How do you feel about men who claim to be trans in womens dressing rooms at the gym??

I admit, I’m not comfortable with it. Basically, if someone who has a penis is in women’s spaces, it’s coed.
@bijouxbroussard So you don't respect trans women? Women are more than their reproductive organs. And what about intersex people?
@AmbivalentFriability It’s my discomfort. But I’m 64 years old and come from a world where people with penises are male. The trans people I’ve known had surgery, and I was okay with that. Women are indeed more than our sex organs, but they (those sex organs) are a big part of our shared experience as women. 🥺

@Mattypp that was a poor attempt at English. But I appreciate the effort, I grade it F+.
@bijouxbroussard Maybe your discomfort is not the priority. It is not the fault of trans people that the gender binary has been so brutally enforced through colonization.
@AmbivalentFriability I understand; my comfort level is a priority to me, and I’m only speaking for myself, based upon my life experiences.

It may come to a point where everything becomes coed and there are no longer observed gender differences of any kind.

But it will take some getting used to.
