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.

Everybody can disagree with me, it's fine and that's debate and we love it.
It was aimed at transphobic people, and again, not towards not-transphobic people who have genuine concerns about the topic.
Point, blank and period. You were not in my head when I wrote it, you seem to know better what I meant and felt. It probably came out wrong, but I suppose you won't see any differently. If you don't trust me, then it is life and so be it. Have a lovely saturday
