It is certainly not likely to be a woman concerned about sex based rights and protections who goes around spitting on people......so I'm not sure why this thread is here? There are, and always have been, really unevolved people who pick on those that are different or stand out for some reason in public spaces.
Picking on people for their red hair, for being overweight, for being of another race, for being overtly camp or butch, for being an attractive young woman, for being an elderly woman, for being disabled...and so on.
Meanwhile, women who have been meeting, for many years, to discuss issues around women's sex based protections have been spat at, abused, been threatened by trans activists
