I didn't go anywhere, I literally read what you wrote regarding men vs. women.
Quote:Men can get pregnant if they still retain the biological means to do so.
So, you admit your statement that prompted my response was inaccurate and denied the existence of transgender men.
Quote:The people affected by the push to eliminate abortion are the "ones' who possess the reproductive ability to become pregnant. Those people could be men or women in terms of gender. I don't know how to make it any simpler to understand.
I concur. Except that's not what you said. I understand completely, it's you who appears confused.
Quote:Perhaps you don't want to understand and are more comfortable misconstruing the topic?
What an obvious case of projection. I'll repost your own words, again.

Men and women are CREATED when the sperm fertilizes the egg and the rest are just stages of development.

One isn't required to potentially be forced against their will and autonomy to bring forth life.
There is no way to interpret your response outside of men are not "required" to deal with the three things you mentioned, because that's literally what you said. This completely denies the existence and lived experience of transgender men. Hence I called you out on it. Now, if your mistake was inadvertent, simply say so, apologize and we'll move on. I will certainly take you at your word that you made an inadvertent error. But kindly quit trying to deflect the blame for your statement on to me.
