hi everyone I'm Maria Maclachlan. I have a couple of longer videos in the making, but today I got distracted by 37 seconds worth of Jammie Dodger being as irredeemably awful as she always is. This won't take long.

we just want to protect women in women's spaces

no you don't you don't give a damn about women in spite of being one yourself. Oh I see you're quoting those of us who do want to protect ourselves in our spaces.

This is a valid important thing

really? Why how uncharacteristically decent, magnanimous, and empathic of you to say so. Where's the catch?

but when framed in the context of discussing trans people is transphobic

ah. there it is. Women's safety is only valid and important, as long as the common sense measures to preserve it don't offend the sensibilities of the gender cultists. Everything that doesn't prioritize the feelings of trans identifying people over everyone else, is transphobic.

specifically when discussing trans women the intention of this sentence in a trans context is to exclude trans women from women's spaces

because they're men and don't belong in women's spaces! This is the most common sense measure to protect women. Keep certain spaces single sex.

therefore jeopardizing the safety of trans women

oh my god. women are such evil, selfish, witches putting our own feelings and comfort and safety above those of men, Aren't we? How are we jeopardizing their safety?

the trans women do not pose any kind of threat or danger to cis women within women's spaces

that is the most disgusting and unconscionable falsehood that I see being perpetrated by supporters of this deeply misogynistic movement. When I launched my website four years ago, I didn't realize how big and serious the problem of trans identifying men sexually abusing women and especially children was. I felt slightly anxious about including a page about crimes on my website. And I acknowledged in the very first line that some were only pretending to identify as trans women by which I meant they didn't wear woman face all the time.
