Making a statement like "I'm biologically female" can only help people realise how far and how ridiculous this stuff has gone - on the plus side. Such a shame for the actual female staff having to put up with this crap though, nursing is a difficult enough job as it is without having to face this stuff every time you go to work as well

yep and of course it was the female nurse who was suspended let the transwoman used disabled toilets to change, that is what they want women to do

I think it's what woke up most middle ground here is they didn't really believe the propaganda about how "extreme" the new wave really was... instead you have to see it for yourself, otherwise it's very easy to deny that people could be this insistent.

I would've never had to think about how grateful I would be when I was in a maternity ward for extensive hospitalization that there weren't men there present. I'm not a self-conscious type of person by any means so it's not like that, but I definitely was in a fragile state medically given I had to go on magnesium for postpartum preeclampsia and having women who understood the fragility of that was helpful in a stressful environment... I am not a fan of hospitals, I have learned.

Absolutely.

That must have been a scary time for you. I just can't believe how some people are so unconcerned about women's feelings on these issues and act like we don't really care about them, that it's just an excuse to bash trans people. There are so many instances, just like your own example where women are in very vulnerable positions and really need or would prefer female only care and space

It's an easy way to dismiss women, its the only explanation, I can't believe people cannot see the issues

Yeah, it's very frustrating
