Bwahahaha. Rich coming from someone who thinks that being trans is all about feelings.
Oh noes, don't tell me I got a participation trophy!!!! You might hurt my feelings. So original.
Fucking pathetic joke.
Because I was responding to your entirely illogical claims. Maybe if you gave me something to work with I could come up with a decent response, but since you spouted a bunch of shlock and nonsense about how transwomen really just feel like men because evolution there was nothing to do but point out how idiotic and illogical you are. I realize you don't like that, but your opinion on the matter doesn't change facts.

The fact that you're blaming me is a perfect example of how people like you work. See, nothing I say can change the supposed facts and logic you base your opinion on. All you had to do was present those facts and logical frameworks.. you being unable to do that HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ME, BUT WITH YOU (and your inability to force your boring old talking points into the conservation... you're a little more than a robot programmed by envious feminists).
I never said anything even close to that. Do you always lie so much? Do you always have to call people names to get your way? Like so many [too many] of the people who defend this stuff you act like a child throwing a tantrum. You lie, you call people names... and I can just imagine the faces you were making as you typed all that.
...and neither does yours.

Except you did.
And
You are a man or a woman because of evolution and anyone who thinks they are of a sex or gender other than what they "really" are is delusional.
You can pretend all you want that you're not denying that transwomen are women, but you are doing just that. Yes, I simplified your argument, because you can't seem to actually explain what you really mean, instead you beat around the bush until you decide to claim that trans people are just delusional. But you don't have a problem with trans people, YOU SWEAR!!!! You just think they're delusional.
