Hmm, topic, let's see, what single sex spaces could a woman possibly want or need? Well, maybe none of these apply to you in particular, but they certainly apply to many, many other women:
- Rape crisis counselling/sexual abuse support groups
- women's refuges for victims of DV
- a female HCP to do your smear test
- a female carer to look after your elderly mother's intimate care when she can no longer wash herself (or potentially your own, come to that, in the fullness of time)
- changing rooms/shower facilities at those gyms and health clubs where it's all open plan and no cubicles
- sporting events where physical size and strength is a major advantage
- a prison cell, in the unfortunate event of being imprisoned
- and of course education and training opportunities in fields where women have been historically under-represented, and where a predominantly male culture can often be intimidating to women.
Just a few.
These rights and protections are all under threat at the moment, with the proposed legislative changes this government wants to push through. The meaning of the word "woman" is currently being redefined to mean not just "adult human female" as it used to, but also "any adult human male who says he identifies as a woman".
No need for surgery (the vast majority of transwomen still have their penis); no need for hormones unless you really want them; no need to change the way you dress - you can even keep your beard if you want to (google Alex Drummond if you don't believe me) - and you can still claim you're a woman.
"Women" with beards and/or penises are already using women's changing rooms and women's refuges in the US; "women" rapists are already being housed in women's prisons here in the UK as well as the US, Australia, and god knows where else; "women" who lived four decades as men are taking awards meant to promote women in leadership.
You're either one of those women who doesn't yet know about this, or you know and you don't care. If you didn't know before, you do now. If you don't care, that's your problem, nothing anyone else can do about that.
