Re: That should be obvious

But even transphobic people reckon trans people are still people, right? And 'transphobic' apparently means anything not totally pro-trans doing whatever they want to some people. I see there is a balance between 'women's rights' and 'trans rights', and complete self-identification with no controls at all will erode women's rights.
If you decide that men cannot just declare themselves to be women for the day in order to gain some advantage, then you agree there needs to be some sort of controls on this. Some people already claim that's transphobic. But now you decide there must be some sort of control, the question becomes what kind.
Should people be able to change their gender every hour as and when it suits them? No. Should people never be able to change their gender? No. Where exactly is the 'correct' position between those two extremes? Is there a correct position? Possibly not. But this sort of nuanced question is useless in today's society of Twitter rants and death threats.
