How am I stopped from leading a normal life?

Is the point of such a shelter to provide refuge for women? Or for anyone who's suffered domestic violence?
-
The latter, surely! People need refuge if they are in danger, not if they have vaginas.
-
You never answered my question why some trans are not happy with gender neutral facilities btw? If safety is the actual concern?
-
That is a different issue. I am not making this argument and do not support people who do.
-
But it matters. People do so there's no concerted lobbying for trans safe spaces. They are more interested in pushing into women's instead.

Why not lobby for their own then? Why do women have to give up their spaces? Why are gender neutral toilets not good enough for some trans?
-
It's not self-evident that refuges should exclude trans women in the first place or that only people with vaginas are entitled to protection
-
Nobody says only bio women are entitled to protection. Some men (including TW) encounter DV. You just don't house them in the same places.

So should domestic violence refuges then lump all victims together? Women, trans women, even men who have suffered domestic violence?
-
It would be ideal to have a variety & enough for everyone. Until then, ethically, they should be for vulnerable ppl regardless of genitalia
