"What is it like to be a woman?" is a better question. Why?
Women's experience of being women is different to a man's experience of perceiving women as they are and then imagining himself what it would be like for him if he were a woman.
The former experience is authentic, organic and immediate while the latter is esentially and always inauthentic, derivative, full of misconstrued and misunderstood 'as ifs", of male perceptions of what it is like to be woman.
Says the man adamant about what a woman is. Oh. The irony. Seriously, you can't make this stuff up. I can see you didnt understand any of it. Do you think your idea of what it is like to be a man is the same as a man's idea of what it is like to be a man, given the obvious difference between a woman's perception and a man's. Don't tell me you do not see the obvious. And clearly you have just demonstrated that you have no idea at all what Trans even is. Rail on in your ignorance, old man. For all of it's futility. Do you think your idea of what it is like to be a man is the same as a man's idea of what it is like to be a man, given the obvious difference between a woman's perception and a man's? I think my idea of what it's like to be a man is as nebulous as yours. For example, i'm very empathetic to my male friends, my son and my husband, my father and uncles. None of which are anything like you. So i think i've a better idea of what being a man of worth is than you. Does that count? So trans women are men, not real women like you? Or are they real women like you and your mum? Would your son, husband etc regard them as real women like they regard you and your mum, cock no object? Really?? What diseased, decaying matter do you use for a mind? How did you get that from what i said? Something seriously happened to you. Yeah - I haven't lost my mind to absurd paradoxes, that's what happened, or rather didn't happen to me. You say that your idea and my idea - and your son's and husband's - of what is a man and what is a woman are nebulous - but trans women are real women like you and your mum because trans women's idea of what is a woman is NOT nebulous. THEIR idea of what a woman is must be accepted as indisputable and real while ours must be treated as nebulous. You problematise the normal (call it nebulous) in order to normalise the problematic (trans women are just like real women). But you do not see that your insistence that transwomen are real women simply grants them a place among those with undefined, nebulous status (women) but which, nevertheless, you insist on being NOT nebulous but real, but only for transwomen. For all other - you, me, your son, husband - it is all nebulous, hazy, indeterminable etc. Only transwomen are on solid ground when it comes to knowing what a woman is (themselves), everyone else is at a loss in the face of this latest great mystery. This is full blown paranoia. So trans women's idea of their own identity as women is as nebulous as your own? Or are they on firmer ground than you as they know that they are real women like you and your mum? You, a woman, see what a woman is through mist (nebulous) but a transwoman sees it clearly and he is a confident, REAL woman, not a misty mystery like you are to your self-conception. Uncovering the absurdity is not paranoia, mother.
