It happens every so often. 2 prison rapes jn Arizona got to be pretty high-profile.
It's only 'controversial' to Sky. >

Yeah it's so controversial that even though I live in Scotland this is me hearing of it for the 1st time. 
I am aware of a somewhat controversial bill which wants to mandate female representation on a companies board of directors. The bill will make it so a trans person on the board counts as having a women and some women feel this only serves to marginalise women (from birth) in business. >

Those people are what we in the biz call 'incredibly fucking stupid and deranged'
Trans people are at the bottom of every metric for quality of life right next to indigenous people. No one is giving us board of directors positions out of some liberal kindness of their heart but somehow also disdain for cisgender women >

What does this even mean in the context of Scotland where the legislation was passed?
We have reached a strange point in society where people casually blur international borders and laws and no-one seems to notice or care. >

None of these links relate to what I said, who are the Scottish indigenous people you're referring to? >

The word "Scotland" is literally in 3 out of the 4 links they posted and the fourth linked study mentions Scotland immediately. You didn't bother to actually read anything they linked to, did ya? >

In Europe, the Indigenous people are the majority so the comment above that trans people are as vulnerable as majority (white) Scots doesn't make sense in this context. (and is unintentionally problematic) I'm sure this was not the intent of the above poster but the guy above you was criticising that comment.
So no, the links don't address their question - you're being unnecessarily rude and American. >

You are trying to explain that rationnally to someone crazy thinking the world is a US suburb.
They are americans they dont understand the concept of other cultures and never will. They will talk shut about slavery in Scotland, Roe vs Wade in China and all matter of crazy shit. >

I’m gonna just repost that in the United Kingdom, recorded rapes in 2020 netted a 1.6% summonses rate. 
Not conviction. Not sentencing. Summonses.
The idea that a would-be rapist would dress as a woman to somehow escape prosecution is fucking laughable in the face of that statistic. >


This is why there's a debate about making the process easier. It currently requires letters from two separate and unrelated medical professionals, while there's a 3-5 year waiting list just for starting transgender care at all.

Those links might cover it in a shorter span, but I'm also going to toss Philosophy Tube's most recent video into the ring as well. 
It's an hour and half video covering her experience trying to get the NHS to help her transition, the stone walling she got, and then the subsequent war she waged against the NHS bureaucracy trying to get answers. It can get pretty emotional near the mid to end parts, but its incredibly well put together. >

"controveresial"

IT PASSED WITH A SUPERMAJORITY. >

You've misspelled 'controversial' AND misunderstood what it means. Bravo. >

So the argument is that violent men might abuse this to gain access to “single-sex” spaces?
Has that actually happened or is this an imagined threat?
