    Literally no one thinks cis women and trans women are the same, so your compromise doesn’t mean anything in and of itself.

    I’m asking you what your position means in real world terms. What are the consequences of these differences? Because that’s what really matters.

    Feigned outrage because I asked you for specifics seems counter to your stated goals of reaching compromise and makes me question your motives.

      So a specific compromise would be when someone says that they accept transwomen as people deserving of respect and dignity, but i dont think they should be allowed to compete in professional sports as women, you dont call them a bigot or refuse to engage with them. Its saying "could you think of a way to esure womens safety that doesnt assume all trans people are sexual predators? " when they say women should be able to feel safe in locker rooms.

      Its about engagjng in good faith discussions so that people who just passivly observe things dont get the impression that the disenguous “just asking questions” people are the moderate and reasonable ones.
