Not that I'm saying that this is how I stated it yesterday, obviously, but still. Surely it's OK to question the origins of a thought process without people being grossly offended or accusing people of "telling them what they think" or "reading minds".

Except it's not just I need some more information on their thoughts... folk are being told what their real thoughts actually are...

That's why I included the part in bold? It's OK if you don't want to commit to an answer, though.

My issue is with self identification for both genders as I think it’s going to be abused and will create problems, I don’t have particular issue with toilets and changing areas or any issues around safety, as if a male wants to commit a crime they can just walk into any ladies toilet anyway, it’s not like anyone would be there to stop them

I misunderstood that part as I thought that meant that you meant you paraphrasing your own quote. Call me stupid.

@Bold And this is what I mean... this statement makes some sort of assumption here, that I don't commit to my answers?... wtaf? Where did that come from???...

But it's not... It's genuinely asking for an answer, but saying that I'm not going to think negatively if you don't want to answer it, since I don't want to be accused of making demands. I don't see how it in any way infers that you don't commit to answers at other times... And somewhat ironically... Is deciding that it implies that not exactly the "mind reading" you're talking about?

Ok, thanks for that TS. I'll just leave this here then.
