It isn't trans and non-binary individuals who are a threat, it is men like Tate leading a rise in misogyny. It takes unity to combat that toxicity. Discrimination against trans and non-binary individuals feeds the division they need to twist young people's minds. 1/

This is what it comes down to in terms of how we actually function in society: not “what is a woman?”, but “how do you know I’m a woman?” Nobody has ever asked to inspect my gametes or chromosomes. Presentation is literally all anyone is going on.

If men want to rape us they do not need to “pretend” to be women to get into our toilets or our changing rooms. They can just…rape us, in those spaces or other public spaces or in our workplaces or our homes, and they can be statistically pretty certain that they will never face punishment for this.

Statistically in Britain if you are a cis man and you rape someone you are overwhelmingly likely to get away with it, there is a vanishingly small likelihood that you will be convicted. That is a feminist issue. Trans women wanting to use women’s toilets or play women’s football: not so much.
