“Just send in the trans men” is not a fucking solution. It suggests that we can just walk into the ladies room and go “oh, but I have a vagina, I’m supposed to be here!” and they’ll be like “ah damn, I guess you can go ahead”. Transmascs have been beaten, arrested, and even murdered trying to use the women’s room. We aren’t your human shields, we’re in just as much danger
all they have to do is invite like 30 trans men to the capital for a week and you will see a quick repeal of this policy.

“we aren’t your human shields”
I’m sorry but who is being shielded in this situation?
People expect us to march in and bear the brunt of transphobia to defend the rights of trans women
