Not insisting they need to get over it. Insisting they don't use their fear as justification for denying protection to trans women.https://twitter.com/vaginaperson/status/908631828138950656 …
The way you say it could sound dismissive, yes, so don't do that. Obv, I don't think dysphoria is a mental illness.

I'm not arguing abt that. Tedious & much more complex. OK, in future I'll recommend rape victims don't try to recover but give up on life.

This is a vile thread. Women who have been assaulted by men have every right to expect a small # of specific areas to be "male free".
-
Not at the expense of providing same service for men. Same principle with someone who has been assaulted by a black person. Work past it.

In your world a rape victim couldn't ask for a male gyn, she'd have to "work past it"?
-
No. That would be an accommodation. However, she should still try to work past it. Coz the alternative is not trying to recover & that's bad

I think it is reasonable to have sex differentiated bathrooms and locker rooms. No one is saying that men have to clear a 3 mi radius.
-
OK. Although it gets complicated when it comes to bathrooms coz passing trans women don't cause alarm but passing trans men do.
