You’ve asked me to prove a negative in relation to your assertion, and I’ve declined more than once. Still you’ve answered my question in a way I suppose, and it’s a clear “yes.”

Do you believe that the only people you’ll find if you look for women concerned with this law, are transphobic women?

JK Rowling can blow it out of her many gaping sphincters, and the existence of transphobes like her doesn’t invalidate the concerns of women who aren’t scumbags.

When did I say that I have concerns? I quoted an article in which people who are not me expressed concerns, I can’t read their minds.

> Ha yes, the good old trope that transwoman are easily recognizable. The thing is they most likely already met a transwoman out and about but they just didn't realize it.

Please don’t put words in my mouth, especially words like that.

Believe it or not, acting in bad faith because you assume I must be too is not really the basis for anything constructive.

It’s unfortunate that you’re ignoring 99% of what I’m writing in favor of sentence fragments and whatever you believed coming into this.

> Human rights of women will not suddenly become null and void because a transwoman who had a sex change operation will be sent to a woman shelter instead of a man shelter after having been attacked.

Did anyone claim that?

> Or do you believe that trans people should be segregated from the rest of society?

As a cis man I don’t feel it’s my place to tell cis women that they need to suck it up and just get over whatever trauma they might have around AMAB people, “for the cause.”

These aren’t my concerns, I’m not a woman and never had to fight for things like a safe space for my gender, and I won’t pretend to speak for them. I’m familiar with the debate however, which usually centers on rape crisis centers, gender-segregated accommodations on trains, and similar situations. The concern isn’t about assault, and frankly I think the concerns are overblown, but as I’ve said… my experience in life is profoundly different from a woman traumatized by men. For me there’s no problem accepting trans women as women, but again, I have the privilege of having no baggage with AMAB people.

Who’s talking about rape? The whole “trans rapist” line is almost exclusively a disingenuous and bigoted talking point and I never raised it.

Their profit motive is their problem, why are you so energetically simping for it on their behalf?

> Some campaigners, however, believe that allowing people to "self-identify" could have an impact on rights that women have fought for decades to secure. There is also concern about the impact on women-only spaces, including changing rooms, hospitals and refuges.

Are there any protections in place to assure that doesn’t happen?
