2. Why are transgender(transmen&transwomen) rights not hurting feminism?

To steal this question for my own soapboxing about what I think feminism should be: it's about equality. Equal rights, equal opportunities. A feminist should not be better than a man, but equal with a man, with mutual respect. And I want this for everyone - trans people, people of color, any and all minorities facing oppression. I want us all to have the same access to healthcare and food and respect and so on and so forth, regardless of what we are.

And I want to make sure there is no shame for taking on traditional gender roles - if a woman chooses to wear pink and be a housewife with a white picket fence, that is nothing to be ashamed of, same as if they choose to become [insert traditional male gender role job here].

I am queer, disabled and a woman and the fact that I can pass as normal in some contexts grants me certain securities that I want to be universal. I want passing or not passing to no longer matter.
