Trans only spaces

Apparently trans people are such a significant minority that we can change the way women are referred to in common parlance on their account.

Aren't they therefore significant enough to warrant the inclusion of 'trans only' spaces?
Specifically for pre op trans people.

Why isn't this sermingly a consideration?
It would certainly remedy a lot of this mess we seem to be in at present.

So TRAs are dictating to us?

Who allows them this privilege?

Well thats it then.

They're not logical, therefore they are wrong. Let's tell everybody this exact fact.

Illogical TRAs are wrong.
Fact.
Because logic.

Seems simple enough....

But Transwomen are women. No debate.

To suggest being a woman is related to biology or physicality is literal violence, transphobic and denying their very right to exist.

It also apparently makes you obsessed with genitals Confused

OP you are using logical arguments
The self ID supporters don't do logic, or biology.

or we could just have cis only spaces.
They can take the female changing rooms.
Be my guest ladies, we'll be over in the cis spaces with our xx chromosomes, having lost the battle semantically but won the fucking war.

Its not transphobic though is it?

Its recognising the needs of trans people to have their own spaces until they can fully transition.

If they were women it woyldn't be transphobia would it?
The good old fashioned word misogyny would work if they were women.
Which they aren't in any physical sense owing to their penises.

So, they should have their own spaces owing to their own particular physicality.

Surely?

OP this what they don't want

They want access to women's spaces because they have laydee brains.

I believe it's seen as transphobic by TRAs, because they are women, so don't need a separate space.
