Anti trans debate

I’ve noticed on mumsnet there’s a strong feminist anti trans stance. That’s fine in theory, but I’m surprised these topics affect so many people. In my day to day life I never experience any push/agenda! Where is this happening?

Huh? Where do you see anger?

I'd have thought it natural and obvious that I'd be passionate about defending women's rights & autonomy as female humans.

I guess not, as all I have had is angry responses for asking a genuine question. What is it you’ve experienced? What inspires you to be so passionate about this?

@Hepwo ok fair enough. I suppose I’m just surprised at the widespread anger directed to what I perceive to be a relatively small group of people with loud voices. It’s enabling a platform and voice

What does your last sentence mean? What's enabling which platform, whose voice?

I haven't come across "day to day" a pregnant postmistress sent to prison but I'm still angry it happened.

Oh dear, @Beedleneedle ! You'll need to try harder than that.
