For a quite long time regressive leftist feminists have been complaining about how men dominate every aspect of society and how women are being oppressed and cannot compete with men at a level playfield. They talk about the "glass ceiling", and how all top positions are dominated by men, and how society benefits men and keeps women down. Thus they have for many years now advocated for special treatment for women, for enrollment and hiring quotas, and so on. They advocate for men to voluntarily "step down" from positions of power and give women their place (whether those women have actually earned that place or not, and whether she has the actual qualifications). One of the worst things that a man can do is to go and take a position of power away from a woman, and take her earnings away from her.
For quite long critics of the regressive left have joked that if men want to keep "oppressing" women and take their places and all of their privileges, the only thing they need to do is to claim to be women. After all, according to the exact same regressive feminists, you are the gender you claim to be, no questions asked. If you say you are a woman, then you are literally a woman, period. Not just nominally a woman, but literally and physically a woman in all aspects. Anybody who tries to say otherwise is a bigot and a transphobe.
Well, it's not a joke anymore. It hasn't been for quite a long time. That's actually literally what's happening. Have you been convicted of rape, but don't want to go to a male prison to be beaten by other prisoners? Just claim to be a woman, and you'll be sent to women's prison. (As a bonus, you'll get to rape prisoners there, it seems.)
Or if you are an athlete, just claim you are a woman, and suddenly you can compete against other women and win by a landslide. There are many examples of this, but here's a very recent one.
Two men, claiming to be "women", competed in a women's sprinting competition. They came first and second. One of them set the state record.
Well, no shit.
Where's the feminist outrage about this? Men are invading women's sports, and stealing all their positions, rewards and chances to succeed.
But in this day and age "trans" rights go above women's rights, and therefore the SJWs stay silent. "Trans" people are higher on the oppression stack than women, and thus "trans" people can oppress women all they want. And all you have to do to become "trans" and thus gain all the privileges is to say you are a woman. Nothing else is needed. Now you can freely oppress women, and steal their places and rewards, and the social justice warriors will defend you.
