/u/NoMorePatriarchy /u/Jackalope /u/BossBrick I'm following up on our earlier discussion. This person is an example of a man that is invading women's spaces. He's a biological man that is showing great disrespect to women. He shouldn't even be posting on the 2X sub in the first place. His stated desire to shower with women is a sexual perversion. It's not at all about how he identifies but is instead about invading women's privacy. His response to being told this shows that he is delusional. He doesn't respect women so I don't respect him.

I suspect you might be right about this person, but it's hard to screen for motivation, and would this really make a difference to the women who have to shower with someone who was born as a man, and do not hold the same beliefs about the fluidity of gender?

What about a woman who is actually a woman, but is a lesbian, and desires to shower out of lust as well?

To me this is a much larger issue. There is a difference between tolerating something and being forced to participate in it, and I think that is what makes this problematic. This person is not actually a woman in the strict biological sense, and while people should tolerate a game of pretend, they should not be forced to participate in one. If society is going to have separate showers for males and females, people using those showers ought to be able to have the expectation that there will be only males/females in the shower, and should not be forced to give up that right. Otherwise it would make more sense to just have unisex showers and bathrooms, if we are all so enlightened now that we no longer care about this.

Are you going to acknowledge that he's a straight man, a heterosexual male such as yourself? And that he identifies as a lesbian? Are you going to acknowledge that 90% of these guys are straight guys such as yourself?

I have no idea. I also don't think it matters, they aren't women, so they shouldn't be showering in the women's room.

I think we both understand that it matters a great deal. These people arent doing this because theyre gay. Over 90% of "trans" people tend to be heterosexual men such as yourself who are still attracted to women without an atom's worth of homosexuality within them.

This isnt some sort of new liberal ideology. Liberalism might create a permissive space to encourage this because liberals are "tolerant", but what traumatizes these men to do this is the psychotic ideology of heterosexualism that regulates how heterosexuals practice their gender identity.

Work on fixing that instead of looking for scapegoats. This has been going on since the 70's.

There are actual videos of these straight men who identify as "lesbians" beating gays and lesbians up at pride parades for not accepting them. Maybe show some sympathy towards heterosexual males and help them out so they dont turn out this way.

Unfortunately, this fetish usually starts when they are teenagers stealing their mother's or sister's underwear. What can you do you to stop it if no one knows it's happening. Personal choice is a factor here.

Also most of these guys have personality disorders. It's not just their environment, they have internal issues as well. If it wasn't dressing up as a woman it would likely be another fetish.

It’s heterosexualism. Of course heterosexuality is real but the ideology they attach to their sexuality to viciously regulate it leads to this.

These people are so easily defeated by trans rights activists because they want to pretend it’s just misogyny but then ignore that there’s an army of heterosexual women doing the same thing.

Personal choice is a factor. But it’s only a factor in choosing to express it or not.
