Help me present evidence to my son

My DS is 18 and heavy into the TWAW belief. He thinks JK Rowling is a despicable human being for her position and thinks that women should have no problem with all of this, and it's all just "scare-mongering" to say otherwise. Whenever I try to talk to him about this I end up getting too emotional to be rational. I really want to present him with evidence that this movement is not good for women - please help direct me to some good resources. Thank you.

You know of two attacks in the last week, which left 'your friends assaulted & bloodied' & you didn't support them to report it? At a time when, I'm sure you'll claim if you haven't already, that it's important to understand why TW need access to women's spaces. You don't sound much of a friend.

And I'm still unclear why some impotent males are safe in the toilets if all impotent males aren't

Silly inaccuracies in your misunderstanding and misinformation are idiotic testaments to your ignorance

It was last month And how do you know I didn’t support them to report? You don’t. I did. One did. One didn’t.

So it's life-endangering for transwomen to go into a bathroom where there are men, but it's absolutely fine to let any man into the ladies' who's willing to claim he's a woman? Seriotsly, could you make it any clearer that you prioritise male-born people (i.e. men) over women?

How did you get so twisted?

What do you say to the many women who do not want biological men in their single sex spaces?

Bizarre argument
men attack men for being different
so do women
one of my trans women friends was beaten in the street by three young women just for being trans and they videoed the assault laughing

Presumably we just need to believe harder that TWAW.

So do you think a rape survivor should have to call her rapist "she" in court if he says he is a woman?

No

Reappraise what you think of as the aspects of humanity which make other people a threat like angry women for example

So not all misgendering is vile then?

That was awful behaviour and those women should be arrested and taken to court. Nobody should be assaulted for how they present themselves.

But:

Your friend is still a man so shouldn't be in women's single sex spaces.

Those women knew he was a man. They didn't attack him thinking he was a woman; they attacked him because he's a trans woman. So the awful attack undermines the whole TWAW argument.

Well a male rapist is not going to be a person particularly worthy of being called a woman.

I assume you mean after conviction because the police are reporting much higher levels of malicious rape claims.

Well, by definition, if the victim is giving evidence in court he has not been convicted of anything yet.

Are you suggesting that we must believe a man is a woman if he says he is one until he rapes someone, but then it's OK to say he is a man?

What do you mean "worthy"? I thought self id meant just that? Unless you are applying additional gatekeeping standards to determine who is "really" trans? (as opposed, say, to a random bloke saying he is a women)

Really? Well she did report it to the police and they are saying they will investigate.
just because it doesn’t fit your beliefs means it’s not true?
that hurts me and makes me sad for my friend
please don’t reply to me again

It would be helpful if @DianaAntoniaJasmine could give some guidelines so we can work out when a TW is AW and when a TW is NAW.

Excuse my scepticism but you haven't exactly proven yourself to be a reliable narrator on this thread.

Self identification is ok but not to the point of legal reassignment and the Scots Nats government came unstuck on that although many countries have that as law
the uk government will be looking at gender recognition again and yes there will be safeguards and medical experts involved which I think is right as do most genuine tw

Oh really, everything she says on her pet subject has a dog whistle or actual misgendering insult. She sponsored legal action to remove any legal value of transitioning, the ultimate goal of many trans women in the world is to get a grc. The added hatred makes her look a nutter to right minded people.

The FWS action in the Supreme Court could make a legal female with a grc and an anatomical female body and an endocrinological female system back into a male in law.

that is born of hatred

that is what her millions are trying to influence

that is the epitome of anti transgender

What, in your view, constitutes "an anatomical female body"? Is this just the external, secondary sex organs, or are you including the internal organs, such as uterus, cervix, fallopian tubes, ovaries, and the complete clitoris? Are the external organs fully functioning, or are they simulations? What is "an endocrinological female system"? Is this one which requires the application or injection of female hormones to prevent it reverting to a male endocrinological system?

So when you say "They've given up reporting it" this is untrue. Some may have.

Still can't see the answer on the impotent men

It was in the street but she had used the ladies all night and is very far down the gender reassignment route
