She can't understand, nor will she ever understand, the threat to women's reproductive rights or specific aspects of women's health that are always major issues at these protests.


these are not the full and exclusive purposes of the womens' marches, even if they are a major element of them

and sure, she doesn't ever run the risk of needing an abortion--but she is married to a woman and is capable of listening.

i do not agree with the view that because someone does not personally suffer from a problem they 'cannot understand' the problem from others' viewpoint

yea but if all your trans friend can do is listen to and empathize with women, how does that provide any differentiation from a straight cisgender man? a straight married man can listen to his wife and empathize with her, but does that instantly mean that his position is inherently more important to the cause?
