Can you give examples of the issues you mention? Or are you merely scare mongering?

I'm not scaremongering.

This is just the tip of the iceberg, and is why there's been so much blowback in recent years against the trans activism that enabled all this.

Trying to be serious and then post those as your sources is pretty funny.

The sources are dodgy. But so is the premise.

Gaolers are sadists, is well established. The large amount of rape in prisons is due to guards sadism, (not all guards, not all gaols). Trans prisoners are no harder to deal with than any other class, but bigotry...

Ditto for refuges. There are a lot of troubles around refuges, trouble from trans women is just another set of troubles.

Professional sports, and record keeping in sports does seem to have a reasonable objection, if you accept the premise of competitive sport. (I could hardly care less about competitive sport, but I recognise it is a problem for them). A small part of our society, and a special case. So what.

But bigotry, and a totally bizarre interference in other people's personal lives.

I really do not get it.

What fabulous work trans men and women are doing breaking down the arcane tyranny of gender that is a major fault line through our whole society.
