That you have behaved in a very similar way to a great number of other biologically male people, throughout history: that is, treating us as if we are a commodity that exists to validate you,
I have done no such thing. Please do not look to make me take responsibility simply by virtue of my natal sex.
You took something from me without asking in the first place: it’s not up to me to find an adequate replacement for you now I’m asking you to give it back.
You are free to seek changes in law but right now you are asking me to voluntarily give up my legal rights. You want me to find a replacement when a law already exists because you don't agree with it
You have done exactly that thing and I already explained how.
I’m not asking you to take responsibility just because you’re biologically male, but because your actual behaviour is typical of biologically male people. You feel entitled to use women’s facilities, despite the disadvantage it causes us. You feel entitled to demand that we square this circle for you, despite the huge additional pressure that places on us. You use us as a commodity to benefit yourself.
I don’t see any empathy or respect for women coming from you. Possibly you resent us for being what you wish you were. But that’s not our fault. I think your hijacking of this thread to make it all about you is just another example of male entitlement.
You are part of the oppressor class, transsexual or not. It’s astonishing how you can be so casual and unconcerned about how you are harming women and girls, all while expecting us to feel compassion for you, to cater for you at our own expense.
That couldn’t be more stereotypical (and misogynistic) in terms of male/female dynamics. You are absolutely mired in those gender roles you claim you wish didn’t exist, and you’re not playing the stereotypically female part.
Yes, I asked you to consider giving up your legal rights on the basis you have no moral entitlement to them. It was theft, aided and abetted by the state, but still theft. I’m appealing to your common decency as a human being, because it was this atrocious piece of legislation that led directly to the nightmare we’re in now, where the most blatantly obviously male (and predatory) of men can simply claim to be trans if he wishes, and access all areas.
You might not have wished for this monster but it was the work of the “genuine transsexuals” that paved the way for its creation.
But anyway, you’ve made it clear you have no intention of doing what I suggest is the decent thing, because the way things are now suits you well enough and you obviously couldn’t care less about the consequences for actual biologically female people. Good to know where we stand with you.
Definitely a case of identifying as rather than identifying with.
And a shining example of why we need to repeal the GRA.
