Do you talk about being GC in real life?

[Waiting4baby2]

I feel like Im going mad. I am a left leaning person, only ever read bbc and the guardian news. Generally a ‘live and let live’ sort of person who cares about equality.
I was completely in the dark about policy changes which have taken/ are taking place to put gender ID above sex/ the silencing of women and frankly the child abuse that has been taking place through affirmative care.
Now I’ve started properly looking into it I’m completely in shock at how this has been allowed to happen to women’s rights. Im also gobsmacked at the way the guardian and bbc have been so biased in the matter and failing to air any gender critical views.
I feel like now I’m aware of what’s going on I want my friends and family, particularly female members to know. However, it’s such a layered story to get across and when I have gently mentioned anything I basically get ‘well it’s none of my business, it doesn’t affect me how people want to live’ or ‘I don’t know much about it’ but are clearly disapproving. Just a question is it worth bringing some ideas to light for them or will they get there themselves? I’m feeling quite powerless but know how important this is so in a way feel duty bound to air the alternative view. What can I do?!

I felt so frustrated the other day, as I saw a woke colleague had 'liked' a post by some misogynist bearded he/him on LinkedIn saying that we all have mixed sex toilets at home so why do the silly hysterical bigoted women mind about mixed sex public toilets.

That argument about people having mixed sex toilets at home is such bullshit, and completely ignores the fact that we do many things in our own homes that we would never do in public places. The point is, we presumably vet who is coming in our front door, and it's usually friends and family, so it's a completely different scenario, which is totally ignored by those screaming 'bigot'.

I feel like asking the women who endorse that crap (I'm looking at you Sarah Silverman) if a strange man knocked on your door at 11.30pm at night and asked to use your toilet, would you let him in? Probably not! Because that is the only vague comparison I can think of.

@PastaForLife thanks for this, I have looked them up. I have discussed these issues somewhat with friends and discovered that a few share my views and a few a still very much on a 'be kind', 'inclusive' thought process, even strong, educated women who I would certainly have thought of as feminists.

One said J K Rowling is the canary in the coal mine on this issue.
No, lesbians are. Rowling just gave them a megaphone.

I was thinking about this again today, as my young adult daughter is travelling abroad solo this year. She has joined a ‘women only’ travel group online, booked female AirBnB hosts and aims to sit near women on public transport (and has moved seats, and even BnB, if she’s been wary of other travellers).

All very sensible, but I hope her instincts won’t be overridden by politeness if the ‘women only’ group becomes mixed sex.

The context here is that she is very TWAW with university friends; rather more GC at home as she is aware of the physical harm that transition has done to her cousin, and thinks that there might have been other ways forward.
