Ah, screw it. I'll let the male entitlement win out and continue posting on my own little thread and not elsewhere. I really don't have anything to lose that I haven't already lost! I'll address anyone who asks me questions, and ignore the rest.
And really, if you honestly think I came on to a board with a long and convoluted scheme in order to pick up gender critical feminists who fundamentally disagree with me via private messaging, then I despair of humanity. By all means report me.
Helmetbymidnight So you're a man campaigning for men to go into women's bathrooms, changing rooms, hospital wards, prisons, all-women shortlists and sports?
No. I am advocating for unisex or private facilities where that's possible, and sex segregated spaces where that's reasonable and proportional. For bathrooms, the status quo is that there is no law pertaining to them, and that people go to the facility that matches their gender. I would oppose a change in law which made sex segregated public bathrooms a legal requirement.
bellinisurge And so a man with a penis can go into a women's bathroom while I am there, or my mum is, or my daughter is, because he feels like a woman. And you don't see the problem with that?
They currently do, and in general if you can see genitals in a bathroom, there is something very wrong going on. Have you found that to be an issue for you? But yes, I am perfectly happy with transwomen sharing a public bathroom with my daughter or my wife or other women I know, and they are happy with it to.
TellsEveryoneRealFacts If you switch gender identity for race, you'll get a clearer idea of my position. If someone posted on twitter "I would never sleep with an Asian person" with no context, I think that would be wrong. But if you were asked in another context, you might answer.
Will you just stop conflating gender for race! They are two completely different issues.
It's an analogy. I am not conflating them, I am comparing them. It's OK not to be attracted to someone because of protected characteristics, but going out of your way to post apropos of nothing on a public forum is very different to expressing your view when asked.
multivac But your insistence that ‘transwomen are women’ leaves you with a bit of a problem, doesn’t it, OP? Because if definition 1. is correct, you aren’t heterosexual, as you are a man, transwomen are women, and you are not sexually attracted to transwomen. And if definition 2 is correct, you aren’t heterosexual either, because you identify as a man, a transwoman identifies as a woman, and you are not sexually attracted to transwoman. Same applies to both categories in definition 3.
I am not attracted to transmen, regardless of whether they have a penis, because I am not attracted to people of the same gender. If I met a transwoman, and didn't know she was a transwoman, I might well be attracted to her, but I would not want to sleep with her because I like vulvas.
Takinrujomu What is a non-trans woman?
I think I answered this already. It's a womean who was assigned female at birth.
TellsEveryoneRealFacts So there’s a difference between non-trans women and trans women but no difference between women and trans women?
No. Women encompasses transwomen and women who are not trans.

Why is a woman called a non- trans woman rather than a woman?
I can only address these questions in a way that means we disagree on the definition of "woman." This is offensive to some people, just as saying transwomen are men are offensive to others. So I will be unavoidably give offense in order to answer this.
There are some people whose gender identity doesn't match the sex they were assigned at birth. These are transgender people. To name the majority, a term has been coined (now in the dictionary, hooray) cisgender, for people who don't suffer this mismatch. So under the umbrella "woman" there are transwomen and non-transwomen.
Why is it ok for someone to bring their penis into a woman-only space?
Facetiously, if the penis is attached to a women, it's pretty unavoidable. In truth it depends. Some spaces can be sex segragated if it's necessary and proportionate, some gender segregated. That's the law as it currently stands.
Why do lesbians have to swear they'll have sex with trans women or risk being called transphobic?
I fundamentally disagree with anyone whose says that, so I can't answer the question.
Why is it transphobic to disagree with even one thing a trans person wants?
It isn't.
Are people allowed to be gay /lesbian anymore?
Yes, they are. And screw anyone (metaphorically) if they tell you have to select people with a certain set of genitals.
Helmetbymidnight Op reminds me of a guy who used to go to have sex with lady-boys in Thailand but didn’t like gays
That's some homophobic bullshit right there.
