cis people use “xx” and “xy” to refer to women or men respectively in general, not thinking about troons, regardless of how accurate that is

    “these amabs are approaching me an annoying amount” —-> explicitly using terminology that is used to lump cis men in with trans women, including trans women for genuinely no reason despite the fact that it makes mo sense and that the “”””amabs”””” who approached were most likely cis men and/or poonchads

    “xy holders are approaching me an annoying amount” —-> technically does include trans women but realistically the term is used to refer to what the user imagines as cis men, ie cis men and passing trans men (non-passing trans men, even if considered men by the speaker, would trip the speakers troon detector, making them use a term other than “xy holders”). in actual realistic usage this does not include troons unless some smartass goes “erm acktually All Amabs have XY chromosomes* and then the first speaker goes “sorry, masc-presenting individuals were approaching me an annoying amount” or something else equally braindead

    *incorrect

    when you go “xy holders wait that includes trans women” YOU are being the smartass putting us in the men category there
