I know that it is hard to understand this whole being born in the wrong body thing unless you have experienced it yourself, but saying it that way kinda makes you look like assholes.

I take it you mean that "female" remark?

Look, I get that there are hardships that come along with being transgender. I don't think most reasonable people would deny that.

The problem I have, and my reason for quoting the "female" remark, is that the word has a specific definition. They're generally people/animals that have two X chromosomes and produce ova for use in reproduction. If you're born with XY chromosomes and male genitalia, you can never be a female. You can identify as a "girl," "woman," "lady," etc. all you want, but not "female."

You can't just use the word however you want and call people bigots because they won't budge on the scientific definition of that word. Not saying you, specifically, do that, but just in general.

The first few "I'm a girl..." posts were fine on their own, because "girl" is a gender identity thing. However, the topic title says "be a female on CE."
