I would tell them that. I had a rough childhood too, and mental health issues as an adult, but that doesn't mean I should be allowed to just wander into women's changing rooms whenever I feel like it, and then guilt trip or threaten any women who object to my presence.

At least it was easy to see you had no interest to present factual arguments and just regurgitated what you read online. For somebody asking empathy about your childhood, you seem to give very little to others.

My empathy is with women who are being forced to give up their female-only spaces, where they are the most vulnerable, to include men who demand to be there too. It's unacceptable regardless of if these men had difficult childhoods or not. I wouldn't do it, most other men wouldn't either, so neither should they.

According to the article, I rightly choose not to believe they exist because they are inconvenient and I am too busy working to accept such an inconvenience.

The same logic refuted abolitionism.
