    This is exactly what postmodernism denies: the existence of any human essence ("soul"). In other words, there is no human essence, everything is constructed (including sexuality) and edified by power relations. Quite a tragic human view if you ask me. No wonder the forefather of postmodernism is Nietzsche, the Dionysian philosopher.

    An educated friend of mine has actually said that the definition of a woman is "anyone who identifies as such"!

    If I was to be put in jail I would identify as woman. In fact I think it already happened somewhere.

    Although unusual, there have even been cases of sexual assault by trans women against biological women in women's prisons...

    Conservatives talk endlessly about a trans boogie monster under the bed that they or their family never encounter, it's just the fear of trans ginned up the sex obsessed and low brow right wing media. The OP singles out trans when he himself could be discriminated for his sexual orientation, which is pathetic and heartless. This a complete waste of time on a no issue by a self hating gay man.
    I am not singling out transgender people. How people wish to live and identify is their business alone. However, the notion that even pre-op transwomen should have the right to access women's toilets, refuges, prisons and participate in women's sports is deeply contentious.
