There is no (or very little) violence against trans people's physical existence. Trans activists have popularized a notion that there is a genocide happening to wipe out trans people, this is the same populist intox that the far right use (great replacement theory, great reset theory, etc).

Arguing against an ideology is not violence, and if you believe that your entire existence and identity is at risk because it depends on an ideology that can be disproved, then perhaps you should consider not basing your existence and identity on an ideology.

no physical violence maybe, but the psychological violence impact is so huge and hurtful to us

Could you consider the psychological violence to women of biological males harassing us in our supposedly safe spaces?

Could you consider the psychological violence to women of biological males competing in our sports category when they are physically much stronger than us, obviously winning all the trophies and making a mockery of our achievements?

Could you consider the psychological damage to children of telling them that they are in the wrong body, that they need to be sterilized and mutilated and medicated for the rest of their lives, which may not be long anyway since the drugs used to suppress puberty permanently damage their bones and cause other severe medical problems?

Could you consider the psychological damage to lesbians of telling them that they must date biological males or be banned and censored from their own spaces, doxed and receive death and rape threats?

1. Again, I don't support this kind of violence. Plus because of a transgender woman being violent, does it mean all of trans folks are violent as well ? I don't really get the point here.

2. Presence of trans folks in sports is a tricky subject I don't really know much about, I don't really want to engage on this. But there's some studies saying the gap between trans & cis women isn't really clear : https://www.bbc.com/sport/61346517

3. Children are NEVER forced to transition, and nobody except oneself is able to know and say they're trans. Surgical transition isn't authorized on minors (or it shouldn't). The advice of the child should always be asked.

4. Nobody forced anyone to date transgender women. These bans are against transphobes who don't even respect trans folks.

All of these arguments don't represent what trans community thinks about all this. Trans community (as all of the LGBTI+ community) supports lesbians, the community just doesn't stand transphobic ppl.

I understand your focus on trans genitals, but is it a reason to start a crusade against the entirety of the trans community ?

Banning and censoring me from lesbian safe spaces for not being sexually attracted to "girldick" is not supporting me, it is homophobia. The "LGBTQIAS+" alphabet nonsense is not my community, and it is not the gay community, transgender and queer has nothing to do with homosexuality and it has nothing to do with the oppression we have faced, except in as much as yet again I find biological males telling me what I can and can't do.

I am not interested in the trans community, you can have your own space if you want. But the trans community wants to exclude me from MY space. You seem to think that slapping a label of "transphobe" on me for whatever reason gives you permission to oppress me in any way you want. What is your definition of "transphobe"? Someone who refers to you with pronouns you don't want them to? If so you are trying to police other people's thoughts.

1. It does not mean that all trans people are violent. But it does mean that women must be protected against the risk of violence. The violence is perpetrated almost exclusively by biological males. So biological males need to be excluded from women's safe spaces (toilets, abuse shelters, prisons).

3. Children cannot by their very nature give informed consent, just as they cannot give informed consent for sex, therefore "the advice of the child" is worthless. Transition IS being imposed on children in anglophone countries, strangers are deciding for the child if they qualify as trans and the parents are being overridden or kept in the dark. You can research many examples of this. Here are examples of it being imposed on children as young as two years old: https://100percentfedup.com/sick-three-leading-n-carolina-hospitals-offer-gender-affirming-care-to-children-as-young-as-2-yrs-old/

4. A transphobe is being defined by trans rights activists as someone who doesn't want to date transgender woman, so your logic is circular. Trans activists are literally banning people for saying they don't want to sleep with them. And the spaces that they are being banned from are spaces that were created by them and for them. It is as if I invited you into my house, then you stole my keys, said it is your house now and kicked me out because I didn't want to sleep with you.
