Bien sûr

Of course. Of course some horses are tigers. Of course some cars are hammers. Of course some trees are daffodils. Of course some people are witches. Of course we can just announce that words now mean something new and absurd and order everyone to agree with us on pain of banishment.

    There you have it! Womanhood is a NIGHTCLUB. And terfs are meanies trying to keep some women from entering!

    This isn’t the first time I’ve seen a man define womanhood as some kind of club. But that’s not all womanhood is!

    On Facebook, I have a photo album, consisting mostly of screenshots, titled “What is a Woman?” Here are the non-club definitions I’ve gathered so far:

    “A person who takes on social or physical attributes of a person who had highly estrogenized hormone washes in the womb”

    “Nothing and everything”

    “An adult human who identifies as a woman”

    “Frankenstein’s monster”*

    “The only inherent difference between trans women and cis women is that trans women were assigned male by a doctor”

    * That one deserves to be read in all its glory. Contributed by one Julia Ftacek:

    “Your friendly reminder that terms like “woman” and “female” are not precise medical or biological categories, but rather millennia-old palimpsests of wildly different cultural values, medical knowledge, theology, politics, etc. Woman is Frankenstein’s monster”

    Jim Baerg,

    and how many of those were intended to be sarcastic?

    Not a one, I assure you.
