That's the crux of what has women, IMO quite rightly, concerned about their rights and safety. The refusal to conceed that there IS a problem at all (and again I'll just say it; a rhetoric that comes prescribed straight from organisations like Stonewall) has inevitably lead to anger. It's gaslighting . Concerns that dangerous men will use new legislation to gain access to victims is met with "no never!" or at best "maybe but there's no proof of that". It's a flat out lie. They will, they do, they have.

I think that a middle ground approach needs to be taken.

Like in Sports for example why not have a third tier where Transwomen and Ciswomen (that are comfortable with taking on Transwomen in these events) take part, whilst the Ciswomen who aren't comfortable with taking on Transwomen in Sports still get to keep their version of the Sport.

When it comes to predators abusing the system with things like the Bathrooms etc I have no idea what should happen to try to solve that issue.
