Well of course GCers are uncomfortable around trans people because y'all hate us. That's not surprising. Y'all speak up on here but there's literally no reason anyone should be afraid of me, if someone angrily confronted me I would just leave. I don't benefit from male violence; men direct it at me too. I don't harass anyone I am just done being too terrified to go out in public. I can only use those spaces because I transitioned and take hormones and voice trained, not because of others' actions.

How many times do you need to be told that no one here personally hates you? We've given you a lot of explanations and examples for why including TW in women's bathrooms (and other women's spaces) hurts women. We've explained to you why the material reality of sex is more important than how people perceives themselves and others. You just keep refusing to actually listen to anything we've to say and, instead, you choose to believe our disagreements are rooted in us having an irrational hate for you and other people like you. You keep insisting than you are a "woman", yet you are completely unable to justify the claim beyond stating your wish for it to be true. And in spite of the lack of explanations for your own "identity" you believe everyone has the duty to perceive you as you perceive yourself and behave accordingly.

I don't need to. Any more than anyone else here does, I simply am.

Y'all have mainly given a ton of fearmongering and hate stirring mostly over those in totally different situations like prisons. It's not like you listen to me either, when I tell you that trans people have been using the bathroom for decades and that it was never a problem before... We are just talking past each other.

I can easily explain why I am woman. Because of biology, it's that simple. I am adult human female.

It has always been a problem! The only reason you face more vocal opposition right now is because you (general you) cannot hide your actions anymore because the number of people like you keeps increasing and because you all are quite vocal about it with some of you even taking selfies of their adventures into women's restrooms. And of course internet makes easier for women to spread the word in spite of how much Big Tech try to supress dissenting voices. And of course, you have all the TRAs starting a witch hunt anytime they a woman speaking out about males using spaces designed for women.

I'm a woman trapped in biology that doesn't match what I am, then.

Yeah I've always found that weird I don't get why people would have their phone out in a bathroom at all.

And of course, you have all the TRAs starting a witch hunt anytime they a woman speaking out about males using spaces designed for women.

What about y'all starting a witch hunt every time any organization says anything positive about a trans woman? Like Emily Bridges' interview or a trans woman EMT who was piled on just for dating to be trans.

Yeah people should speak out against efforts to cast trans women as men

the number of people like you keeps increasing

You know that when society became a bit less homophobic, or at least after marriage equality here, the number of LGB people went up, because it wasn't as shameful to be LGB. It's the same for trans people now, I think. I wouldn't have been able to be trans if I hadn't learned it was a thing one could be.
