I agree with all of that - but does anyone have the faintest clue what a Gender critical trans woman is!?

Did anyone see the documentary last night on BBC2? It showed just what trans people have to go through to make brain fit with body.

Fortunately the two shops I use (plus size) have cubicles, or I'd be doing all my clothes shopping on line.
I don't expose my wobbly flesh to any human

I'm not even very comfortable stripping off when I'm on my own. No way in this lifetime would I ever use a communal changing room with either gender in.

I would feel really uncomfortable in the those circumstances. And I don't think we should be expected to put up with that. What's more I really hate open changing rooms for women.

What is wrong with wanting and asking for a bit of privacy? People always insisting on their "rights" in such circumstances and not considering the feelings of other people show a very aggressive approach. We do need to consider other peoples feelings.

TBH I would not trust some men to deliberately want to expose themselves in such circumstances. What an oppotunity to flash and it is mainly men who do this .

I'm sorry, but I would feel uncomfortable stripping off in a female changing room with intact males there. And I'm definitely pro LGBTC

What the heck?!

There is a thread about this on Mumsnet and I have totally lost the plot - even googling a definition takes me no further forward.

Am I just thick?

Why cannot we just accept people as they are, label-free, and with the freedom to enjoy anything they wish regardless of gender?

Why do folk have to take things to extremes: e.g. intact males wanting to be in female changing rooms?

A little less stridency and a more gentle approach seem better options.
