As far as I'm concerned this is a free speech comment section. Just don't forget the people who might be reading this and the beelaw.

A general way to remember this is that a trans woman is a woman, so she's going to call herself a woman. She wouldn't call herself a man and also be transitioning at the same time.

Like generally when we're referring to ourselves we don't do it in a self-invalidating way on purpose.
