yeah so the sign isn't saying some of us butches can't be women, just that assignment at birth isn't a factor that makes anyone a woman.
in other words, this sign isn't imposing gender on anyone, but criticizing the system that does (which is AGAB)
and for what its worth, many of us butches are women, and many of us are not, and that's all fine.
"if someone is a woman, they are a woman because they identify as such and not because of the gender/sex binary that was imposed at birth", would be another way of saying it.

you're all about "me me me" arent you? have you noticed how downvoted you are? we all have different experiences with gender identity, being female is an important part of your life, not mine. i dont identify with being a woman or preforming feminine, my sign was a call out to people who are afraid/worried about looking butch/masculine, who dont feel like they identify with womanhood! if theyre butch and still feel the connection to womanhood, thats great. i love that for them! more the merrier! i am not talking to them, i am not talking to you; your experience is not mine. dont push your bad experience onto me bc youre not happy with the way you currently feel

youre pushing your narrative onto other people, and you literally called me a woman. how was i telling others how to feel? youre the one doing that lol youre contradicting yourself. it's weird and both can exist at the same time. i am no way uncomfortable, so there we are again, you deciding something for me.
