Chelsea Manning released from prison

There are 7126 subscribers to the subreddit you linked. A notable feminist subreddit that is actively not transphobic (that I am not going to link to because I love it and I do not want it to be brigaded) has 214400 subscribers. So your sample is about 3% of the internet population if we believe that reddit is a representative sample.

I sincerely believe that the vast majority of women are tired of being used as an excuse for bigotry.

Reddit is considered representative? It certainly has a wide range of views but it is heavily weighted to youths and young adults.

Absolutely not. The OP linked to reddit to demonstrate their viewpoint was shared by women, and I was countering their argument by demonstrating that it is relatively unpopular among women on the site that they linked.

I definitely understand the downvotes now that the comment has been flagged and is not able to be seen.

Nobody here has argued anything about biological sex. We're talking about personal identity, which is psychological and cultural instead of microbiological.
