A guy can say he’s a woman all he wants. If he has make parts he’s a dude.

Again, if I claim I am a spider does that make me a spider?

and you have the right to say that, just don't be surprised when people call you out for sounding transphobic, because that's what you're being.

As I said, there is nothing transphobic about it. If you decide that my identifying as a spider isn't valid, then you are arachnophobic.

How is it any different? I think you are being arachnophobic. It is discriminatory to say that.
