transcription: saying "male to female" instead of just trans woman is like referring to fully grown people as "baby to adult". ahh... so you used to be a baby????? are you telling be you were BORN a baby... but then... hormones turned you into an adult? nice try. giant baby

To me it's like the wording "you're a man who became a woman." It's offensive for many reasons, but I think the biggest reason why it's so offensive is because at the end of the day, you still called me a man. If you were saying that I'm "a woman who used to be a man", it would still be deeply inaccurate, but much less offensive, because, well, at least you're calling me a woman this time around.

Either way, no matter how you say it, this obsession with what I used to be according to you is not only offensive, but it is kinda creepy. I am what I told you that I was.
