generally aware of this as well. There are unique risk factors for biological men and vice versa.
