waltzingwithmonsters-deactivate asked: i hope this is lucid: i know some trans women who have talked about the idea of "woman" being a class of people, that are subject to oppression under patriarchy and thus people who aren't strictly women or women at all are still put, by society, into the social position of "woman"; also i know quite a few DD (specifically autistic) people who are AFAB ("biofemale" in the old terms) and identify both as women and nonbinary transgender, due to how society views and treats them

Yeah, these categories are messy, by nature, and attempts to make them neat run the risk of slicing actual people.
