Can you elaborate? Have there been a spate of attacks in bathrooms from transgendered folks that I've missed? They are, of course, still single-gender spaces.

Can you elaborate? Have there been a spate of attacks in bathrooms from transgendered folks that I've missed? They are, of course, still single-gender spaces. What exactly is lost when losing a single-sex space while keeping it to a single gender?

  > In some jurisdictions, women's prisons have been incarcerating males who say they are women. Some of these males have then subsequently raped, sexually assaulted and even impregnated female inmates who have been forced to cohabit with them. Do you have any citations? I’d be fascinated to read.

    Statistically it barely registers against a backdrop of male guards raping and impregnating women in womens prison. ie. While technically 'true' it's a massive amplification of an anti trans talking point at the expense a mauch larger real issue that's ignored .. because the propogators don't actually care about women in prison, that's just a mask of concern for the sake of the pretence.

        As stated, trans prisoners pose significantly less threat than male prison guards: > This is why in women's prisons that prioritise safeguarding of inmates, sex-based staffing ratios are implemented so that there are sufficient female prison guards to keep a watchful eye on any male guards that may be present. Nice theory, doesn't appear to work in practice: https://insidetime.org/newsround/male-officer-jailed-over-sex-acts-with-female-prisoners/ https://insidetime.org/newsround/male-officer-jailed-over-se... etc. etc. etc. ( there are many examples of this, in the UK and elsewhere )

      Technically true, but let's not talk, because it goes against the narrative some people are trying to push. Nice. And then people wonder why all sorts of conspiracy theories pop up and post-truth stuff takes off.

Gender is a social construct and closer to a hobby. Sex is the only real thing that matters.
