I have no idea what there is not to understand about this…and why it’s mostly men complaining about “protecting women’s spaces”, lol.
This might upset some people, and you know what? Good.
If this upsets you, at least the others will know and the trash can take itself out.
Statistics show men are constant threat to women. It’s not even the same, and I say this as a cis man.
Thank you for saying the truth. 1 in every 4 women in the US have been raped.
*at least. Statistics on SA are almost certainly underreported.
Thank you for saying so, you’re completely correct.

Not all men but always a man.
In this thread: you.
That’s not true and you know it. Don’t spread misinformation; be better than that.
The vast majority of perpetrators are men and it’s not even close. There, happy?
Yes, much better. Thank you for being better than the one spreading misinformation.
Who’s spreading misinformation…?
The majority of the statements I’ve seen here (not the ones from the now-banned users) have been nothing but truthful
The person I responded to said “always a man.” If that were true then that means a woman has never been a rapist. There is plenty of evidence proving them wrong.
Multiple things can be true at the same time. If I use this as an example, all men being rapists doesn’t mean female rapists don’t exist.
They do and not all men are rapists. It’s just that the vast majority of rapists are men and the vast majority of victims are women :P
🙄
I hope you have this same energy towards comments supporting rapists and don’t save being pedantic for women expressing anger at rape.
No one is generalizing all men. Statistically, men are a FAR greater threat to women than vice versa. Additionally, men are a far greater threat to cis women than trans women are. It isn’t even close. It isn’t something intrinsic to being a man, or all men, but it is due to a set of societal standards that value men above women.
If you hear women being afraid of men, don’t take it personally. I am afraid of men I don’t know not because all men are dangerous, but because you cannot tell a predator by looking at them. Again, it’s not all men. No one is saying that. It’s just the vast majority of sexual predators are men, and women are statistically much more likely to be in danger from a man. I have been sexually assaulted, and I won’t spare a second thought for the idea that protecting myself might hurt another man’s feelings.
Oh no how will you cope with facts?

The answer is to let people use the restroom that they feel fits the best and prosecute the people who predate on others.
It’s not difficult and it’s not confusing.

First off - how dare you take that man vs bear debate and frame women choosing the bear as TERFs.
Second - Restrooms aren’t safe spaces, men have gone into restrooms to assault women before and will continue to do so no matter what sign is on the door.
Third - giving in to our unfounded fears and punishing innocents for our own lack of education isn’t an option. It shouldn’t be an option. Trans women are not inherently dangerous to cis women.
