A predator not actively committing sexual violence while he’s in prison is not a sign that he is no longer a predator-it just means that he doesn’t have access to the people he wants to harm and that he requires imprisonment to keep from reoffending. As soon as he was back out, he reoffended again. As soon as he’s among a more vulnerable population again, what does this nitwit think will happen?

Why would people even bother to put others in jail if it's not because of the simple fact that people who commit crimes have the potential to re-commit crimes... She is not using logic and reason. Might as well let the criminal just roam free and snoop around women's bathrooms if she wants to go this route.

⁠@@Disher12345 who knows but I believe in a theory that some women who are strongly pushing this are very deep into their ideological beliefs that women and men are not only equal in every aspect of society, but should be biological and psychological as well. Many “educated”women who study historical data and timelines from university subscribe to this ideology because they developed a sense of feeling “left out” in the historical achievements and visibility in society due to their biological differences from men. These are women understand and have come to terms that some important attributes are reserved for men and women no matter how much we view each other as socially equal. The transgender ideology is their golden (and manipulative) ticket to tear down the remaining barriers. Many of them believe that with transgender women fully accepted, “women” will no longer be viewed as the weaker, shorter, baby carrying sex from a historical perspective. “Women” can now be assertive in historical events, dominate in sport archives, protecter of the household and so on. Trans women will be the loophole to manipulate historical roles and achievements based on gender/sex. There is also benefit to having trans men within their ideology. No longer will “men” be viewed as the taller, physically stronger, assertive/dominant, sperm giving sex. Equality began as a necessity, but now it is a toxic fantasy.
