    I’m really tired of hearing things like “real women have curves!” or comparisons between “women” and “transwomen” (as if a trans woman is any less of a woman than a cis woman?).
Heads up folks: all bodies are real bodies, regardless of size, regardless of shape, regardless of colour, class, education, orientation, nationality, religion, or genetic make up. Pre or post op? Born xx or xy? Skinny with no tits or curvy as all get out? There is no body that is not a “real” body, there is no woman who is not a “real woman.” 
So here is my attempt to be a hipster activist. Anyway.
