How was that not self defense? I really mean this, they prosecute the innocent and conspire with the guilty every single time. The recent revelations about the Assange case only show how clear that axiom of mine is.

That's our future if as many of us who can don't start speaking out - charged with a hate crime for protecting ourselves/our children from a creepy man in a deserted dodgy park bathroom.

I genuinely believe part of the problem is a lack of societal awareness of autogynephilia. These attempts at getting bathroom access aren't just about feeling comfortable; it's being used as a means for men who fetishize being female to get a sexual thrill by forcing other females to tolerate their presence and thus act as mental masturbatory aids. It's unbelievably rapey to suggest that women must offer themselves up as unwilling participants in someone else's sexual fantasies, regardless of whether or not they're aware it's happening.

I always bring up the fact that 89-95% of TiMs in the US keep their male genitalia, and that, according to trans advocacy group, National Center for Transgender Equality, close to 2/3rds of TiMs are attracted to women (from their own 2015 survey).

But it's not just TiMs that these laws allow into women AND children's sex-segregated spaces - ANY and EVERY man, and ANY GROUP OF MEN, can self-identify into women's and children's safe spaces.

That a group of men can do this freaks most normal people out.

And the fact that they can use their boundless entitlement to get lesbian spaces as well as female spaces like rape shelters shut down, then brag openly on social media about it (Ronan the Ogre, anyone?) is especially galling.

I think it's going to take a lot of Wi Spa incidences to get the population truly riled up. How many kids and women are going to suffer trauma before critical anger is reached? Makes me so angry that politicians don't even have the common sense to think about what happens when men are allowed into women's spaces. Or that they don't care.
