Two people have said it is detrimental to communication so far yet nobody has requested any form of clarification on what I said

If anything my frequent lack of punctuation needs correcting first, that has caused infinitely more confusion. Weirdly in 20 years of forum use I've never had anyone start a discussion about it.. :)

Just as with punctuation, the intended meaning is clear within context. I knew the article was about women, but reading "female-identifying people" made me do a double take.

I don't question trans women were included too, but your phrasing made me doubt if this Tiktoker's audience was mainly trans women.
