This is still the one lingering elephant in the room that nobody likes to talk about.
As men agonise about how hard it is for other men, and tell women that it's not trans identified men that are a danger but bad other men (which involves a trip to mental fairyland away from nasty facts and reality), it's still too shocking and unkind to state the bald, hard fact that many of these men are getting off on it.
Being in women's spaces with distressed undressed women is a turn on. The evidence is far and wide, there are bloody social media boards about it ffs, a lot of them. The photos shared of men wanking with the doors open in women's toilets, the men rushing in to search the sanitary bin after a woman leaves a cubicle in the hope of her wet warm tampon to stuff up his bum.... the ugliest, most vile stuff. Women are not supposed to mention this! They're just supposed to quietly submit to it.
And that is the root of some of the men's rage about all this, let's be honest. It's partly how dare women say no to men. It's partly how dare women refuse access to their biology which is a man's entitlement because he has needs. And it's partly as Victoria Smith says, cockblocking.
One of the questions front and centre in all this has been 'to what extent should women have to be sexual props and resources available to any man who wants to use them in women's spaces'. Which would be a sex based duty, the birthright of women (except they must never say that sex exists because that jars the man's experience), owed to men. The thrills of control, coercion, being able to force her to pretend to your face something you know damned well she doesn't believe or consent to, that power that if she resists.... well. There's a reason this lobby launch into threats of sexual violence at the drop of a hat.
I can already hear the whine about 'but not all...'
It does not matter if not all. It does not matter about the lovely Nigels who just want to quietly live their lives. They cannot come into women's spaces without men who want to do all the above and more to women.
So do you believe that women should not have to deal with this as part of the burden of being born in a female body? Or do you believe that women have a duty to suffer for the betterment of others and suck up the nasty stuff so other men may be made happy?
