In this Trump Era, the correct thing to do will be to grope anyone claiming to be a female to make sure they are not lying.

That's why I'm calling my senator to demand that I and all other American women be forced to wear leggings.

Why does it matter to you?

Who is this "we" that you speak of? It sure doesn't include me, because I can't think of anything that is less my business than the exact construction of a stranger's genitals or the use to which said genitals are put.

Well then, don't.

As a born female myself, I'm willing to take another person's self-assessment at face value. Because I really am not curious about the details, which don't concern me.

I will say that if you persist on insisting that what is in someone else's pants is your business, then you will have some, um, rather notable social interactions.

That's a good point, no camel toe, no calling yourself a woman. Them's the rules in the Trump Era.

Since I do not *own* anyone I have no right to *allow* anyone to say or do anything.
Not my life, my choice nor my concern and if you want to be called a donkey who am I to tell you that you are anything but a donkey.

Ha! The Trump Corps, officially empowered to crotch-grab anyone they suspect of having non-compliant crotches.

Yeah, that'll be popular.

If some emotional cripple in dire need of proper psychiatric care derives happiness by having his Jimmy Dean snipped so he can rename himself "Tugboat Annie" and hang out in sleazy bars down by the docks trying to get himself picked up by drunken sailors seeing quadruple, more power to him. But the instant he tries to step foot inside a public bathroom with my underage daughters, he/she/it will wish they had stayed at that truckstop gloryhole instead.

Don't know....but why do we have to define a difference?

How would either person affect your life?

I hate to tell you this, but it is possible that has already happened. The thing is - unless you do a crotch grab, you won't know. (And you might not know even then.)
