That response elaborates on why some cis-women experience cis-womanhood as a continuous trauma-and if that is how those women experience their gender identity, it’s no one else’s place to question that-but it does not explain why these women cannot accept that living with a female gender identity within a technically male body is also traumatic. Why is it that the relatively small number of cis-women who identify as “trans exclusionary” not feel any empathy for the trauma and suffering trans women feel? And why do they perceive trans-women in women’s restrooms as potential sexual assailants when all statistics gathered on sexual assault cases indicate that trans women(and trans men, for that matter) are the gender demographics least likely to commit sexual assault and most likely to be victims OF sexual assault?
