Also, I have to wonder if anyone who actually reads webcomics was involved in the production of this, because "professional quality" (read: hyperrealistic) art is not the selling point at all even for the decidedly NSFW ones.
I’m more put-off by how it’s headed-up by two dudes… making fap-fiction… “for women”; right away that’s tone-deaf first impression (at best) - but if they’re more than just naive then I think we might have material for a Coffeezilla video right here.
Standing up for womens rights gets you labeled a TERF now. It's not exactly a bad thing to be called these days lol. Heck, even JK Rowling gets called this and shes the furthest from transphobic.
She is against womens rights being taken away. Trans people already have all the same rights as anyone else. Please name one right a trans person does not have that anyone else does
This exact same argument was used against gay marriage ("gay people can get straight married!" and interracial marriage ("anybody can marry somebody of the same race!").
If predominantly one class of person wants to do something, you can easily discriminate against them by outlawing that specific action.
In contrast, articulating the "women's rights" that are being hurt by trans rights usually end up in an awkward formulation like "the right to have a place in which they won't see somebody they think is a man."
So again, what right do trans people not have? They can get married. It's very easy to articulate the womens rights that are being violated lately. Simply talk to any women in the real world
Losing access to single sex spaces (bathrooms, prisons, sports leagues, etc). Men are statistically more violent than women and you are suggesting we should just let them freely into womens spaces. This is why they have fought for their own spaces
In the UK: access to GnRHa hormone blockers during childhood. Routinely prescribed for precocious puberty in cis kids, yet literally illegal to prescribe to trans kids.
Because, you see, after excluding all studies not carried out in the UK, restricting to studies on trans kids, and then individually discarding the studies that remain, there's no evidence of safety. In fact, there's no evidence at all! Further research is needed before we feed experimental drugs to our vulnerable children. (We have to pass an emergency prohibition about this, because those meddling "doctors" won't listen. https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2024/727/made)
Cis kids are… biologically different, somehow? So the studies demonstrating safety and efficacy apply just fine to them. Yeah, that's totally the reason: medical necessity. Not politically-motivated discrimination against a protected minority, no siree.
I'm not sure what you are arguing, but yes, unless a clear medical emergency the science definitely says kids should not be taking puberty blockers. Nearly every country is cracking down on giving them to kids (trans or not)
You just cited the report that the poster above you referenced as cherry-picked, which is rather amusing!
Regardless, and it's anecdata -- but everyone I know who is working in the fields of medicine on the subjects the cass review covers, have pointed out numerous critical flaws in it that undermine every single point it makes. It's actually somewhat worse than if you got a PDF paper from Natural News dot com, a site that I discovered in the mid 2010s was rehosting and editing medical papers to say whatever they wanted.
Something to consider: when you remove the female body from the definition of woman, what else remains besides sexist feminine stereotypes?
More to the point, when a male says he identifies as a woman, what exactly is he identifying with? You can't identify with a organs you don't have, so what could he actually be identifying with, if not sexist feminine stereotypes?
And how is it progressive to say that a man who identifies with feminine stereotypes is a woman? Is it not more progressive to say that a man who identifies with feminine stereotypes is simply a feminine man?
> Something to consider: when you remove the female body from the definition of woman, what else remains besides sexist feminine stereotypes?
Any definition of woman that includes all cis women must include all trans women, or will otherwise include trans men.
Fertility? Many women are infertile.
Chromosomes? There is at least one genetic line of women in the world where they were all identified at birth as women and have each given birth, but have XY chromosomes. Anecdotally, many universities have had to stop genetics students from testing themselves for their chromosomes as a fun thing to do on the weekend, because the incident rate of chirality is MUCH higher than you would otherwise expect.
Any other such metrics either end up becoming pure phrenology or excluding massive amounts (millions) of women.
Moreover, trans women do not "identify with female stereotypes" and they are often most often strongly aligned with cis women who break stereotypes, cis women who are also largely targeted by the bathroom bills you are in favour of. The science says that being transgender isn't purely social and cannot be fixed through therapy, please avail yourself of the cult[0] that you are a part of.
I mean, the first "slashfic" (smut fiction starring two popular characters) was Kirk/Spock slashfic written in the 1960s by a woman. The majority of writers on AO3 are women or enbies.
