I have no idea what there is not to understand about this…and why it’s mostly men complaining about “protecting women’s spaces”, lol.
This might upset some people, and you know what? Good.
If this upsets you, at least the others will know and the trash can take itself out.

I’ve never had a trans person cat call me, sexually harass me, rape me, tell me to smile, tell me I should get in his car, tell me I should suck his dick, put his hand on my thigh, press his body into mine on the bus.
What’s upsetting is you dismissing the real dangers women face in order to turn the conversation from trans issues into crying about your own gender.
Don’t want women to be scared of men? Call out other men instead of scolding women for being scared.
I’ve known many trans people. Not once has one of them harassed me in any way. Men, on the other hand…
Yep! I’ve also never seen trans+ people online aggressively comment on threads making the convo about them or comment minimising and dismissing SA and VAWG.

Men. It’s as easy as that.
Statistics show men are constant threat to women. It’s not even the same, and I say this as a cis man.
Thank you for saying the truth. 1 in every 4 women in the US have been raped.

The answer is to let people use the restroom that they feel fits the best and prosecute the people who predate on others.
It’s not difficult and it’s not confusing.

First off - how dare you take that man vs bear debate and frame women choosing the bear as TERFs.
Second - Restrooms aren’t safe spaces, men have gone into restrooms to assault women before and will continue to do so no matter what sign is on the door.
Third - giving in to our unfounded fears and punishing innocents for our own lack of education isn’t an option. It shouldn’t be an option. Trans women are not inherently dangerous to cis women.

No one is generalizing all men. Statistically, men are a FAR greater threat to women than vice versa. Additionally, men are a far greater threat to cis women than trans women are. It isn’t even close. It isn’t something intrinsic to being a man, or all men, but it is due to a set of societal standards that value men above women.
If you hear women being afraid of men, don’t take it personally. I am afraid of men I don’t know not because all men are dangerous, but because you cannot tell a predator by looking at them. Again, it’s not all men. No one is saying that. It’s just the vast majority of sexual predators are men, and women are statistically much more likely to be in danger from a man. I have been sexually assaulted, and I won’t spare a second thought for the idea that protecting myself might hurt another man’s feelings.
Not all men but always a man.
In this thread: you.
That’s not true and you know it. Don’t spread misinformation; be better than that.
🙄
The vast majority of perpetrators are men and it’s not even close. There, happy?
Yes, much better. Thank you for being better than the one spreading misinformation.
Who’s spreading misinformation…?
The majority of the statements I’ve seen here (not the ones from the now-banned users) have been nothing but truthful
The person I responded to said “always a man.” If that were true then that means a woman has never been a rapist. There is plenty of evidence proving them wrong.
I hope you have this same energy towards comments supporting rapists and don’t save being pedantic for women expressing anger at rape.
Oh no how will you cope with facts?

You know that word has connotations when you use it to describe women.
Removed by mod
Using derogatory terms aimed at cis and trans women isn’t being gender neutral.
Be better.

Well you did literally use it to describe a woman so…
