I think I've said it very clearly. Women and girls are at primary risk in their homes and bedrooms, from family members and acquaintances. Focusing on fantasies of stranger rape suppresses the understanding and ability to address the very real problem you claim to care about.

What an interesting analogy! The biggest threat from guns is in the home, from accident and suicide. But what anti-gun activists do is use the visibility of mass shootings to advocate for policies that will reduce suicides and accidents. You're doing the opposite of that.

I know you did, which is why it's a great opportunity to talk about the difference between gun safety/anti-violence activism and transphobic activists, who obsess about the flashy non-problem in a way that hurts real victims by confusing the public.

If you cared about women you'd find a way to channel transphobic public energy into policies that help women in their homes and families- like gun-safety and anti-gun-violence activists do. It's a great example of how you could be good, but choose not to be.
