       I'm sympathetic towards people who want to swap "afabs" for "people who were afab", but also, I'm not doing that. The word already means "assigned female at birth". The information that it took place in the past is already there. If you're upset some people are using it as a quasi gender identity, creating a longer phrase won't help, what will help is a more profound conversation about how being socialized as a girl doesn't result in unity and uniformity of experiences.

       @comrade_lecter yeah. putting emphasis on the fact it refers to the past still doesn’t change the fact that a category of people defined by an event when they were a baby… doesn’t create the meaningful category people think it does. people use it to mean having a vagina, being perceived as female, or whatever they decide
