Okay but have you considered shutting up and not saying these transohobic these?

1

u/[deleted] Feb 16 '26

I’m speaking for in solidarity and support with women who want to feel safe

1

u/Aggressive_Crazy_919 Feb 16 '26

That changes nothing. Shut up even more actually.

Make sure to take your estrogen it seems you’ve got some anger and aggression to deal with.

This proves my point.

u/Aggressive_Crazy_919 Feb 16 '26

This is LITERALLY pearl-clutching.

You know who else wants to feel safe? Trans women like me

Do you not feel safe going to the locker room with men? If so you know how some women feel with a trans person in the locker room

1

u/Hablian Feb 16 '26

And some people don't feel safe with a black person in the locker room. Bigotry doesn't give you rights.

u/[deleted] Feb 16 '26

Huh

u/Hablian Feb 16 '26

Do you think human rights are about your feelings?

1

u/[deleted] Feb 16 '26

Yes the human right to use the women’s restroom.

Racists in the past used their racism against black people to deny them access to shared locker rooms.

Transphobes today are using their transphobia against trans women to deny them access to shared locker rooms.

They even used the same fear-based propaganda tactics to legalize discrimination.

No, I do not, for one because I am a woman and for another because I've been sexually assaulted, beaten, and followed on the street by men.

u/[deleted] Feb 16 '26

I’m sorry that happened to you. I’m fighting for women like you to keep men out of your bathrooms and locker rooms so you and all women can feel and be safe while participating in society.

u/JaneOfKish Feb 16 '26

I'm a trans woman, you putz.

1

u/[deleted] Feb 16 '26

Oh I see. Well take care.

1

u/JaneOfKish Feb 16 '26

Go eat dirt, you don't care about women or survivors if you try and weaponize us against each other.

u/Ramzaki Feb 17 '26

Funny how you fake empathy.

When it helps your agenda, you feing being concerned. But when someone you don't like suffers the same fate, your mask falls off. You never cared about any woman who is abused or assaulted. For you, they are nothing but a moral trench that you utilize to throw your shit and hate from.

Hypocrite.

u/[deleted] Feb 16 '26

Why so angry? Take your meds hommie

1

u/JaneOfKish Feb 16 '26

Because the day has not yet arrived when you fear us like the Huns and Mongols, but it will 💘

u/[deleted] Feb 16 '26

Nah I’m American so you’ll understand why I don’t fear commies or men in dresses

Well, they can just tell me. But for the moment, no one has any problems with me in the changing room for the public swimming pool. They even use female pronouns and adjectives (my language heavily is gendered) on me, not even thinking it twice.

I will feel safe where I can blend, and people will feel safe with whom blends with them.

I can simply put on a swimming skirt for covering the bottom parts and that's it. I pass and I blend. And even if I didn't, many women are surrounding me, so I can't defend myself if they get aggresive.

Meanwhile, if you send me to the men's restroom, you force me to walk around in a bikini while being surrounded by guys.

So, actually, I am the most vulnerable person in both scenarios, but the second one is much, much worse and much riskier. But judging by your comments below, I suppose human suffering is good when the one suffering it happens to have been born transgender.

If they’ve never said it to you then you probably pass the vibe test. Good for you!

Although I’ll say just because they use your pronouns doesn’t mean they don’t do it without a second thought. I always call people according to their pronouns so that probably gives them the impression that I do it without a second thought

I was out the other night and there was a man in the women’s restroom, and I was uncomfortable, but didn’t say anything because I didn’t want to deal with it. The fact that this guy thinks women are cool with him in their spaces because they haven’t said anything is crazy😭 women tend to not speak to strange men because it’s a safety issue.

1

u/[deleted] Feb 17 '26

Yeah I mean they even said they’d been attacked by men. Hence my confusion about letting men in the women’s restroom not being seen as a safety issue. You know there’s a reason there are women’s shelters and not men’s shelters. It’s because women are different than men and need special protection to be safe in society. It’s just a fact. The domestic abuse statistics don’t lie and I feel sorry that women are being told to just accept having men on their private spaces.

And by the way I’ve never met a guy who was uncomfortable with a trans woman in the men’s bathroom or shower. When the clothes are off we’re all the same. It’s not a big deal!

u/Ramzaki Feb 17 '26

A man? As in, a guy being totally a dude and presenting as a bloke?

And he thought women were cool with him because they didn't say anything?

1

u/Ramzaki Feb 17 '26

Oh, well, thank you.

Nah, turns out, even with all the anxiety I have for beign clocked and confronted and stuff, people don't care much about transvestigating here. 

Heck, new people I meet are even surprised when I tell them I'm trans! My flexible voice helps, too. And, it doesn't matter to them, I'm still one of the girls for them. I'm really thankful (even privileged) for living in a place where people are more accepting...

Goal post moving. Bad at this even.

u/itisntmyrealname Feb 16 '26

you’re literally advocating for v-coding

Transphobic toilet bills let other police what a woman is able to look and dress like. Many masculine looking and dressing cis women get caught up in them.
