But this does raise a good point. Why do we even say trans women? Why not just women?

I think the idea is that transgender people are in a state of transition from one gender to the other. From transsexual.
Once they finish that transition they would be called the other sex. But as the vast majority find out, they're always stuck in the transitory state, very clearly a member of one sex. Very sad!

For this to work "trans wo" would have to be an adjective for "man" which also somehow attaches itself as a prefix to man ermmm what the fish....

>Why do we even say trans women?
for the same reason one would say "blonde woman"; it's useful in certain contexts to distinguish groups of people, eg trans women and cis women, who, while both groups of women, have distinct experiences (so too do a blonde woman and a brunette woman, though likely to a more minor degree) about which these adjectives make it easier to talk

This person has a billion dollars while im a broke 35 year old transbian neet tho so glass houses and stuff

It is an adjective. That is the reason using it with a space became more common. A woman who is trans is a trans woman. A "transwoman" that is some other thing is a fantasy of people like JK Rowling.

That's not what a compound adjective is. You should have paid more attention in primary school.

The funny thing here is that 'trans woman' is a composite noun, not a noun with an adjective. How did this woman pass high school?
>>
>>40995396
of course leave it to a fiction writer to not understand that language is just an imperfect means of description and communication that has no real implications for the underlying phenomena
it's specified merely for convenience to differentiate on issues that are specific to the condition, which is transgender, not to the identity, physically and socially, which is woman

>still obsessed with JKR
It’s absolutely wild how much more famous and important troons have made her by seething on every corner of the net

The first question is whether transwoman counts as a third sex or not.
If it does not, and you are sticking to only 2 sexes, then the next question is whether transwoman is predicated of woman or whether transwoman is predicated of man. Whether you would say “the woman is a transwoman” or “the man is a transwoman”. Obviously, that’s where the disagreement is, so it cannot be solved with grammar.

Why do black women say black women and not just women? Why is it trans women and not transwomen? Will not be othered or hidden away.

"Trans woman" is literally, grammatically also adjective + noun. Transgender is an adjective. Woman is a noun. By her logic, "woman" is a compound noun. If you remove "wo" from "woman", you're left with "man".
This is an acclaimed writer? How does this actual brain damaged mold huffing demon have such a cult following? We are living in hell

Stop using the words man and woman! They're corrupted.

I love how she puts it. So maybe instead of saying "trans woman" we should be saying "trans male," because at least we can all agree upon the definition of "male." We'll all agree more and fight less!

PROBLEM SOLVED!!! GET SHOOK

Now we have to figure out the problem of pronouns... why should they refer to gender and not sex? If I can pull a new gender out of my ASS HOLE whenever I feel like it, and I can create new pronouns to go with it, how can everyone else REASONABLY be expected to keep up with me? Can't we agree to use pronouns to describe sex instead of gender and save us ALL the headache?

"corrupted" is a retarded spook, as well as the amount of retardation and assholeism required to ask everybody you meet for their genitalia status
