Birthing bodies
The discussion is lively.
Yes, and when Woman’s Hour discusses rape do they make sure to include plenty of rapists? When Woman’s Hour looks at harassment and abuse of women do they invite enough abusers for balance?

Every time a trans woman is included, a woman is excluded.
A feature not a bug.
“Black birthing bodies” (ugh) is analyzed in this podcast: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ol8krO5SSdc&t=4595s
Trans women are women. You’re not allowed to “check their genitals”. So, how do you know there were no trans women?
Roj, if they were trans women they would be constantly talking about their being trans. Funny, isn’t it, that if we remind them that they weren’t born in women’s bodies it’s causing them to commit suicide, but they constantly talk about being trans, and I think that most of them still believe that “transwoman” means “woman born not in a woman’s body”.
And of course they claim it is discussing trans issues, when it is actually discussing women’s issues. Trans issues and women’s issues are vastly different things, though trans issues tend to intersect with women’s issues in a negative way.
What’s with calling people “bodies” lately? That’s so gross and weird.
Pretentious black lit major starts saying it -> the intelligentsia adopt it and spread it everywhere.
@7 It’s objectification. Objectifying women is anti-feminist; it’s the exact opposite of feminism.

It’s plain old decoupling bodies from ‘souls’, all the better for men to appropriate the bits they want (spinny skirts, masturbating in women’s toilets, oppression play-acting) and forgoing they bits they don’t (actual oppression, lower pay, childbirth).
