It was dismissive of women who think there are concerns when it comes to clashes with women's rights - and in this post, you are still suggesting that those women are "transphobic people". Your opinion hasn't changed, you're saying the same now as you were on page one, and as such my opinion hasn't changed either: You have more concern for progressing trans rights than you do for considering the rights and safety of women that might be eroded in the process. That might be because "you don't think they will be" but that's not really relevant, as we're talking about sympathy, which doesn't require agreement. When you say "it wasn't aimed at women" you mean "...because it wasn't aimed at the many women who happen to agree with me on this topic". It was aimed squarely at the many women who
disagree with you, it dismissed their concerns without even an attempt at discussion, it (frankly) with "relax and love it" told them that they should keep their mouths shut. This is classic misogyny whether you can see it or not - and if you can't - and you really do see yourself as appreciating both sides of this debate - all I can do is suggest you think about it.
