A few feminists have been caught in that loop before because it begs the question. I can't remember who it was but on the Whatever podcast some feminists answered that a woman is "someone who feels like a woman", and a Right-winger retorted with "So if a straight White male feels like a woman, he's now a woman?"
I think one of them answered "yes", and -- I'm almost pretty sure it was Michael Knowles -- who asked the follow-up question, "So does that mean he still has the privileges of a straight White male if he identifies as a woman?" and the panel went quiet and was scrambling to find an answer because their definition of a woman contradicted their stance about male privilege if a man can simply identify as a woman if he "feels" like it.
