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 feminist is denying the existence of Transfolk Brian

I’m sick to death of “all” this “no one” that. It’s simply not true. For the umpteenth time, this is what someone DM’d me: “Hello Brian, I'm a feminist, a lesbian and I don't acknowledge the existence of trans. Contact me if you fancy a chat Regards ...”

It’s quite possibly a question of semantics. For eg, I do not believe in Christ, but clearly Christians exist. I think the term is based on a false premise - some might potentially express that as Christians “not existing”.

I accept that but my point is different. People should speak for themselves. Unless they’ve asked every woman, feminist, man, whatever, they cannot say “no feminist thinks x” or even “the majority of feminists think x”. “I’ve never met a violent woman”
“Women aren’t violent”

Also, I have yet to see any violent threats from so called TERFS to Transfolk or Transactivists. I have seen dozens and dozens of death, rape and violent threats against women. This has spilled over into real life on at least 3 occasions.These are all personal observations/ views
