I’m a gay man. AMA

[EcoCleaner]

Gay, spent much of my formative years on “the scene”, Irish catholic family on my side and Muslim in-laws.

Ask me anything.

[Unicyclethief]

I don’t think there are many women who would have a problem with a trans man in women’s spaces because they are women.

[Shriekingbanshee]

Was that last to me uni I was talking bout trans woman who is just completely male. Nothing female about him, just he says he is. Sounds looks and is male, but calls himself female when clearly isn't female. Maybe I miswrote something?

[Shriekingbanshee]

If trans man, with physical changes, male lowered vocal chords range and muscular frame etc, would be scarey, not sure why you would say that. It's similarity to men that's the issue, as well as ability to use penis to dominate and intimidate women with predatory behaviour, for me, and others.
Women and DC in refuge will often freeze or be too scared to say anything so how is this OK to force upon the vulnerable

I’m straight and don’t even know that many gay people but even I know that gay does not equal bum sex.

What a strange thread. Shouldobe surprised, MNers are obsessed with bumholes.

My question for op is do you look forward to a time when no one cares (unless they want to sleep with you) what your sexual orientation is. Coming out or being outed can be a thing of the past. Do you feel this time is coming?

[Unicyclethief]

No, shrieking, that was to the OP, who asked if women would object to trans men in women only spaces.

[TheOnlyLivingBoyInNewCross]

Do you not feel that it is hypocritical to declare that transwomen are women and transmen are men but that you wouldn’t have sex with a pre-op transman because you’re not turned on by vaginas? Do you honestly not see how very transphobic that makes you in the current climate, despite all your virtue-signalling?

Cotton ceiling !

Why do you find it 'shocking' that some women don't want to share intimate spaces with the sex that commits 98% of all sexual violence? I guess being unable to comprehend why that would be an issue is an example of the male privilege you deny having.
