I don’t believe I said anything about hormone blockers and hormone replacement therapy. I mentioned the law that one could ‘self-identify,’ That said, I just provided you evidence that, far from making people happy, there were a lot of operations that cut off the penises off men, when the real problem was mental distress at being gay.
I have lived in both the US and the USA. Currently I am living in Ireland. I was in London last week, and got to speak to some people about it – people who were closely involved. I read the British press every day because I find it more reliable than the American press – although I do have a subscription to the Washington Post.
I did not mention a bathroom. Bathrooms tend to have loos where one can close the door. I repeat this is about areas where there are many women, and they are ‘women only areas.’ I mentioned women only swimming pool area.
I am providing links to stories about men who pretended to be women in order to get into women’s areas.
Serial killer and rapists have NEVER walked into women’s only areas and raped and killed women simply because there were too many women in those areas. Also, they would have been stopped at the entrance because they were men. So that is hardly an argument. This is an issue about privacy, not about rapists.
“It is important to note that the concern is not that transgendered individuals are more likely to be sexual predators, but rather that sexual predators could exploit such laws by posing as transgendered in order to gain access to women and girls.”
