It utterly completely is not conveying an accurate picture, unless you’re someone who has zero idea what women’s actual lives are like from the time they’re born. Which you obviously are, thus your feeling that a cosmetic change in adulthood renders all the life preceding it null and void and immediately confers awareness of things you have no experience with.

Friend, seriously. Trust us when we tell you that a) we fully support your health and wellbeing and human rights, and that is not inconsistent with qualifying your experience as being different than our own (and also being different from that of non-transgender men!), and b) the more and more extreme efforts to insist that transwomen are exactly the same as natal women only provide more and more evidence of the opposite. Calling MtFs “women” is willful disbelief at best, lying on average, and genuinely harmful and damaging to the women you claim you’re just like at worst. You are not a woman. I am not a transwoman! I could never begin to speak on your experiences as a person, and the fact that you presume to speak on mine does not paint this in good faith on your part.
