There is no such thing as & #39;& #39;feels like a woman& #39;& #39;.
I& #39;m a woman when I& #39;m happy, when I& #39;m angry, when I& #39;m drunk, when I& #39;m horny. I& #39;m a woman when I& #39;m being a dick to people, when I& #39;m sanding furniture, when I& #39;m baking carrot cakes. 1/

I& #39;m a woman when I& #39;m solving riddles, when I& #39;m playing the X-Box, when I run myself a bath. I& #39;m a woman when I think & #39;& #39;hey, I need to buy lightbulbs& #39;& #39; and when I wrestle my tits into a too-tight swimming costume. 2/
I was an almost-woman when I thought & #39;& #39;Jesus, I& #39;ve sliced a chunk of skin off!& #39;& #39; the first time I shaved my legs. I was an almost-woman when my female body was raped, when I was drugged. I was an almost-woman when I had my abortion. 3/
I was an almost-woman when I first realised I couldn& #39;t run down the street without a bra because adult men would make disgusting remarks. 4 /
My feelings, my thoughts change constantly. Regardless, they& #39;re all encased in a female body. The actions all performed by it - a woman& #39;s body. A body the world reacts to as female, and always has. A body the world has treated as a woman& #39;s body since I was an almost-woman. 5/
The feelings and thoughts and actions don& #39;t make me a woman. The woman part came first. 6 /
For a man, someone who has lived their life from birth in a male body, being treated as a male, to say he & #39;& #39;feels like a woman& #39;& #39; is one of the most disgusting things possible. It& #39;s beyond the pale. It& #39;s another punch in the gut, another insult, another degrading remark. 7 /
Just another violation in a long line of violations women face. Another bit of gaslighting. Another man trying to sneak into my head and tell me how I feel, how I should act, that he knows me better than I know myself.
And I, frankly, won& #39;t stand for it. 8/
