But the judgement from the supreme court is very much the law and has immediate effect.

This is incorrect, just straightforwardly incorrect. You really need to either talk to a lawyer or fire the ones you're listening to.

You can accuse the person arguing that women need and deserve spaces where they can be guaranteed men will not be allowed of being a supporter of patriarchy as much as you like, it will remain obviously ridiculous.

99.9%. Well, right now I'm arguing with someone who wants men who day they're women to enter female spaces thus making them less safe. So that's one way

3) You are incorrect, you are in fact safer in a female only space.

1) They were, and that fact was repeated challenge by people trying to get round it by redefining the words "woman" "female" and "sex" so it's good these have been clarified.
2. Yes they should be barred from any space that is exclusively for women, because otherwise...it isn't.

I know you know that I asked about single sex spaces, not single gender identity spaces. Do you think that women have the right to have spaces which are exclusively female?

You do think that women should be able to have single sex spaces right?

I don't see how you can both know the arguments and also think that what you have described represents them. Do you think women should be able to have single sex (not gender indentity) spaces?

But look, you clearly haven't engaged with anything "GC" people have been saying so I'd recommend looking at the work of Jane Clare Jones, Sex Matters, and Emma Hilton. That would be a good starting overview.

No, no it wasn't, and isn't. Male violence is perpetrated by males, however they identify themselves. What you're describing is something that people said because when they said "transwomen are men and should stay out of female spaces" they were vilified.

If you don't ban all transwomen then it isn't a single sex space. The reason this has had to be clarified is that trans activists had conducted a very successful campaign to convince society that "woman" had no meaning except for self identification, which is the sexist nonsense you're defending.

Men finding an excuse to be misogynistic is not women's fault and no reason they should have to give up single sex spaces, even if that would somehow prevent men being misogynistic, which of course it wouldn't.

What you're avoiding is that your solution is for women to have no right to single sex spaces.

I'm not avoiding it I'm saying you're being hyperbolic. The woman in the story was wearing a hoody, someone who couldn't see her wasn't sure if she was a woman and said "those are the women's loos" the woman replied "I know" at which point the exchange ended. That isn't policing gender.

And again, it is not the GC side who think that haircuts make a woman. That's your side.

I've already told you that no solution is necessary for occasional social embarrassment. Which is all the story in that link shows. It also says that the same thing occasionally happened before the judgement

How you feel is your business but single sex spaces do make women safer as they exclude the people who commit almost all of the violence, which is men, however they identify.

Then you haven't heard of sophie molly, or India Willoughby, or seem many of the placards or heard the speeches given by trans activists on protests since the judgement.
