That was the buzz words I meant.
But never mind that ... it sounds like you're saying that your position is that it's basically horribly offensive to your sensibilities if someone generally referred to a 'mother' ... is any way analogous to being 'a women', is that correct?
I never said that. The article never said anything like that. You are going out of your way to frame those of us who advocate for the use of inclusive as though we are the ones complaining or offended when it was Ms. Kasparian who took umbrage and offense where none was given nor intended. You can see that here:

There are many ways to be a woman. Anyone who identifies with womanhood enough to seriously apply the label to themselves is a woman. Cis and trans women are women.
Saying a person who gives birth includes many cis-women. The issue is using trying to use inclusive language in such a way that we dont create bad generalizations that exclude people who want to be and should be included, or include people who do not.
Again as I said before trans-men can be mothers. Some women cant be mothers. Saying those who have given birth does not erase women but acknowledges this fact. I It prevents the false implication that trans men who gave birth are women and it prevents the equally as false assumption that those women who cant give birth are not real women.
Those of us using these terms are trying to be inclusive and fight these type of trans-antagonistic views. It is not degrading nor is it meant to be.
Ana was being a transphobic snowflake. At the time she first said this I assumed it was meant to antagonize the Biden Administration but given her bullshit comment on trans activists and now the podcast where she attacks puberty blockers and defended Jesse Singal she has proven herself a true TERF.
