Don't get me wrong - I'm probably about as ardent a feminist as you
can get. I'm not talking about the average feminist that believes in
social and political equality, but rather the ones who want to define
who can be feminine - or more particularly female - in a way that
suits their particular ideology.
If you can get past the author's condescending attitude and slightly
rude language, she's actually trying to make a coherent argument - and
sadly misses some key points in her fervent desire to prove how evil
transgender people are for feminism.

Just absolutely wonderfully reasoned and certainly cracks the mirror of mAndrea's hardcase shell. What will she do without her mirror?
Nevermind, I'm willing to bet the answer will be to come back very forcefully with an even more demeaning analysis than her previous two. Come to think of it, TS is pretty much all mAndrea writes about. To stop or change her mind would leave her one bereft blogger.
