Man hid in cubicle, attempted to rape woman

@Popchyk - the mother of the child assaulted by that man who claims to be a woman - Katie Dolatowski - that you linked to was complaining in Feb 19 about the pathetic community order he received for the terrifying attack on her daughter. An article in the same paper on April 19 shows that he was already regularly breaching the terms of his community order: www.thecourier.co.uk/fp/news/local/fife/866968/sex-offender-who-targeted-young-children-in-fife-supermarket-toilets-given-jail-warning-for-breaching-strict-community-order/

What the fuck does it take to jail these monsters? And when the fuck will newspapers please STOP insulting us by calling these male sex offenders 'women'?

Upz I doubt you'd have crossed the road to avoid a mum and toddlers of that ethnic group, or an elderly couple, or a teenaged girl, you were using your pattern recognition skills to keep yourself safe. Trauma 101.

Women having basic pattern recognition skills isn't a hate crime against men.

Horrendous we had similar cases here. One was a young girl 6 or 7 raped in the toilets of a dance studio she was attending. The toilets were not in the studio but the building it was located in. Once realising she had not returned to class a search was undertaken and two men came across her and broke into the toilet cubicle to rescue her one of whom was stabbed in the process. He survived thankfully, one was (not sure if the one that was stabbed) an ex pro boxer. How he restrained himself enough for the offender to remain alive I’ll never know.

Matter is now in court and of course the offender was on parole for several sexual assaults. The justice system in my country is fubar 😡.

In the Livingston one, he'd followed a woman into the women's toilets in January. Then spied on her. Staff were informed and police called.

Then he followed a 7 year old into the women's toilets and sexually assaulted her a month later in the same restaurant.

So the staff didn't challenge him before he attacked the girl, even though police had been called previously.

This is what happens when you normalise men hanging around women's toilets.

To be clear, I am not blaming the staff (who were probably different people on shift to the previous incident), but we are rapidly creating a culture where strange men hanging around women's toilets makes people too scared to intervene in case they get accused of a hate crime against the man. Even if the man had been accused of voyeurism previously in another incident at your own premises.

The original post is about a pub near me. It is very traditional and the car park is shared with parents dropping their daughters off to rainbows, brownies and guides.

This is why single sex toilets must be maintained.

So - completely pre-meditated. None of this “Oh I was overcome by my gender dysphoria” rubbish.

#Waronwomen indeed

Yes popchyk, this never happens!

Read in the Edinburgh news he was found to be carrying in his bag a multi lock knife, a 44 mm serated blade, a pair of latex gloves and a bottle of lubricant.

Thank f*%& he's locked up prior to sentencing.

Another day, another assault in the women's toilets.

Oh, but This Never Happens.

Be quiet women, just shut up and move over.

Upzadaizy I don't think your trauma response is racist, I think that's a complete misuse of the word 'racist'. If you'd been bitten by a German shepherd dog, you'd probably be more frightened of German shepherd dogs than of labradors, for instance. If you'd been badly burnt as a child, you'd be fearful of fire and not water. You can't rationalise trauma away. All those people who told you you were being racist should just fuck right off.

Another day, another assault in the women's toilets.

This time a 7 year old.

"A SEX fiend was caught with a knife, gloves and lube in his bag after trying to force a seven-year-old girl's trousers down in a Livingston restaurant toilet cubicle".

www.thescottishsun.co.uk/news/4377060/sex-attack-schoolgirl-restaurant-cubicle-livingston-knife-lube/

He'd followed a woman into the same women's toilets before.

"He also pled guilty to following a woman into the female toilets at the restaurant in Livingston on January 13, entering the middle cubicle next to her and watching her as she used the toilet".

But rest assured people. This never happens.

Another day another perv in the women's toilets.

A serial sex pest is facing jail after being caught perving in the women's toilets in a supermarket.

"Jonathan Stirland, defending, insisted his client had been falsely identified as the man spotted peeping underneath the cubicle.

He said: "It's not the defence's case that somebody didn't look, it's the defence's case it was not the defendant.

On the charge of observing a private act for sexual gratification, Mr Stirland added: "You are making a quantum leap to conclude there could be no other reason why a person could find themselves in that situation."

There was CCTV of him going in, and the defence were still denying it. He'd probably have got away with it if there hadn't been CCTV.

This is the same guy.

Sorry to go OT, but re KD (1) they didn't stop and (2) it was reported as a crime by a woman and (3) STILL no custodial sentence www.thecourier.co.uk/fp/news/local/fife/866968/sex-offender-who-targeted-young-children-in-fife-supermarket-toilets-given-jail-warning-for-breaching-strict-community-order/

Thanks, Popchyk I suppose I was thinking out loud about the interaction between my personal responses and my own personal politics and ethics. I’d like to think I try - as much as the next person, I’m not perfect - to be as open and non-discriminatory as possible. But for a couple of years it was quite difficult.

But it was several years ago and in another country.

However, a couple of times when I’ve talked about that experience, I’ve been told my trauma response was racist. Well, yes it was, but it was also self-defensive.

Similarly, most women are cautious around unknown men in certain situations. Because of our experiences of harassment and/or assault.

It’s tough for all men to understand this, particularly the “good” ones who would never dream of violence against women.

But I think we have to be tough back, and say tat this is the price of masculine privilege. And that men need to take on the burden of calling out and stopping such behaviour by other men.

I think that this is what a lot of transwomen and transactivists just don’t get - they don’t have the physical bodily experiences of growing up as a girl or the bodily experiences of being female.

The judge said that he was prohibited from loitering outside women’s toilets or using mixed sex changing facilities (in the link about his sentencing).

I am sorry that happened to you, Upzadaisy.

Your reaction to that horrible event is perfectly natural and understandable.

I was violently assaulted on the street once, by a man who was very identifiably of a specific racial/ethnic group.

As well as the PTSD flashback dreams (vivid neon of the assault) and a heightened fear of walking alone after dark in that city, I tended to avoid men of that racial group - I’d cross the road, go out of my way to get away etc.

I knew at the time that this was racist, but it was my response to trauma. I needed to do it for my own well-being.

This is so distressing. Look what the poor victim says:

The day I was attacked, I lost my freedom. I lost my identity. I no longer feel safe. I cannot go out after dark on my own. Every man I pass on the street is a potential threat.

And now victims of rape or attempted rape are being gaslit by organisations like Womens Aid or Rape Crisis, that the men who inveigle their way into those organisations aren't fetishists who get excited by women's suffering, but women whom they are not allowed to have a trauma response to lest that makes them a bigot.

And then there are those male individuals who just wait outside until a young girl goes in, for example. How can you challenge someone if you don't know that they are there? And if he follows you in, you won't be able to get past him to get out. And how exactly do we expect 10 year old girls to challenge adult males anyway?

Katie Dolatowski, a male person who identifies as a woman, deliberately followed two young girls into the women's toilets in order to assault them. This was in Scotland earlier this year. The girls presumably were completely unaware that KD was following behind them. The girls referred to KD as a man.

www.thecourier.co.uk/fp/news/local/fife/819644/mum-of-supermarket-toilet-sex-assault-victim-warns-freed-attacker-could-strike-again/

Oh and there was no prison time for these offences. Dolatowski was subsequently sent to a female-only hostel with a shared bathroom.

But of course we're told this never happens.

I should point out that the perpetrator here is not trans; this has more to do with the lengths some men will go to to attack women. While there are men who behave like this, how can it be safe to allow self-identified ‘women’ into female spaces?

I think that's a really to-the-point question.

If self-ID is allowed, how can women challenge obvious men in single-sex, women-only spaces?

It's not just the rare unbalanced mentally unstable transwomen (such as @TownTattle - I'm not using the name they stole from an eminent lesbian-feminist) who try to or have actually attacked women (eg the attack on Maria McLachan) - it's the licence that transactivist stridency allows men who simply hate women & want to attack them in any way.

God, How terrifying.
Thank goodness the other woman came in.

It was Women’s toilets and he had hidden himself in there.

One issue is that in single sex toilets, if a man is seen in there, everyone knows they are up to no good, so to be wary, run out, alert management or whatever.

If women/ young girls go into women’s toilets where self id’d Trans women looking like the person who lunged at Julie Bindel (full beard etc) are expected to be there is no way to tell if a male-presenting person is up to no good or simply exercising their right to use Women’s toilets.

Yes, the first attack (by Kelsey Jones) was in the women's toilets.

details of the attack

"He claimed he was using his mobile phone and went into the wrong toilets. He was embarrassed when the woman came into the bathroom, and when she confronted him he fell onto her in the cubicle.

Judge Rees said the jury had found his account unbelievable , and found him guilty of attempted rape, false imprisonment and assault occasioning actual bodily harm".

In the other case, Lewis Foord attacked a female care worker in Foord's home. He has previous convictions for two assaults on carers.

www.leaderlive.co.uk/news/17686239.wrexham-teenager-sent-down-after-sexually-assaulting-care-worker/

And with the Lewis Foord case, yet another young man who has been in care, now claims to identify as female and has sexually assaulted a young woman.

Is there nobody who is joining any dots? At all?

Why exactly are so many young people in care identifying as the opposite sex?

This poor woman. I hope she finds some peace, and that this violent perp never does...
