Women's-Only Gym Faces Backlash for Excluding Trans Women - Newsweek

I know plenty of men who technically qualify to join, would she accept them in her gym? I feel like suddenly she'd change definitions to exclude trans men though, because it's not about "biology" like she says.

Good, transphobes suck and they're not really solving any problems by being pieces of shit to us trans women. You know that trans are disproportionately more likely to be sexually and physically assaulted despite what transphobes would tell you about us being groomers and rapists 🙄

i have a somewhat out there idea: what if you just operate a gym that tosses people out on their ass if they misbehave, and don't arbitrarily restrict who is allowed to use it based on physical characteristics?

i'll never understand the logic behind gender-separated spaces, as if people would never misbehave towards someone of their own gender..

From the article:

"Addressing my tweet from 2021. The Girls Spot operates as a female-only gym for biological women, tackling harassment, sexual assault & violence that women face inside the gym. The tweet circling was made 4 years ago and I was in the very early stages of creating a concept."

Show me the stats that suggest that trans women are sexually assaulting women anywhere. It’s not a fucking thing. What a piece of shit. It just goes to show that people drop their support for us as soon as it becomes inconvenient to them. I could count on one hand the people in my life that still support my right to exist.
