Pretty sure they mean the bioessentialist rhetoric of gender comes from genitals at birth. It’s an absurd claim that transphobes hide behind.
I absolutely agree with you. I phrased myself badly. Women solely being people with vaginas is her view, that’s why I said it that way. She boils being a woman down to what you were born with, so when she employs “women” that’s what she means. I was (still am) very tired. I’m sorry. Trans women are women, genitals do not determine what you are.
I should have said it differently. I obviously understand that genitals do not equal gender. I’m rather tired today, and was thinking of it as like, she thinks women are people with vaginas, so when she says women(/in the case also mothers), she’s just hiding behind her genitals. I hope I explained that okay.
I’m sorry if I upset or bothered you.
Not the people you replied to, but it totally makes sense in context what you meant
