HebrideanUltraTerfHecate (npub1e3x…kndc) I have no idea how many would. But if I were a trans woman for example, then I would let females have their own spaces. I would not defend the people that behave badly to women. I would be horrified that males in prisons can identify as women, get sent to the women's prison and rape the women there. I'd be horrified that males are beating women up in sports. That girls are raped in the girls toilets at school. Because presumably I would understand the plight of so many women as I saw myself as a woman and that would take priority.
Just as I don't enter trans spaces right now, and I can understand what it feels like to think I'd be better off as the opposite sex, to relate to them and being disconnected from my body. I respect that they have their own trauma and pain that they need to address, needs that they need to address with each other. That there are people out there that target them and that they have their own vulnerabilities. But this doesn't mean that this should take priority over another group like women and their health and safety. We live in a society, this is bigger than any individual and our pain.
