      I’m chiefly concerned about ensuring the safety of women and girls against male violence, to be honest.

      Brian, it’s not just that. It’s about comfort, peace of mind, dignity and privacy. Not having “woman/girl/female ” forcibly redefined by males to mean nothing. No more right to feel relaxed, comfortable amongst females where we feel vulnerable.

      Ironically I’ve met many transgender women who transitioned because they didn’t feel comfortable, have peace of mind, feel relaxed around men. They wanted to be more accepted by other women by becoming a woman. And most say the majority of women accept them as such.

      You are placing a burden upon women to be accepting of people who pose a real risk. Sex-based facilities are there when we are menstruating, changing, with kids, vulnerable. We can’t be made responsible for the feelings of dysphoric men. Our world should get more safe, not less.

      Most genuine trans women do not pose a threat to women.

      Absolutely - but this woman is not worried about genuine cases. It's the opportunist males that concern me. Proposed changes to the GRA will throw open the doors to them. It's naive to underestimate the lengths to which predators will go to gain access to vulnerable females.

          We need a way of enforcing female-only space. It's incumbent on everyone who supports self-ID & claims it won't diminish women's right to single-sex space to come up with answers. Female-only service-providers need an objective way of identifying natal males. What do you suggest?

          That might have worked when we were talking about 5,000 transsexuals. We are now talking about 500,000 'trans' who want self-ID. Perhaps 250,000 men who want access to women's facilities. Only 5,000 of them are transsexuals. The rest have no surgery. https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1014593708904329216.html …

          So you are going to interview a quarter of a million men to find out if they can be trusted in women's toilets, in changing rooms with children? The fact that they don't have dysphoria and they want access might be a clue.

          It will be up to receptionists and other front line staff to do those on-the-spot interviews, with the threat of being hounded out of their jobs by activists if they get it wrong hanging over them.
