Is there a feminist or group of feminists who is/are prepared to sit down with me & have a discussion about the issues surrounding trans women? I really don’t want to misrepresent either side in this.

Do you mean any feminist, or specifically an anti trans feminist? Because the latter are by no means all of the former (Indeed I know many trans feminists). Brave of you to offer yourself up to the lions den tho.

I need lions! Of course, I realise the difference but I need to understand those feminists who deny the existence of trans women.

No existence is denied, but the hyperbole and accusations of bigotry have led to this view. I personally believe gender is damaging and limiting nonsense. Few female spaces we have r there for a reason, as some women are vulnerable, and because of male violence.

And http://terfisaslur.com is worth a browse to see the abuse aimed at gender critical women. Plus of course actual harassment and violence.

And there are examples of violence and intimidation in the other direction, I am told. To say there is no violence other than male violence is not credible. Overwhelming it is male violence but not exclusively.

Your slip is showing. 'I am told' is not good enough. If you state that publicly you should have done the research to back it up. Perhaps also consult with
