god even now your attempts to talk about genital and bodily functions in a gender neutral way are still fucking awful and shitty

you make posts like “people with vaginas”

and then go on to say things that not all people with the same genitalia have

because not all people with vaginas:

• menstruate

• can have children

• experience childbirth

• have uteruses

• were assigned female at birth

like if you’re talking specifically about menstruation then say “people who menstruate”

if you’re talking about people who can give birth, then say that! don’t say “people who have vaginas”

the same goes with “people with penises”

like aside from the transmisogynist implications of that statement,

there are plenty of people with penises who:

• can’t ejaculate

• can’t produce sperm

• were not assigned male at birth

like yall have got to stop with this stuff because you’re erasing trans people.

you’re erasing intersex people.

hell, you’re even erasing cis people whose genitals and reproductive organs don’t function the way they’re supposed to

just

please think about this
