      You are not listening. We are talking about hundreds of thousands of women pushed out of public life, and that's just to start with, and you couldn't care less.

      If I wasn’t listening, I wouldn’t be asking questions. I have asked why they are being pushed out of public life and I’m not getting an answer. What proposed changes to the GRA will force “hundreds of thousands” of women out of public life?

      If males are allowed access to female only space that drives women out of public spaces. Especially, but not exclusively, women who, because of cultural norms, are unable to share intimate space with males.

      Males are not going to be allowed into female only spaces as a result of proposed changes to the GRA. And what female only spaces are public spaces necessary for women to participate in public life?

      Males who identify as female, no matter if they have honest intentions and are genuine or not, are still male. Many women are not comfortable with males in private female spaces for a multitude of reasons. It's rational and we should not be the ones having to justify it.

      This is a transgender man. You’ll allow this guy in your women-only spaces because, according to you, he’s female. So how do you tell the difference between this guy & a non-trans man intent on causing women harm? Anyway, it still has nothing to do with the GRA changes.pic.twitter.com/CR27Eqkocy

          Your basic assumption is that looks rather than reproductive capacity determine sex, which is, er, sexist. But yes we would for all the reasons @MadamBiro has mentioned. Plus we tackle ROGD and the lack of good role models for young butch lesbians.

          Please highlight where I’ve made that assumption. My point is access to women-only safe spaces is, in reality, determined by looks & if you’re prepared to let this guy in, how do you keep predatory men out?

          Well, you've posted a picture of a passing transman, who is in fact female. The point would be that many trans people don't pass, first of all, so making it looks-based is genuinely transphobic. But in any case, if the trans community is growing and we want to maintain sex-...

          ..based protections, then I don't see how you can avoid the addition of a mixed sex single-cubicle space. I would guess this person would prefer to go to the men's, but I am not going to force men to accept them, and also the poorly passing transmen.

          It's irrelevant how they look: self-ID requires no physical changes! You may not know Alex Drummond who, as a transwoman, is far more masculine than the person in your pic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JkK7zisjoDk … Here's the first Dane to 'become a woman' under self-ID.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NDrhMrqBe48 …

          Also, most transmen don't seek to attack women. They're closer in size and socialisation to other natal females. I'd feel much safer with a transman in my female-only space than many of the violent, women-hating transwomen who threaten and abuse women. https://gendertrender.wordpress.com/2018/06/30/a-message-to-terf-and-other-transphobes/ …

          It's not "according to us". This person is female, despite appearances. Why should the law perpetuate falsehoods such as the denial of biological sex? Truth matters for its own sake.

          That ‘according to you’ is ludicrous. There were no terfs in the womb deciding sex at conception 🙄

          Woman self police the ladies. It's true! So currently, as things were, if someone did not belong in the ladies. We had the 'power' to question them and kick then out. This was our space and in our control. We no longer have that. Questioning anyone is bigotry.

          So in the old days I could say. Hey dude. What you doing in the ladies? Your surfer dude would reply 'I'm a transman', okay... Cool! Even, in some cases, I am a transwomen. Cool! BUT Now anyone can come in and we cannot question it. That removes our ONLY safety control. Gone!

          No, according to biology she is a woman, all the surgeries and hormones won't change that. Any more than they could make this woman an actual dragon. If she wants to live as a man, fair enough, and she should be protected from harm but not at the cost of other peoples rights.pic.twitter.com/dPtPOnpvDI

          I know of trans men who would prefer to be house in a female prison, rather than be at risk of male abuse, assault in male prisons. I’m talking about transmen with double mastectomy and decades of testosterones.
