I am a woman & I like to be transformed into a smartphone.

I think by "real women" they mean biological/genetic women. As to
differentiate from transgendered women and also men that say
they're women.

Easiest thing to do to avoid confusing and offence is probably to
just say cis-women. That doesn't strike me as a very hard thing to
do.

mwf2ffan #8 does use the term "cisgendered" in the post where s/he
uses the term "real women". I understood the modifier "real"
distinguish posters who identify as women in real life
from those who adopt the persona of a woman on line.
As for whether in-real-life women read and post here, yes -- some
do. As mwf2ffan suggests, though, there is very little to be gained
by identifying yourself as a woman on-line. It isn't just here, on
this board -- its everywhere.
My experience; when I post it is presumed that I am a straight
white male unless and until I say otherwise. Unless my gender,
race, national origin. etc. is pertinent to the discussion, I do
not go out of my way identify.
The casual homophobia and sexism that creeps into on-line
discussions is irritating, but there is little to be gained by
confronting EVERY instance. I try to pick opportune moments,
offering information or opinions when it seems like the person with
whom I am corresponding might be open to conversation, rather than
trying to bully me out the tribe to which he thinks I do not
belong.
To the OP's question, there is a toxic misogyny and cis-sexism that
sometimes
manifests with (presumably cis-male) fans and producers of TG
fiction. It is not universal -- nor even very common -- but you
will see it in almost any thread about gender confirming medical
procedures (GRS or SRS for those of us of a certain age). It
frequently surfaces in "why do you like TG fiction" threads. It
only takes one encounter with this for an IRL woman to decide to
keep quite about her gender when posting here.

Woman
Trans-woman
Those are the only two there are.

Well being as certain people spit the term "cis-gendered" with
venom every time they do I think I'll be using that one quite
sparingly.
