Male Trans fever…. what about females?

It seems for weeks there have been stories about Trans children and adults. Yet interesting as usual the discourse has only explored the experience for males. whether that be biological males or trans women. No useful narrative for Trans males who are biological females. So much so that when at a conference tampons were left on the side, it caused an outrage, assuming that it was sarcasm or humour. Not one person commented that biological females and therefore trans men, have periods, require sanitary wear and use male toilets if the unisex bathroom is unavaialable.

So I have discussed the risks that men present to society, women, children, lgbt communities and any number of other minority groups. However no one has spoken up for female children who experinence boy dysmorphia. The statistics are the same, over seventy per cent are survivors of child hood sexual abuse by an adult. Yet the experience for biological females is not discussed. It offers no real sexual deviance popularity, as the biological male trans and gay men. Gay women and and Trans men are largely ignored, or in the case of the discourse on gender they are targeted within the lgbt male community as TERFs and every attempt to silence them is made. Just as it is for women. Yet Trans women are given a huge platform, appear at awards ceremonies and receive the worship that the male gender generally expects. I assume because a biological female in a suit with short hair is not as exciting to biological men ?

So in this ridicuous environment, trans men are marginalised invisible and ignored. They are likely to face risks as a minority group and none of the funky kudos of international attention and accetpance. It would have been the perfect opportunity to idntify the risk of placing biological men or women who are trans identifying, prison or care spaces with biolgically opposing people. A trans male in a male prison, would face huge issues and be at risk from abuse. Instead of expoloring the opposite gender arguments, politicians and the press just focused entirely on trans womens expereinces, that turned into the equivilent of the roman entertainment.

Again we see the greek and roman influence of gender in our modern society. They were more interested in sex with each other and small boys. Women were slaves and silent. We are replicating this ideology in 2023, in what is supposed to be a modern society. It is no surprise, however it has eradicated visible women and trans men from the picture. This is not acceptable to me and speaks volumes as to why England has not evolved particularly in the equity towards females over the past fifty years.
