Gender again. Sorry!

so instead of accepting the issue for what it is, it's far more important to worry about all these trans men who are clearly now going to attack women in womens spaces? Couldn't they do that already? And where does the assumption come from that all trans men are just wearing women's clothes to blend in and perv on women?

on sports - no. Physiological differences mean I don't think they should mix. but that's a sex issue and not a gender issue. You can call yourself female gender but if you were born male and can't prove otherwise then no, you shouldn't be allowed in competitive womens sports. Same goes for in hospital, don't pretend you're a man if you've got women's insides that might go unchecked if you claim the wrong biological sex

Single sex spaces and sports just for women? Pish.

This is what most gender critical people believe. Wear what you want but sometimes your sex matters.

Women are safer in single sex spaces and those spaces become mixed sex spaces if you admit men, regardless of what those men call themselves. Yes, men can assault women in women's spaces already but why make it easier?

If you went on X or Bluesky and said you thought women should have their own sports and hospital wards you would get abuse for being a terf btw.

You tell us Andy. Looks like you're the one that made it.
Maybe you've spent too much time with 'right wing americans'?

I used to see these right wing americans asking "what is a woman" and pretty much dismissing any answer that did not involve vaginas.
