I’m a cisgender woman and, believe it or not, I have a natural beard. I suspect there are more women like me than you think, it’s just most of them shave more. I’m not afraid of being assaulted in a public bathroom by a man pretending to be a woman, I’m afraid of being assaulted in a public bathroom by a transphobe accusing me of being a man
internet conservatives get upset if a woman has a light peach fuzz in a videogame cover.
they don’t need an excuse to target women.
one of the best things about being a guy is that my beard keeps me face warn through the winter. I hope you enjoy doing so as well

The whole thing is about controlling women in essence. These people try to define what a proper woman is; how they should look and act, how they should be, and then enforce that over everyone. Bathroom laws are a good example, as is accusing all athletes that don’t fit petite feminine stereotype being trans as well. These demands of “proper” will also get more and more narrow if they get foothold. Don’t want to wear dresses and make up? Too hairy, too tall? Too loud, too smart? Too bad, you’re not a woman and deserve to be assaulted.
Any woman, trans or cis, supporting any form of transphobia is shooting themselves in the leg. Especially terfs are asinine since they’re even pretending to be for women’s rights while simultaneously doing their best to eradicate them

It’s so hypocritical. They say you’re objectively male or female and that there is no grey area and then they start saying cis women, with vaginas and XX chromosomes, aren’t women?

Yes! Makes no fucking sense. Transwomen are men when it’s convenient, but these people sure as hell won’t actually consider them as men either since even feminine cis-men are mocked and called women by a lot of this crowd… I guess the whole argument would actually be “there’s only men and women!! And these other things that aren’t even people” if they were honest
