Can you perhaps mention to them that according to an often-cited survey done by the National Center for Transgender Equality, a trans advocacy group, close to 90% of their beloved TiMs keep their male genitalia and around 63% are attracted to women?

Do you have a link for that? That might be useful for future arguments.

It's the National Center for Transgender Equality 2015 survey. It's available online. It's kind of discredited because of the methodology, however, trans activists cherry pick the numbers from it whenever those numbers support their arguments. This might be the link:

There's another NIH study (IIRC) that had an even higher rate of TiMs who kept their male genitalia; I saw it in an article, but when I clicked on the link the study was gone. Fancy that - the National Institute of Health doesn't want us to know the % of TiMs who keep their dicks...

Another source is this article that appeared in the journal Translational Andrology and Urology in June 2019:

Genital GCS is generally less common than chest surgery, with prevalence rates of ... **5–10% for transgender women (7,9,32). For transgender women, genital GCS comprises a number of procedures, including vaginoplasty (most commonly intestinal or penile inversion) with labiaplasty and/or clitoroplasty, penectomy, and orchiectomy. Transgender women report bottom surgery at rates between 5–13% (7-9,32).

Thanks so much for this. Women, please bookmark because this proves that the TiMs who want access to our, and often our childrens', sex-segregated spaces are still mostly intact males.

I'd also go with the first statement, the one I highlighted, coz it speaks of "prevalence rates" rather than the rates that TIMs report.
