words cannot describe how uncomfortable the conversation i had today was

picture this: a trans woman, two cis guys, and me in a conference room. somehow the convo shifts to medical insurance requiring biological sex on claims (this is normal, we work in healthcare)

the one cis guy will not stop reminding everyone that it’s super problematic and sex != gender in a really forced way, and the trans woman is trying to describe this point about how it’s not a trans thing at all and it has been used for discrimination against cis women for years
