Trans Women Are Women, The Full Defense

Sex is a family property with cluster attractors.
To be male is to have a significant but undetermined fraction of characteristics that are male-typical, such as hair, deep voice, bad skin, thinking about the Roman Empire, a short Y chromosome, balls, sperm production capability, crossing your legs wide, being honest (as an adult), voting well, etc…

Each individual, say Eric, has some maleness to him, which puts them, in the N-dimensional space of all these characteristics, closer to the male attractor center of gravity than the female attractor center of gravity.

Some people are more male than Eric, like Tate, and some are less, like MoonBrah or Eddie Izzard.

To be male, by definition, is to be closer in that attractor space of N dimensions from the male center than the female center.

This definition isn’t circular because the family of characteristics ostensibly points to it.

If you change your hormones, behavior, societal perception, phenotype, skin type, etc… you have, just like a frog or a salamander that switches sex, switched your sex. This is true even if you have not managed to switch any particular characteristic, like what pronoun people call you, or the ability to bear children in your belly. If you are closer to the male attractor, congratulations, you are not a woman.

The thing that makes imbeciles and conservatives hesitant about this obvious biological fact is that conservatives are:

1) Low in openness and uncomfortable with liminal spaces that don’t have a big wall on the southern border and are grey areas of Jewish nuance.
2) Neurotically and pathologically obsessed with reproduction to the point they literally invented God to get a modest fitness advantage, promote natalism on every curve, hate women without children and think men without children are losers, and literally condemned sodomy as a sin.
In short, they REALLY want you to multiply. So for them, incorrectly, all that counts is reproduction capability, which our current technology cannot yet reliably switch.
To the conservative mind, we are but the birthing pods for more of “our identity”, and anything on the way of that is bulldozed, whether or not is true, e.g. the anti-abortion stance.

So biologically, as well as socially, some transwomen are women. Not all, because not everyone successfully moves themselves closer to the female attractor than the male attractor. Some might try and still fail, some might simply not try enough, nature doesn’t care, facts don’t care about your feelings, whether you want to be trans, or whether you want to pretend trans doesn’t exist. Nature just is, unimpeded.

We live in the internet age though, and we live in an age of far more kindness and moral wisdom than 1000, or 10000 years ago. So let’s talk about trans people morally, and virtually, not just biologically and socially.

There are 30 to 45 million Transpeople worldwide, think of them as a nation. They are not going anywhere, many of them like being trans, some of them don’t, some of them hate life, some of them love life, some of them kill themselves, and some of them reverse transition. Some of them get pregnant or impregnate someone else. These people are not going away. It doesn’t matter what you think of them. Trans people exist, they will continue to exist, and they will live their lives as they best can, until one day, by mental illness induced suicide, or at the ripe old age of 82, with a belly full of wine and young woman’s mouth around their cock, they will eventually die. And so will you. The day you die, there will be more openly trans people on earth than today. The trend is clear, they have been increasing in numbers and although they are a tiny fraction of the population, they are still a lot of people in absolute numbers. Same size as Canada, Argentina, Morroco, or Ukraine. the Transnation should be tolerated by all, and even liked by many. So morally, at a group level we should be kind and nice to trans people. Further if you know a Trans person personally, you are under no obligation of calling them by whatever pronouns or talking to them at all, you’re free, do whatever the fuck you feel like all the time, within legal bounds. But if you want to act morally, you should consider being kind and vocalize aspirationally towards what that trans person wants. Let’s say George is trans and wants to become Georgina, George learns all the mannerisms, takes hormones, behaves femininely, and looks almost like a girl. George, despite his best efforts, doesn’t manage to get closer to the female attractor, he manages to go 49% of the way, but not 51%. Now why would you add to Georges problems by calling him male, or deadnaming him George. You know by the dress and the manner of speaking, by the long luscious hair and the impeccable foundation and makeup, that George wants to be a woman. Can you aspirationally, out of the goodness of your heart, concede to George to call him Georgina? Can you make another human being’s day? Can you make them feel validated for something they spent a lifetime trying to achieve? I would suggest yes.
Now if Greg is clearly male and masculine, is on a 10%, and demands to be called Greggete from a mouth full of meat spilling on his long beard while scratching his balls, then no. Greg isn’t close enough to be acceptable to call him a woman. The left doesn’t like to accept that, but the left is wrong about most things so I don’t care.

Now the world has gone largely virtual, in the virtual world, I have blue eyes (check my profile picture, it’s true) IF you see me walking the streets without contact lenses, you’d immediately know I don’t have blue eyes in meatspace. But meatspace is only a small fraction of my life. I ama terminally online guy. I am on TikTok, Twitter, and Facebook all day, a lot of it writing philosophy and anthropology, since I prefer these immediate media to do that instead of the dry and useless peer review 2 year long drag of academia, where I spent 15 years already. In virtual worlds, it is much easier to morph our phenotypes, and for trans people, that can be a blessing. Contrapoints can interact with people who think of her as the beautiful woman she dresses up to be in her videos, even if she just woke up after a drunk night, and looks like a kind of beatdown androgynous boy that morning. Our selves are partially virtual, and that gives us even more leeway to move in the spectrum of sex towards the sex we would prefer to be. Same is true of tech, makeup tech, biotech, self-improvement tech, all of those make trans life easier.

Not all transwomen are women, some have failed, like Greg, who is actually a man, not a transwoman. Some, if you are a good moral person, you can aspirationally say succeeded, like George. Some, possibly most after a while, have in fact succeeded, they are now in fact closer to the female attractor.
The same is true, even more so, for transmen, who more easily are recognized as men by society due to their beards, deep voices, hairy and muscular body etc…

So, as a PhD in a human biological field, and a cismale, who also happens to be an actual philosopher, and therefore having basically all the credentials needed to make this assessment, and with the added advantages of being a rightwing guy who loves Bolsonaro, Trump, Milei, Geert Wilders, Bukele and even Bannon, and having lived (As a roommate in a big house, not as a date) with 3 trans women, one before transition and two after, I am arguably one of the most qualified people on earth to make this statement:
Most transmen are men.
Most transwomen are women.

This is true scientifically, biologically, philosophically, and morally.

Facts don’t care about your feelings, and these are the facts.
There is a separate problem that people need to accept that not every single transperson who attempts transmutation into the other gender succeeds, but that’s not the target public of this writing. The target public of this writing is the large cohort of people who are anti-trans, advocate for the erradication of trans, etc… etc… etc…

If you disagree, and I could be wrong, I’ve been wrong about a lot before, please, lay out your argument in response carefully, and precisely, and I will revisit my beliefs, and issue a public retraction if I am convinced (I have done this countless times before when I was wrong about something)

Otherwise, please, stop using ignorance as an excuse. Maybe you didn’t know before. But now you do. Humans can, and do become trans.

It’s not only possible, it is factual.
