Only biological women have uteri – though some may have had it removed. When you expand what woman is, you dilute its meaning. Abortion no longer becomes a woman’s issue because “everyone” can get pregnant. Gender ideology should be respected, but it doesn’t trump biology. Biology is real, like the earth is flat or climate change is real.

Girls in Africa/ME cannot identify out of FGM. Women who are kidnapped and trafficked can’t identify out of being used and abused. Women are discriminated, to quote RGB, on the basis of our sex.
