If a black woman wasn't black, she'd still be a woman.
If a disabled woman wasn't disabled, she'd still be a woman.
If a genderqueer polyromantic demisexual woman wasn't... all that bullshit, she'd still be a woman.
If a transgender woman wasn't transgender, she'd be a MAN, baby.

Dismissive framing aside, it’s basically true? If an AMAB person wasn’t trans, they’d be a cis man. Obviously. That’s how it works. Not sure why you think this is a gotcha.

[Edit] This is assuming that a person could be divested from their defining traits, including ones like “trans” or “black”. Were this somehow possible, it’s extremely questionable whether you could call them the same person. If you couldn’t, then this is just pointless pedagogy anyway.

If salt water wasn’t salty, it would still be water.
If dirty water wasn’t dirty, it would still be water.
If frozen water wasn’t frozen, it would still be water.
If water wasn’t water, it wouldn’t be water.

No shit, Sherlock.

...and if a man wasn't black, he'd be white? The reggae artiste Yellowman.

Whoops!

“If a transgender woman wasn't transgender, she'd be a MAN, baby.”

I don’t know anyone who’d argue against that statement. that’s how it works. Makes more sense than that moron who argued that the Constitution doesn’t have pronouns.

I mean, you even refer to the ‘transgendered woman’ as ‘she.’ VERY progressive of you, Woman4W.

If a transgender woman wasn't transgender, she'd be a MAN, baby.

Or, she'd be a cisgender woman.

And if my grandmother had wheels, she’d be a wagon.
