The issue is referring to everyone who has a uterus and estrogen dominance as a woman. Trans women often have neither, and therefore dont often need “womens healthcare" despite them being women. Transmasculine people generally have uteruses, so we need what the law often calls “women’s “ healthcare. Yes, cis women have different bodies than trans men, but we both need reproductive healthcare. P.S. be careful referring to transmasculine bodies as “female". AFAB would be more accurate, since

  1. testosterone changes secondary sex characteristics and potentially reproductive capacity, making us not exactly female
  2. female is equated with woman in many many cases, including in legislature, so trans men are considered male and trans women are considered female.
