I'm so sorry that happened to your wife. When I learned about the way that trans "women" harass lesbians, that's when the scales finished falling from my eyes about the whole trans business. It's just one more way for men to demand sexual gratification from all vaginas everywhere. It's the violence of any man anywhere who has encountered a woman who feels justified in setting a boundary of any kind. Men's fists are justice, but women's boundaries are violence, and somehow these men figured out that as long as they slap on some dimestore lip gloss and call themselves Poledancerina, their misogyny is woke now.

We've been second class human beings behind the ones with penises since time began. Now, we're second class WOMEN behind the ones with penises. Ishtar weeps.

I have a social worker colleague with decades of experience in the Pennsylvania penal system. Her specialty was counseling for sex offenders. A few years ago, she was asked to help decide the contentious issue of whether transgender woman would be housed in the male facility vs the female facility. She thought about it for a few nano-seconds and said, “people with penises go with the men.”
