Discussion Terms such as ''Bodies with vaginas'', ''Birthing bodies'', and ''Chest feeding'' are ridiculous. : unpopularopinion

Removed for Rule Number One: Opinion must be unpopular.

Interesting, so this is not an unpopular opinion at all. According to Reddit.

I think Reddit is a TERF.

I archived the OG thread that made it to the main page on Reddit. By the time the archive was complete the Reddit Mods removed the post obviously because it makes the Transgender Cult look bad therefore making the post truly unpopular on Predd it ... Anyway here is the OG posters post

Chest feeding? Birthing Bodies? It's like something out of a dystopian novel. For real. I've never seen such dehumanizing language in my life, there's just something so absolutely gross and repulsive about reducing people down to "bodies" and "bodies with vaginas", it's completely lacking in any semblance of humanity. However, I do find it rather hilarious, at least from my observations, that this dehumanizing language is almost routinely applied to women in particular. Birthing People, Pregnant People, Bodies with Vaginas (but there was no 'Bodies with Penises'), Chest Feeding. It's almost as if any semblance of organic womanhood is being totally and completely erased on the whim of complete wank, and I have no doubt in my mind that this wank will be used to further advance repealing women's sex-based rights and protections. How the fuck such an extremely tiny, miniscule, microscopic sect of humanity has managed to have this much control over all discourse is beyond me and my canuck brain. Women have every right to be upset over this complete nonsense, I would be too. A term isn't inclusive if it offends 99.5% of people.

It's not just that those terms are dehumanizing that is bad. They also make it impossible to mention female sex and so they make it impossible to understand sexism and sex-based oppression. They dehumanize women and then they erase women as an embodied definition, and the latter is true even if "people" are used. Suddenly being a female person or being a woman becomes undefined, and then it becomes something based on sexist stereotypes and rigid gender boxes. Back into the 1950s except for special full people who are enbies now.

To have one's whole sex erased is much closer to having one's existence denied or erased than when TRAs argue that any questioning erases their existence. The mistreatment women in Afghanistan face is sex-based, the mistreatment women in US face (when Roe is overturned) is sex-based. And now we are not even allowed to define ourselves.

And the silencing happens again.

They're acting as if the word 'woman' is a slur.

Lolololol the more airtime they get the more people they peak

Sunlight is the best disinfectant.

I get pissed off that people can say they feel like a woman on the inside...when (still, sadly) literally half of an actual woman's life experience is how OTHERS perceive her.

Have you been sexually objectified since birth? No. Did you worry about starting your period and embarrassing yourself in the process? No. Were you looked over for leadership roles due to what was between your legs? No. Were you expected to shut up, smile, do chores and babysit for free all because of your vagina and what it means to society? NO.

You're not a woman just because you feel like you are one. Being a woman is also about how you experience life and it pisses me off that guys who like make up and women's clothing think that that's all there is to it. Fuck off. Stop stereotyping us, and romanticizing what you think womanhood is, it's an insult.

Do you have the right to dress your body any way you see fit? Absolutely. Do you have the right to pay for cosmetic surgery to make yourself feel better? Yes!

Do either of those things make you male or female? No.

This you, OP?

Reddit and twitter can censor us, but they can't stop us from thinking these things and knowing them too be true. Mainstream social media is run by misogynists.

Also: It's breast feeding. Men have breasts too. Men get breast cancer. I've known men who got it and who were turned down by every major charity because of the stupid, convoluted belief that "breasts" are exclusive to women. They aren't. We don't own the rights to have breasts. Everyone can have breasts and it's not shameful.

Been saying this for ages. "Breastfeeding" doesn't need a new word. (Well I can't speak for the charity part of the quote.) But good golly. The Lobby truly treats gynecomastia as if it does not exist

Sorry, this post has been removed by the moderators of r/unpopularopinion.

Well that was expected...

Hilarious.

This one topic right here proves TRAs are insane. Men have breasts. Breasts that develop differently from women's breasts, but breasts nonetheless. If a man manages to breastfeed...it's breastfeeding. The fact that they can't even handle a unisex term proves they're unhinged.

lmao it was removed from r/unpopularopinions for being too unpopular.

Unbelievable.

Aaaaand it was deleted
