Politician changes his gender from man to woman so that he won't be attacked for it when speaking on abortion. Wikipedia rages that suddenly pronouns don't count anymore.

You're calling me a transphobe but you're using that slur? Oh what has become of this world.

Just to clear things up, Barry said: [...] declare my gender today, as I can, to be a woman and then you will no longer be able to attack me [based on gender]. Tell me how this doesn't imply that Barry is saying this just so people won't be able to use the gender argument.

If Barry officially announces being transgender, then I have absolutely no problem with that. If Barry were to now show a feminine appearance, and change their gender permanently, then I will revoke my statements without question. How does that make me a transphobe?

I just can't tolerate people abusing being transgender to win debates that have nothing to do with it.
