Feminism doesn't kill trans people.

Neither are women reponsible for the mental health of male people who erroneously believe themselves to be female.

Women are a distinct biological class of people entitled to rights and privacy. Take your emotional blackmail and shove it.
Every single point made in this video can be refuted. Many can be proven untrue.

The issue is, and has always been, risk of male violence and perception of risk. Women know that male people perpetrate almost all sexual violence. We have been socialised all our lives to fear and
take responsibility for avoiding it. Women recognise the vast majority of trans women as biologically male. Therefore we feel the same risk we would if any male were in our sex segregated spaces.

We can't cognitively trick ourselves into perceiving obviously biologically male
people as female.

Gender self ID means there is no way of policing *any* male who wishes to enter our space. All they have to say is that they identify as female. So this isn't just about people who identify as trans either.

Stop trying to make women feel guilty for their
perfectly reasonable concerns. Just stop it. I know you think it makes you morally superior, but it doesn't. All I see is a woman in total denial about the reality of the dangers women face in a male dominated society. It's terrifying.
Trans women are not the only group of biologically male people at risk of male violence. Gay men are at increased risk, as are men and boys perceived as weak or insufficiently masculine. Should we welcome them all into women's spaces? Male on male violence is not a women's issue.
Feminism is for the liberation of women from male dominance. Biological males insisting they are coming into women's spaces and sharing our hard won resources whether we like it or not, are engaging in typical masculine behaviour.

Same shit, different package.
I'm not having it. And I'm not going to be made to feel guilty about standing up for myself.

We can support trans people to be proudly trans, free from discrimination, with resources of their own.
