All trans women are simply men pretending to be women.” Do you agree with her ?

There it is.

I understand you suffer from cognitive dissonance.

How so?
You hold two contrary positions simultaneously and truly believe both - because only the party matters.
Huh? What do the parties have to do with this?
Men pretending to be women are not in fact women.
Not biologically female, correct.
Explain how it meets the definition.
Hardly - you're just ducking again.
Nope. Straw men are not an accepted form of argument.
 
Quote me.
Denying your own posts NEVER works, LeftNut.
Correct. Their biological sexes don't change.
So it IS men pretending to be a woman.
There is no pretending.
Paradox. Irrational. You cannot argue both sides of a paradox.
You, IIRC, agreed that there are differences between male and female brains.
You are still locked in this paradox.
Ive provided the definition of mental illness. Both do not meet it.
You are still locked in this paradox.
Straw man.
Fallacy fallacy. No straw man here.
 
Rightys are so simple. Chromosomes are a factor ion sex determination. But there are varieties in chromosomes too. there are other chromosomes that are seen as sex influencers. Then chemistry is a factor like hormones, androgens, and pregesterone.

Extremely rare.

This is like saying that because a baby was born without an arm that means that arms are now on a spectrum. It really doesn't change that humans have two arms. Fingers aren't really on a spectrum either even though some folks have fewer or more than ten (counting thumbs).

There's nothing "missing" in transgender/intersex folks.

But you're correct... it's rare.

There is a rare genetic defect, just like someone born with an extra arm (can happen)... or a tail. Again, this doesn't mean that arms or tails are on a spectrum. Nor would reality change with how they feel.

Intersex or folks with extra chromosomes notwithstanding. This is not the same thing as transgender which is all based on how someone feels about themselves. Dysphoria is a real thing, but there is no evidence that it is based in genetics. Comparing someone born with multiple sex organs to someone suffering from Dysphoria is a false comparison.

Gender dysphoria is based on society and environment. It's a stress experienced by some transgender people.
Transgenderism is based in genetics.

There is no evidence that transgenderism is based in genetics, there are wishful studies that found "many" different things they believe "could contribute" but they had to be factored with environment and how they were treated, etc.

I am not arguing against transgender people. I am just saying comparing them to intersexual folks and using those rare instances with direct genetic links in a comparison to transgender folks which have no direct genetic link only "multi-factorial" (these possible genetic things coupled with other environmental and societal factors could possibly) relation is not a good comparison.

I support anyone changing anything about themselves to make themselves feel better, if they are adults and do not expect everyone to participate.

Like that cat person earlier... I will not pretend they are a cat. But IMO they absolutely have a right to get that surgery if it makes them feel better about themselves.
