This is the end of my column that caused THAT letter that meant I left The Guardian.
' Male violence is an issue for women, which is why we want single-sex spaces. Vulnerable women in refuges and prisons must be allowed to live in safe environments '
'the common enemy here is the patriarchy, remember? How did we arrive at a situation where there are shocking and rising numbers of teenage girls presenting at specialist clinics with gender dysphoria, while some who have transitioned are now regretful and infertile?'
Women have the right to call out the violent men who rape. We have the right to speak and organise without being told that speech is itself dangerous. You can tell me to “die in a ditch, terf” all you like as many have for years'
but I self-identify as a woman who won’t go down quietly.
There are more of us than you think"
V close to Labour policy the party that yr paper supports.Any one of you letter writers or those who sent me support IN PRIVATE gonna raise your precious heads above the parapet now?

Natasha Kennedy of Goldsmiths was the Agp behind your leaving as he was a Guardian moderator (with Roz Kaveney) On Facebook he released your address and encouraged troons to put faeces in your letterbox whilst laughing at the idea of you being raped and hung from a fishing line.

Most men are nice. Some are predators. That’s why most men accept restrictions on where they can go to help keep their sisters, mothers and daughters safe. Transwomen are a subset of men with exactly the same risk of offending. If we can accept these restrictions why won’t they?

Yes been that way forever, women are largely always the victims of crimes. Which is why I encourage them to be armed at all times. And men need to be better and protect women and especially children!

To be fair, you were skating on thin ice there. Nobody* likes a woman telling it like it is.
*Well, when I say 'nobody' I mean thin-skinned, needy men and their simpering female allies.

There are 78000 prisoners in the UK
4000 women
230 trans people
Of the 180 or so trans women in prison, 174 are in men's prisons, 6 are in women's prisons. The vast majority of transwomen want to remain in men's prisons.
