These idiots don't even know what a period is and they think we're "gatekeeping" them just to be mean. What happened to Twitter that people on it can be this stupid?

I think it's best to remember that half of the people you argue with on the internet are secretly 14 years old.

They also let these children upvote.

And, yes, I have argued with multiple teenage girls who really do believe trans women have periods.

The main reasoning is "why would anyone lie about that?"

Give them a couple of years among men and they'll get it.

secretly 14 years old

Mentally 14, emotionally 2, and chronologically anywhere between 25 and 60.

I didn't find these, I just stole it off Reddit. Not my circus, not my monkeys. But yes, the advice still stands true.

I was told by a guy that he knew what it was like to be in the military because he was in a frat. I did not deny his experience. I didn't even point out he had no idea what he was talking about. He was my boss.

"I just bought a football."

"That's a basketball."

"How dare you deny my experience."

or

Judge: "say that again prosecutor."

Prosecutor: "that person is guilty."

Judge: "Good enough for me."

Accused: "wait, don't I get a fair trial."

Judge: "how can I deny the prosecutor's experience?"

The women's group that I got evicted from is full of this. E causes cramps in the smooth muscles apparently. Must be a transwoman thing because I'm quite sure natal women don't experience this. Not even women post-hysterectomy afaik. Women without wombs don't experience this! Lols it's so silly

Yep, people don't apply their common sense. The fact post menopausal women, who are biologically set up to have periods, don't get these phantom pains never crosses their minds.

I've seen a TiM lied to people straight without missing a beat over this.

He said "if transwomen don't get periods then why do I get these symptoms the same time every month?"

Some woman relied "Women don't actually get their periods monthly, it's closer to 28 days on average."

TiM "so because I get these symptoms every 28 days it must be a period."

It's just all la la fantasy land for them everyday 24/7. If you can't believe people live like that then you are going to get suckered in.

Because "progressive" liberalism lost its mind sometime in the late-2000's/early-2010's and decided that, since gay rights had been "won", they needed a new way to virtue-signal sexual progressivism. This got coupled with gender theory and we get the logical trainwreck that is modern TQ+ ideology.

Or, to quote an earlier comment of mine:

The whole "xenogender" BS was the clearest indication that none of this is about any actual part of their self (in the sense that homosexuality is), but is simply the newest, most fashionable "in" group, a way to be seen and noticed and praised. Everything in progressive circles now must be about "gender" because progressivism thrives on having a defined target, and after gay marriage was won, they needed something new to be "on the right side of history" about. Couple that with a generation of socially inept, terminally online young people who can't form meaningful relationships IRL, and you get this insanity.

My mom had a hysterectomy and was put on estrogen afterward. Guess what? She never had a period again. Why would she suddenly stop getting periods, but random men who literally never had the organs in the first place start getting them? Hmm?

If estrogen caused PMS and cramps like these morons say, then female people would have have PMS before and during ovulation - which happens in the middle of the cycle - not before and during menstruation, which happens 2 weeks later. Because during the cycle, estrogen is highest during and right before ovulation. After ovulation, estrogen drops.
