Germaine Greer: Transgender women are 'not women'

I agree with her.

Transgender - more proof that gays / poofters are just plain sick in the head.

Germaine Greer: Transgender women are 'not women'

24 October 2015 Last updated at 09:27 BST

Australian-born academic and writer Germaine Greer has said that in her opinion, transgender women are "not women".

She also claims that "a great many women" who are not transgender think transgender women - who she refers to as "male to female transgender people" - do not "look like, sound like or behave like women".

Greer did say that she would be prepared to use female pronouns when referring to someone, if that was their preference, "as a courtesy".

I seriously don't know why these people bother. Never seen one yet that looks like a woman, and I doubt they'd feel like a woman to the touch.

Misty's used to taking instructions about what he should think. That's why he gets confused when there is diversity of thought amongst people he labels as lefties.

There've been a few comments over the last few years that show she's finally come around to something resembling reality.

Again you spectacularly miss the point.

If you stopped ascribing people's beliefs systems for them, you would expand your thinking tremendously.
