JKR asking similar questions to what I have been asking for years on here.

As another man who once worked with me declares himself saddened by my beliefs on gender and sex, I thought it might be useful to compile a list for handy reference. Which of the following do you imagine makes actors and directors who aren’t involved with the HBO reboot of Harry Potter so miserable?

Is it my belief that women and girls should have their own public changing rooms and bathrooms?

That women should retain female-only rape crisis centres?

That men don’t belong in women’s sport?

That female prisoners shouldn’t be incarcerated with violent men and male sex offenders?

That women should remain a protected class in law, because they have sex-specific needs and issues?

That language should reflect reality rather than ideological jargon, especially in a medical context?

That women shouldn’t be harassed, persecuted or fired for refusing to pretend humans can change sex?

That women should not be threatened with violence and rape when they assert their rights?

That freedom of speech and belief are essential to a pluralistic democratic society?

That troubled minors, especially those who are gay, autistic and trauma-experienced, should be given mental health support instead of irreversible surgeries and drug treatments on non-existent evidence of benefit?

That gay people shouldn’t be pressured to include the opposite sex in their dating pools, nor should they be smeared as ‘genital fetishists’ when they don’t?

That cross-dressing heterosexual male fetishists aren’t actually oppressed, but having the time of their lives piggybacking off gender identity ideology?

That said ideology, and the privileged, blinkered fools pushing it because they suffer zero consequences themselves, have done more damage to the political left’s credibility than Trump and Farage could have achieved in a century?

Let me have your thoughts.

This sums up the views of the majority of posters on this board, however, we often have other posters tell us they don’t agree with us, but never what views they don’t actually agree with.

So, those of you that don’t agree with the majority view on here, what is it about the above that you don’t agree with?

I couldn't restrain myself and have already read the first couple of chapters on Kindle through my internet browser.

I am sure you have pointed out the hypocrisy of posting this while then not posting evidence about male attacks in the male toilets for being transgender. But I cannot be arsed reading all the way back to check.

The hypocrisy of this posting pattern is a strange one.

I’m only on chapter 2 and already gripped. Luckily I can multitask as I will be listening to it all day!

0.01% is suddenly significant statistical data?

The UK 2021 census

It also struck me that a difference between the UK and Australia is that I don't recall many toilets or changing rooms being signed 'women'. Mostly 'female'. I have checked the last few trips back just to see if I remembered correctly.

Do you have that perception too? That we mostly called the toilets and showers 'female'. Or have the universal symbol.

It struck me as significant when I started reading here that these men would come into the female toilets because they were signed for 'women'.

This stuff makes me so angry. Women are a bunch of subjective characteristics or whatever 🤯. Funny how when thousands of years of men want to keep women in their place and own them like property, or current men around the world want to keep women as second class citizens and sell them in to the sex trade, no one’s able to identify out of it. No one’s discussing gender identity. It’s all down to basic biology.
But oh no! Here’s some men here and now telling women it doesn’t suit them anymore, and they want all the privileges going and women are all bigoted for knowing the past and remembering the suffering of women.

Have a kitten (or three)

Thank you. Speaking of hygiene it’s scientifically proven that women’s toilets are much more hygienic in hospitals than men’s or unisex. Women wash their hands more and don’t dirty the cubicle so much.

Fun fact: in some old drawings of London public toilets I was looking at, they must have known men didn’t bother washing their hands but ladies did. Sinks for men were tucked out the way. The women had more sinks per toilet (because they didn’t have as many toilets) but theirs were much better placed by the way out. And obviously the really old drawings didn’t even have women’s toilets.

I read this from Germaine Greer recently, in the chapter ‘Pantomime Dames’ from The Whole Woman (1999), “When he forces his way into the few private spaces women may enjoy and shouts down their objections, and bombards the women who will not accept him with threats and hate mail, he does as rapists have always done.”

I think of it every time one of these MRAs comes here to shout at us about why men should have access to women’s toilets and why are we so fucking stupid that we say no, and I think about what a very wise Australian she is.

Said the poster who wants to use data to wedge men into womens single sex spaces

So what is your N

We can see its at a minimim 4+N

What your minimum N

That's because you start from "these are the facts, they are true and consistent, do they tell us it's necessary and reasonable to utilise formerly single sex female resources for the benefit of trans identifying male people? " and Howie starts from "I want to utilise formerly single sex female resources for the benefit of trans identifying male people so it's necesary and reasonable to say anything I think might support that regardless of veracity or internal consistency"

You fail to provide any data to support your claims.
(Again)

Yep. Weird how trans women weren't so keen to transition when it meant no vote, no political presence, no right to own property...

I would love to know who did the cleaning in the Molly houses.

If you have proof please supply it

Well AnSolas

This is a poster that repeatedly posts about "369 trans people vs 435 061 people who were not trans identified in a study drawing a conclusion of:

”Transgender people are over four times more likely than cisgender people to experience violent victimization, including rape, sexual assault, and aggravated or simple assault”

(Note the statement refers to 'including' and prioritises only the serious crimes and not mentioning any of the more common much lesser crimes).

0.0008 is not a population that you could draw many confident conclusions from. Yet, this poster constantly does.

While then dismissing anything they want on the same basis.

It is such a dishonest tactic.

The poster is now mostly incoherent with the inconsistencies they are posting.

And abusive with it.

That ^ needs repeating.

REPOSTING DO TO AN AUTOCORRECT AFTER I PRESS POST

Regarding the % of male prisoners in UK with transgender identities. The figures that are in Hansard for the year ending 31 March 2024 had the figure that 151 of the 243 male prisoners in the UK prisons had at least one sex offence on their record.

The ratio changed from 43.3% (88/203) having at least one sex offence to their name at 31 March 2023 to 151/243 to 62.1% as at 31 March 2024.

The increase of the overall number of male prisoners with transgender identities in the UK prisons between 2023 and 2024 was only 42 yet the increase in the sex offenders was 63.

In 2019, there were 3.3% of female people in UK prisons were sex offenders. I haven’t looked up the stats since. But I wouldn’t expect this will be different. Last time I looked at the raw stats for female sex offences, they had remained stable numbers for a decade or more despite population growth.

For male people with transgender identities to have the same rate of committing sex offences, there would be 8 (3.3% of 243) prisoners with trans identities in the UK prison population with sex offences.

8

Not 151.

And if someone tries to suggest that the majority of these male prisoners have declared that they are women to gain access to the female prisons, I doubt this is true.

Considering the sex crime numbers for that prison population jumped from 88 to 151 male prisoners with a sex offence that declared they were women in a year (31 March 2024 to 31 March 2024) AFTER the publishing of the guidance in early February 2023, I seriously doubt these new prisoners are making declarations for the benefit of getting into the female prison.

I've been wondering the same. But maybe we shouldn't be too judgemental. At peak Howse we're being blessed with more than 20 posts per hour. It must be quite a strain to produce meaningful content in just 3 minutes per post. And all typed one-handed as well.

I have NUMEROUS times.

And these bogus graphs have been debunked repeatedly.

Again, this is the hypocrisy of this poster.

They have posted an article from Vox (from 2016 by the way) that lists 3 incidents. I believe that the poster has posted it 5 times.

Yet, when discussion turns to 3 rapes by males with transgender identities this is the reply:

"Anecdotal experiences doesn't qualify as statistical data."

"Anecdotal experiences don't count as hard statistical peer reviewed data."

"Isolated instance don't qualify as significant statistical data."

Is this where we all chime in with the now-frequent refrain:

Can't have it both ways?

You are making shit up. Put up evidence or shut up.

I think it is time you did some work and actually pointed out the points in that article that you believe prove your point that the statistics from the MoJ are not to be considered accurate representation that this group of men do not have the same risk of committing sex crime as female people in the UK.

Stop relying on this MRA who doesn't disprove the relevancy of the MoJ statistics at all.

You claim you know so much, time to put your reasons for dismissing these statistics into your own words. Clearly and accurately.

The UK has clarified our legal definition of "woman". It does not include men, even if this makes some men sad.

No need to argue with Howse- the legal team representing FWS have already collated the evidence and the most senior judges in the land agreed with them.

Looking forward to collecting my copy of The Hallmarked Man on my way home later.
