This is so dramatic, I've never been told I can't call myself a woman & no one's given you shit for just saying "I'm a woman" either.
Ppl give you shit when you start saying that all ppl who have a body like yours *must* accept being called women too, which is what GCs often do. https://twitter.com/VictoriaPeckham/status/1320047787619340289

And the fact that so many of them conflate being criticized for trying to dictate how other ppl speak abt themselves & being shit on for proclaiming their own individual reality, shows the level of intellectual dishonesty they're on.
Being able to label yourself a woman is your right. Making other ppl use the word "woman" to describe anyone & everyone w/ a similar body to yours is not a right lol.
You don't have the right to say that trans men have to accept this term for themselves.

GCs love saying "we're not trans-exclusive, our feminism includes trans men"
Then they'll proceed to pile-on any brand, org. or individual who makes effort to be less alienating to trans men.

Imagine how y'all spam any trans man & non-binary person you see talking abt their periods in a way that's comfortable to them w/ "only xx vagina womb having women bleed" then turn around & manipulate the situation as, "we can't call ourselves women anymore :/" lmaooo
