Terfs make no sense to me cuz u are basically reinforcing the idea that womanhood is a clear set of values and traits that you have and adhere to if you are a woman. You are literally reinforcing misogyny by excluding trans women through bioessentialism

that's the thing, they genuinely want it to be a clear set of values and traits that they can gatekeep. it's almost like a fucked up mirror image of toxic masculinity

The way they talk about women is wild too. Like they see trans women as men, and then if a trans woman is in like.. chess. They go “this MAN is competing against women and it’s unfair because men are inherently smarter than women and are always more clever and smarter and better at chess.” Like not only do they not think trans women are women, but in their “defense of women” they’re saying women are inherently weak and are the weaker sex. Which is so anti feminist.
