"We, as the organisations that exist to ensure that the human right of all members of the LGBTIQ community are respected and upheld, our collective call for Mazwai to remove this dangerous post and apologies to the trans community."

Ntsiki has since deleted the tweet saying it was the right thing to do.

Other people have also shared their different views, and here are a few reactions.

@OmniPhiwe commented:

"Ntsiki is not entirely wrong, seems like we are obsessed with opposing nature. 1000 Years from now they'll be a new breed of human, perhaps a dozen of virg*n Marys too."

@Mluko4 said:

"Why should Ntsiki recognize them as women when they aren't?"

@Thekaisertruth wrote:

"Women you are under attack. Soon, men who fail in their fields will change their gender, become women and have it all. Unfortunately, we men cannot play a leading role, it's your fight. You females must lead it."
