Wait... you listen to women complain about harassment and try to change policy, but advocate for removing their safe spaces? Safe spaces that do a lot to prevent harassment? Do you listen when they say they want female only spaces? Why just harassment? This is confusing. It’s like you’re saying you’ll make it easier for them to get harassed and even violated, but at least you’ll listen to them when they need to talk about it. It’s not a good look.

Rape is inevitable so don’t safeguard, just comfort yourself as much as possible knowing you didn’t hurt anyone’s feelings and prosecute them later. Prosecution is incredibly unlikely? Oh well safeguards are still bad.

Im gonna put ya in danger, and when you inevitably get hurt it’s highly likely that your assailant will get away with it, but if you need to talk about it, I’ll lend an ear (still gonna have to share that bathroom with him tho, sry lol) 💕

That’s another thing- gb said they got assaulted by girls and then had to worry about it happening again, but doesn’t seem to care that now any woman who has been sexually assaulted would have no choice but to be fearful every single time they used any public bathroom or changing room. I don’t understand how you can experience violation and know the fear of knowing you could encounter it again, but be so willing to put others in that position.

Cause gb was assaulted by evil cis’ and doesn’t give a shit about the experiences of other women, only her own trauma. Other women can just sit down and smile like good girls and pray they can afford to press charges and get therapy after an assault.

There’s no way to prevent this because crime stats are less important than gbs experience. Either she’s unwilling or unable to put aside her emotions and think about how others might be harmed. Scary that this emotional block is so common.

She seems to think females and males are equally dangerous and sex seggregated spaces don't deter predators. Honestly, I think some women just take the safeguarding provided for such spaces for granted.
