RMW says transwomen have the right to use women’s spaces because otherwise they will be outed? (We all know annyway, there’s no ‘outing’ going on) And the solution is for a third space for women who need to use it due to trauma or religious reasons…
He's hilarious. Really entertaining. To whom is it necessary for women with a history of sexual trauma to divulge it so as to access a women's-only facility? Who requires this justification? How does he intend to police it? Should it come as any great shocker that a woman with that history might not want to divulge it to an aggressive bunch of male supremacist activisits? This lobby has shown that they actively get off on women's subjugation. Displaying their hard-ons whilst shouting at women in public, the infamous 'Isla' Bryson image (praise be to that photographer), making an early beeline for Vancouver Rape Crisis to harass female victims of sexual assault? What do they expect us to do: stay silent about our abuse or thank men for the privilege of having inflicted it in the first place?
As for trauma being a get-out clause as to why a woman might not choose to use a mixed-sex toilet, this is a 180-degree about-face from the received TRA position that women are 'weaponising your trauma'. What are we do to?, stay silent so as not to inflict our experience of male abuse on the males who actually inflicted it (confused yet?), or to divulge it as justification for a single-sex facility, as well as for the titillation of the males who we know tend to 'enjoy' stories of that type?
Is this confused, convuluted set of self-contradictory arguments really the work of a practising barrister? And if so what's the rationale: keep making up the law to suit yourself and shove in a precedent through the back door - an established MO of this lobby - so that in the end it becomes ingrained and others end up forced to follow it? Of course the TRAs have established form for that sort of thing. But surely there should be sanctions against lawyers like this, who openly ignore the law and make alternative rules up to suit themselves. If this isn't bringing the profession into disrepute and undermining it from within, I'm not sure what is. There are 'allegedly' Bar Standards in place to prevent precisely this. And yet ... crickets.
Let them speak, indeed. Show up this abusive, sadistic fantasy-world for precisely what it it and - if on this point alone - there's no one better qualified to do that than this bloke.
