The row over transgender brand ambassadors is symbolic of a wider debate about the inclusion of transgender women in female issues and spaces. Some say transgender women should be treated the same as other women, while others say they are different and that hard-won women's rights must be protected.
So, unless radical feminists have turned conservative all of a sudden, there's really quite a bit more than that going on here, isn't there? One extremely interesting aspect of this affair is that the media - to their collective dismay - have been unable to marginalize or reframe it as a momentary fringe rightwing passion. AB's still waiting for the smoke to clear but the fire isn't out yet, not by a long way.
"Gender" is a term associated with grammar. It has no relevance to persons. The word "transgender" is meaningless when dealing with words and even more idiotic when attempts are made to use it in referring to the sex of males and females.
One might try to use the word "transexual" but that is just as ridiculous unless the X chromosomes in the human body could be changed into Y chromosomes or vice versa.
The correct terms for describing a male thinking he is a female or a female thinking she is a male include "pervert," "insane," "batcrap crazy," "liar," "Demonicrat.".
