I just believe in equality. And I am sad to hear when anyone wishes to exclude or reject anyone. Trans people have enough challenges placed before them by society. Also as frmr political consultant:when 1 group is suddenly locus of ‘moral panic’ it’s almost always a distraction.
Equality does not mean treating everyone the same. Does excluding men from womens sports make you sad? Does it make you sad that able bodied people are excluded from competing in the Paralympics? Does it make you sad that men are excluded from womens prisons?

If a Man can ID as a women to compete in women’s sport, there is also the same ‘opportunity’ for an able bodied person to ID as disabled because they feel they are and then compete in disabled sports. There is no limits to this harmful ideology.

Not a distraction. It's happening in sports, prisons (e.g., SB-132 California, Canada, UK), short lists (UK), NHS wards (hospitals). Journalists are reporting horrendous, overwhelmingly male pattern crimes, while referring to the alleged as "her" & "she". Orwellian non-fiction.
