people shouldn't be hurting people over politics but I think it's very unfair to expect trans people to be polite while having healthcare and right taken away from them which has been happening in America. Do you just expect trans people to politely ask for it back?
I'd still really like to hear what rights are being taken away from you @Bathhy ?
Now as for women's rights being taken away from us...
Women are losing our rights to women-only gym changing rooms, hospital wards and prison cells. We're losing women's sports. We're seeing 'women of the year' business and sporting awards being given to men (and hence women missing out). We see crimes committed by men being put in the female statistics and the gender pay gap misreported - all making it harder to keep up the political pressure to reduce women's disadvantage.
And despite all that - yes, we are still asking for those back incredibly politely.
No women have poured soup over someone talking about trans rights, nor would we consider or condone breaking an elderly transwomen's skull - as TRAs did to women in NZ recently.
No women have held up signs saying that TRAs should be decapitated - as Scottish TRAs did to women a few months ago ( and SNP MPs were happy to be photographed in front of).
No women have shouted abuse outside a meeting of transwomen talking about the difficulties associated with medical transition, as TRAs did outside Filia, whilst a survivor of female genital mutilation spoke about her history and how to protect young girls.
for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction
No. We're better than that.
Also, we know from a lifetime of experience that people get really angry with women when we ask for things not politely. Since we don't have male privilege.
But we're getting pretty fucked off.
