This is the issue - why would asking "what is a woman" be so antagonist and controversial when everyone knew what the answer to this 5 years ago? How can you differentiate between people that are asking this question due to actually wanting to know from the people that use it as a loaded question?

"**So if someone wants to be whatever they believe a woman is then let them, I dont see any harm**"

What happens when it comes to medical research and drug trials when someone that believes they are a woman turns up, when in fact they are actually a biological male but he slips thru the cracks and completely ruins the research? - that might be a small example, but this type of thing could/will lead to much larger issues.

Look at [the medical research/results for Monkeypox in New York](https://www.nyc.gov/site/doh/data/health-tools/monkeypox.page#surveillance) \- the results they have included are "Non-Binary/Gender-Queer" and "Unknown" in their demographic groups. We are talking about medical research and demographics for something that according to WHO can lead "some people, an infection can lead to medical complications and even death". By using "non-binary" and "unknown" completely obscure the results.

Believe it or not, I actually read a medical research paper a couple of months ago, can't remember what it was for, but even that paper had completely obscured medical facts. They had something down as *commonly found in most females* (can't remember 100% what they said, but it was something like that) - when in fact, all and only biological women have it. - I will try and find it and post a link.

**If she did coax her child into changing gender that would be pretty unethical**

Saying that could lead some people to say you are "transphobic", just look at what happened to [Mario Lopez](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0-SVkQ-GwOA&t=6s) when he said a similar thing.

**Whoever is linking racism with viewing Black Panther in the opening weekend will be either one person being idiotic.**

It was more than one, all you need to do is check Twitter, utube and bloody tik tok for it, it was a "whole community" of people that said that. - however, if it was less than 5 people, I will stand corrected.

**Why should certain legal immigrants be deported?**

I live in Glasgow, the legal immigrants that should be deported are the Romanian gipsies, the beggars anyway, they don't bring anything to this country, nothing at all, the foreign criminals - just look up Ibrahim Ahmadi as an example. Also on the deportation list would be people who can't speak English after living here for 5 + years. And that goes for ex-pats living in Spain who can't speak a word of Spanish after living there for 5+ years. Learning the local language is an important process of integrating into said country. I don't see anything wrong with thinking this, but some people will have a major problem with someone having that type of view, which is fine, due to me knowing that everyone has a different view on everything.

**I can see why people are calling you TERF and racist.**

What type of "racist" would go out with two people from, essentially, a different race from me?

**Im worried that you have gone down a rabbit hole of reading hateful websites or listening to antagonistic voices**

I might watch "the right" people on utube, but I also watch "the left" as well, I try to research everything that the people I watch say, and try to find out if they have some sort of alternative motive for their views.

I read something today in the bloody Daily Mail that had the headline xxxx said it was "my favourite sex scene" nowhere in the report did the person say that. So what would their alternative motive be to put that in the headline?
