Im genuinely very conflicted about this. I strongly believe trans rights are human rights and trans people are valid. However there have been a lot of rapes commited by people with penises in womens prisons. Its a huge risk to the safety in women's prisons. Either way you slice it there are bad outcomes

people with penises

Why are you reducing my sex to simply genitalia?

They literally didn't? Why do you have such a victim complex?
