How about asking if they would feel threatened by a trans woman then instead of the loaded question?

 

 

 

I've just humoured you and asked both my wife and also my sister who happens to be here just now. They think you're bonkers if you think women's rights are being eroded because a trans woman wants to sit down for a piss.

You think I'm bonkers if I think womens rights are being eroded because of trans rights?!!! It's not me that thinks it It's woman!!!!

How does that work precisely? Rooms with cubicles only? 
I don’t buy into the narrative that trans people will randomly attack women in dressing rooms but I also believe some women won’t feel comfortable with people in “their spaces”. Conversely I also know a trans man who doesn’t feel confident in male toilets. 
You can’t deny there are a certain number of extremists out there. There was a story in the press recently about a young woman at a rape support centre in Brighton that had to stop attending as a male presenting trans woman started attending. I know someone who is one of the people mentioned previously that considers the self a woman on certain days but always dresses as a man. Should they be able to use the woman’s on the days they feel like a woman? 

 

Yes rooms with cubicles only if that's what it takes. 

 

The answer can't be to force trans women to use male toilets, that's crazy.

 

Dresses like a man?  Watch out, James doesn't like that sort of talk.

But you're happy for men being in womens spaces and making them feel threatened and uncomfortable as long as the men say they're women!!!! Your all over the place on this.

 

Where the feck did I say that? Stop making shit up.

 

In fact I actually said this  "Oh and by the way, nobody of any sex or gender has the right to make anyone else feel threatened, uncomfortable or unsafe, nobody."

And round we go again, women's sex based rights are not being eroded.

 Ok. Thanks for clarifying. 

 

Trans women on all-women shortlists? 

 

Trans women playing women's rugby? 

 

Trans women in Women's combat sports?

 

Trans women in women's refuges?

If it's not even "topic of conversation" how about making it one with them, you might learn something. 

Why would I ask them about gender neutral spaces? We're talking about female only spaces and men have absolutely no right to be in them.

 

How about asking them about gender neutral spaces? Maybe you might learn something. Mind you that normally requires an open mind

You did say that but the "oh and by the way" really added nothing to your answer.

What gender neutral places? I've said that no man should be in a female space, I've also said that I'm happy for trans people, men and women using neutral spaces.

My mind is open to sensible argument.

I'm perfectly happy for trans people using sex neutral changing rooms toilets, I'm perfectly happy for men and women using sex neutral changing rooms or toilets, but I don't want any man going into a female space where women are completely in their right to be and feel safe. If there's not enough of these "natural" place well build some, it's a trans persons right to feel safe as much as anyone, but if you've been born male you're male and shouldn't be in female spaces.

My view too.

Trans women playing women's rugby? 

See above 

 

Trans women in Women's combat sports?

See above.

 

Trans women in women's refuges? 

Is that really an issue apart from the odd isolated instance? You would ban all trans women who need refuge from getting it because of the odd case? Would you also ban all straight men from male toilets because of attacks on gay men?

So we're in agreement that we should strive to get rid of gender specific places then, that's good.

🤣 no we shouldn't, we should be making sure people have sex specific spaces so they can feel safe, womens refuges, or do you think men should be allowed in these?

Where should a trans woman that needs refuge go?

The lengths women have went to to get these rights and men telling them they now have to wind their necks because men should now be in all your sports and toilets and changing rooms and refuges if beyond laughable it's actually scary how it's been allowed to get this far.

A Trans woman is still a man though

In the bad old days they castrated young boys to make them castratos 

They were still boys though 

Treat them sympathetically? yes

Are they women? No

Do you think a man with the full male tackle who identifies as a woman should be allowed in a female changing room?

Would your wife/sister/daughter be happy with that?

Trans women, who are men, should use male toilets until there's neutral places for them to go, I've said  there should be more places for trans people to go.

They have the right not to feel threatened, but they are men and should not have the right to be in womens spaces making women feel threatened, women should not suffer the loss of their rights because a man wants to live like a women.

A trans woman, who are men, should go to a male refuge until a neutral space can be found, men and should not have the right to be in womens spaces making women feel threatened, women should not suffer the loss of their rights because a man wants to live like a women

How many? about a dozen at a BBQ recently and others at different times, it comes up often due to my social group having teenagers at school and having friends who are trans or bi or gay.

It’s about womens   perception of safety and threat . That’s the point of why there are safe places for women only . They might not get abused or assaulted but there is always the chance they might be and that needs respected , ( their view about it )

That's it exactly, it's women who are being ignored in this, it's their right to safe places that are being taking away, it's women who should be front and centre in all of this and men are telling to shut up because I feel like a women today and I want to be in you places, it's scandalous.

I don't take his arguments lightly, I honestly don't, there's a very serious debate to be had, I think, although I my have got the wrong poster, he has a child who is trans (please forgive me if I've got this wrong) so it's obviously a very big deal to him, but I don't think his arguments are the right way to get things moving in the right way for trans people.

No James. It's about men deciding and telling them. 

 

And regarding sport, they should just be grateful that no-one is stopping them from playing.

Because all trans women are really hairy arsed, big bollocked males out to threaten females really eh?

 

Should the person in this photo be forced to use a male toilet and go to a male refuge if they were in need of refuge?

 

For the avoidance of doubt the person is this photo is a friend of mine who was born a man but now identifies as female and is more feminine than most women I've ever met.

If the person in the photograph is male then yes, they should use a male toilet, looking good in a dress and heels doesn't mean you should be allowed to be in female spaces no matter how you are dressed or what you identify as, they have no right to be in a female space.

You're right, I've four friends who are gay none are trans,  but if you'd just take a breath you could see it was our kids at school who I said had trans friends.

*edit*

4 friends and 1 cousin 1 second cousin and a nephew who are gay, 5 men and 1 women.

Thats because you think my argument is that women have fought long and hard for the right to have safe places and men are saying no you can't have them, we're coming in to make you feel threatened. A bairn with a biscuit erse can see that that's not what I am advocating. A solution needs found that gives everyone that right, whatever it takes.

I am talking about the right to feel safe, the right for women to feel safe in womens spaces and not have men invade these spaces despite how they dress or how they identify, something you fail to grasp, so there you go.

As I thought, thanks for correcting the fact that any of your friends are trans. I don't need to take a breath mate, you actually said that you had friends who were trans in the post I quoted, I didn't make it up. That's not my style. Gay people on the whole (as demonstrated frequently on here) do not think trans is even a thing never mind something that has rights. 

Yes I look after a kid who says they are trans but I wouldn't want to argue the case for or against kids when it comes to sexuality or gender as they definitely can be going through a phase, not always though so an open mind is probably best.
