An individual who identifies and expresses gender signifiers primarily associated with femininity.
Problem with this is that it's actually circular when you unpack "femininity", which is defined as:
qualities or attributes regarded as characteristic of women.
So your definition of a woman becomes:
An individual who identifies and expresses gender signifiers primarily associated with the qualities or attributes regarded as characteristic of women.
So a woman is a person who identifies with woman-stuff, basically. It's still circular.
Yes, some words are inherently tautological. This is a feature of language that allows us to communicate abstract notions.

Even 10 years ago I never could have predicted this is where we would be.aybe even 5 years ago. It's crazy how quickly the US has shifted to not even being able to define what a women is.

I bet 70% would gladly go back to the actual definition, its just that most normal people value social peace and dont want to be screeched at and singled out if theyre the first ones to call out the bullshit, so they keep quiet, just like everyone else. And thus the AGPs can screech at the few that break the silence and "cancel" them, and everyone just thinks "well, at least its not me".

I filled out that PhD survey florist asked us to fill out as Ledasha Kween's who was asexual, but yet sexually dissatishfied with her current partners, despite the fact that she had BDD, MPD, ADHD, and was a peepee haver. I am part of the problem thus I know they exist

I tend to give them the ebenfit of doubt. And a lot of people just have the knee-jerk reaction to just validate people if it doesnt hurt them, thats why only 70%.
As for surveys... especially if theyre online. There was an article about how bad but influential online surveys are in a newspaper here, some weeks ago. And it is incredible. Agencies use these "one minute surveys" on random websites as actually representative samples that ipoliticians in turn base their policies on, even though it is well known how non-representative online shit is. But its simple and cheap.

I take the path of least resistance on topics that don't personally effect me. I can't believe how much you spergs give a shit about any of this.

Lmao you bet your butt i shut up about it.
But a few weeks ago we had some department "training" about it (though it wasnt about trains per se, but about how to properly do such trainings on political topics). There were like 15 people, all experienced professionals and generally nice people, if mildly "conservative" leaning. But if any reddit train had seen us, we might as well have been extermination camp guards. Once the door is closed and people are "under the rose", the truth tends to come out. No actual hate towards trains, but a very simple "these are men, simple as. Must suck to feel like youre in the wrong body, but doesnt change that youre still a man."

That's why I don't get the line that has been repeated over and over: She could have been remembered as a beloved children's author, but.....
Ok, she stood up and said what she said. That's supposed to make her less of a person than the people keeping their heads down? A lot of trains are super shallow.
