I do not support statements like, "there are no biological differences between a woman and a mtf person"

trans women are women

they are different from cis women, but that doesn't suddenly make them any less of a woman


woman is default
trans woman is its own thing

no such thing as "cis woman" except as a rhetorical attempt to try to make the default not the default

what


He is saying "cis woman" is an illegitimate term because the term "woman" applies as default to women who are not trans. You don't need the "cis" descriptor because you don't need to distinguish the default group. You can just call them women.

You do need the descriptor "trans" for transwomen because transwomen aren't really women. They're transwomen.


Indeed. Anyone trying to force "cis woman" to become some legitimate rhetorical thing is simply trying to erase the concept of woman as a whole.
