This year, the number of murderers who are transgender is higher in the UK than the number of murder victims.

And then there's attempted murders and current murderers declaring themselves trans while behind bars:

Does the fact that MTFs are victimizers in these obscenely violent criminal acts more frequently than they are victims change how lawmakers will see their claims of eternal victimhood? I doubt it. How many male murderers will have to be given elective surgery at taxpayer expense and housed with women (far less likely to be in prison for violent crime) before someone takes a long, hard look at the reality of the situation?

I know I always feel happy and grateful when someone tells me that it's a privilege to serve them!

ALittleBitofVitriol · 13/10/2018 01:45

How female these 'women' are? Zero.

What gives me the right to say that? I dunno, 2 eyes, a brain and a mouth? The unchanging fact of human reproduction?

Feelings are reality's bitch, for all of us.

Feminist4 · 13/10/2018 01:46

Nobody used the word ‘serve'. It is a privilege to be in her company because she is kind, wise, thoughtful and witty and she is an articulate feminist. She is not a man.. But what an uphill fight to get her accepted to the community she should be welcomed into rather than rejected and scorned.

Hyppolyta · 13/10/2018 01:46

Being female isnt a judgement call.

It isnt a question of how nice you are. If your child was born with the biology to produce sperm, they are male. That cant be changed, sadly

Of course people should show compassion, but that stops the second he tries to force his way into a female space.

2500 children a year attend identity clinics. If the suicide stats had anything to do with completed suicide you'd be seeing about three a day.

According to the serious case review stats, it's still only one (possibly two now).

Please read about this independently.

Feminist4 · 13/10/2018 01:48

Reproduction. So what? Who cares? She'd love to have female reproductive organs. When that becomes possible will you accept her?

AngryAttackKittens · 13/10/2018 01:48

Almost everyone's mum loves them. That doesn't mean that other people are obligated to.

But now, back to boats! What does everyone else fancy being? I'm thinking maybe I should change my answer back to "submarines" on account of less chance of seasickness.

Datun · 13/10/2018 01:50

There's nothing stopping your child supporting women and feminism. Volunteering, donating, campaigning. They need no-ones permission.

Hyppolyta · 13/10/2018 01:51

Feminist from what you have said your child is the sort of male who hears women say no, and decides to do it anyway.

Because he wants to, and what he wants is more important.

No. I will never accept males like that in female spaces.

Feminist4 · 13/10/2018 01:52

I have read about it. It is a red herring. Why are you trying to pretend it doesn't happen. Something like 50% of transgender peple attempt suicide. It's too late for me to start googling for the evidence - but it's out there.

Datun · 13/10/2018 01:58

It was taken from a cohort of 27. It was self selecting and not verified. And the authors themselves said it probably included incidences of self harm.

The Samaritans urge people to not blame a single issue for suicide, as it very rarely is. The also counsel against highlighting it as it has a self fulfilling element. That doesn't stop lobby groups like Mermaids using it relentlessly.

Feminist4 · 13/10/2018 01:58

You are really offensive. Calling my daughter a man is wrong. You are inflexible In your views. You either do not see or don't care about the damage you cause. Perhaps before you condemn you should spend some time with some transgender women and see things a bit more from their perspective. It is quite extraordinary. Incidentally, she is my step-daughter. I don't see her through rose tinted glasses.

Datun · 13/10/2018 01:59

Trans children can be vulnerable of course. But so are disabled children, children with SEN and LGB children.

Feminist4 · 13/10/2018 02:00

Wrong. Suicide in transgender community is caused by a single issue and the knock on consequences. Other reasons for suicide may not be.

AngryAttackKittens · 13/10/2018 02:01

All children are vulnerable, on account of being children.

My niece is not less deserving of care and protection than a child who identifies as trans.

Supporting your child in denying reality is always going to be a problem. You will always encounter people who won't accept your belief system.

Feminist4 · 13/10/2018 02:02

But you aren't stigmstising those groups.

Hyppolyta · 13/10/2018 02:02

I did not call them a man, I called them a male.

Thats is the truth. You can not force people to lie because you find the truth offensive.

Not can males force their way into female spaces by claiming they will commit suicide or be harmed if they cant enter.

Its just more lies, and we know its lies.

Feminist4 · 13/10/2018 02:03

Groan. OK. I'm wasting my time. It's like being among slave traders who think your child is the heathen.

Datun · 13/10/2018 02:06

Wrong. Suicide in transgender community is caused by a single issue and the knock on consequences. Other reasons for suicide may not be.

No. Depending on which countries stats you read, between 40-60% have comirbid MH issues.

Datun · 13/10/2018 02:07

It's not stigmatising someone by recognising their sex. It just isn't.

ShamelesslyPlacemarking · 13/10/2018 02:08

she is kind, wise, thoughtful and witty and she is an articulate feminist

I can embrace all those qualities in a male (or at least 'feminist ally'). I don't think those qualities make someone female, nor entitled to share female-only spaces or take female-only places.

Hyppolyta · 13/10/2018 02:11

Feminist you are wasting your time.

This is your personal belief system that has no basis in reality. It leads you to believe all sex based provisions should be removed.

Of course those of us who dont share your belief system and prioritise safegaurding over feelings will never agree.

Feminist4 · 13/10/2018 02:12

Food for thought here? What do you suggest? Aversion therapy? Rugby camp? Live life cut off from and rejected by those they wish to join? Or fight to be accepted - as many minority groups have had to do in the past. One day they will be accepted into women only spaces by most women and boards like this will be in the history books. And you know what? Women won't mind or be more at risk as they will realise trsnsgender women are just women who had a tough start in life.

FloralBunting · 13/10/2018 02:14

What is 'aversion therapy'?
