It is mostly the T that feminists have issues with, though the Ls have significantly higher rates of domestic abuse than any other relationships, so I could see some feminists having criticisms. A biological man going into a women's bathroom makes many (most?) biological women feel unsafe. Many feminists think that women feeling unsafe is not a good a thing and are fighting against it.
To call women who want to feel safe in a bathroom a traitor to feminism is just so ridiculous and is a betrayal of women. I haven't look at any stats, but from I have been seeing it appears like the so called trans-exclusionary feminists are growing regardless if you call them a traitor.
Wanting women to feel safe is such a basic tenant of feminism.
- piperswe 1y agoI wouldn't be surprised if significantly more cis women were harassed by anti transgender "feminists" in womens' restrooms than harassed by actual transgender women in womens' restrooms. People worrying about whether other people belong in a specific restroom are the real safety risk.
- ImJamal 1y agoPerhaps, but it is the fear of a biological man is in their private space that is causing them to have friendly fire.
- Jensson 1y agoIssue is you can't tell the difference between a man calling himself a woman to harass women and a man calling himself a woman since he feel he is a woman. That is the main reason people are against these things, it doesn't matter if the "real trans people" are not an issue.
- piperswe 1y agoSource for a "man calling himself a woman to harass women" actually going into women's restrooms to do that? I'm not aware of any substantial number of instances, especially compared to the instances I've seen of women being harassed by other women because of this line of thinking.

- kelseyfrog 1y agoWhat is a biological man? Man and woman are gender terms, not scientific terms. It makes as much sense as saying hexagonal anger. Clarify?
- ImJamal 1y agoYou know exactly what I am saying. Please don't try to play semantics.
- kelseyfrog 1y agoHuh? It's a weird sounding term. No need to get hysterical. Looking it up, it sounds like some kind of incel term?
- ImJamal 1y agoYou can't be serious? If you want to use the more modern terms then biological means cis as opposed to trans.
- kelseyfrog 1y agoSorry if I'm not getting it, but how can someone biologically be a gender? I get that someone can be a sex, but it's not clear how you see that working.
- Jensson 1y agoTo some people gender is basically sex. Simple as that. So a person can see themselves as a woman but others are free to see them as a man, because this isn't a scientific term as you say. Its like how some call men who didn't conform to male norms "girlies" or so, these things are so ill defined that its dumb to argue over it. Of course it is rude to call something they don't wanna be called though.
- ImJamal 1y agoI am talking about sexes and you know it. Please stop being so obtuse. Anybody old enough to be here have heard people using the phrase biological man.
- antifa 1y agoInteresting that they pick transpeople to have a phobia over, considering the fact is you're far more likely to be assaulted in the bathroom by a cis man, transvestigator, republican, Christian, or ICE agent than a transwoman.
- ImJamal 1y agoI'm a little confused. There are already rules and laws banning a cisman from going into women's bathrooms. There isn't a law or rules at the location, in many states, stopping trans women from going into women's bathrooms. Most cismen look like a stereotypical man. Some transwomen look like a stereotypical women which is what makes the situation harder to stop. You could theoretically put a guard at a bathroom and stop most cismen. You would only stop some transwomen. > considering the fact is you're far more likely to be assaulted in the bathroom by a cis man, transvestigator, republican, Christian, or ICE agent than a transwoman.
