I mean, if you're making a comment directed at me/a specific person, absolutely. However, personally, I think this post is fine. Context matters too, this isn't denigrating or negative so it doesn't bother me along those lines either. I don't particularly care for this post, but I wouldn't call it a problem. And yes, we already call trans women women, and clarify trans when it's contextually relevant. For example, "Women find this offensive" vs "Trans women find this offensive", the latter is addressing the sub group specifically. I don't mean to jump down your throat and prefer to err on the side of not potentially bothering people, just thought I'd chime in with my two cents
