      The issue is that there are some people who believe that a person w a male body can be a woman & some people who don't. In a democratic society we can all get along courteously w people we don't share fundamental beliefs w & no one should not be discriminated for their beliefs.

      Unless their beliefs are actively harmful against people, such as homophobia or transphobia or racism or sexism. You know. The thing this conversation is about?

      Your beliefs - that a man magically becomes a woman if he identifies as such and that he should therefore be entitled to enter female only spaces - are actively harming women. It is sexist to demand women give up our rights to placate males.

      Thats not my belief. My belief is that trans women, ie women who were always women/girls but were mistaken for men/boys, are a real thing that really exists. And are included in women's rights because of the whole "woman" part.

      Thats fine you have a right to hold that belief. Just as some people believe that souls are real & others don't. It's not 'phobic' not to share someone's belief.

          Transphobia is defined as prejudice against someone for being trans, in short. It most definitely is phobic to treat trans people badly or have crappy beliefs about us. It's literally what the word means.

          Some people belief gay people are sent by the devil. This belief is a homophobic belief, which you're entitled to have - but it doesn't make it any less homophobic.

          There are ppl who believe that ppl w female bodies (we call them women) shouldnt be forced to share intimate spaces w ppl w male bodies. You don't have to share their belief, but u may need to respect it in practice. Just as you wouldn't force someone who keeps kosher to eat port

          but the question here isnt about whether i would force someone to eat pork - i obviously wouldn't. but should i not be allowed to cook and eat pork just because they don't believe its okay? I don't think so.
