It’s not who passes for a woman… it’s not that some restrooms have men and women in. In those particular restrooms the women understand the deal. The problem is men in women’s restrooms as a norm.

It’s not who passes for a woman… it’s not that some restrooms have men and women in. In those particular restrooms the women understand the deal. The problem is men in women’s restrooms as a norm. Because if that is legalised across the board, then it’s an exponential problem… because some men will take advantage of those rules, as some men have done in women’s prisons, to the point of rape and impregnating a woman.
If I’m walking behind a woman at night, I make a point of crossing the road because I know there is a thought in her head, a thought that I wouldn’t have, if the situation was reversed and she was walking behind me.
Namely, that she might be at risk of harm.
Some people answer that with ‘well, we can all be at risk of harm at some point’ to which I say, imagine hearing a noise on the stairs as you’re trying to sleep…. It’s dark…. You get up cautiously and go look but as your hand reaches the handle of the door,
the door bursts open and a figure pushes you to the ground.

They leave. It could have been worse.
Now, go to bed the next night.
Tell me you’re gonna sleep like a baby.
Tonight, it just might be worse.
And on. And on.
You’ve entered the world of what might happen. And you’re on your guard in a way you weren’t the night before it happened.
That is a woman’s world.
Always.
This shit is ok when it’s over there, way over there… not in our jurisdiction…. But we always see a little bit more when we live it a little.

And for men not to get that,
where women are concerned,
Is kinda strange to me, and a touch sad.
Spot on, Mike, you've got it.
