Women are allowed to have spaces to themselves. No trans women are banned from swimming in pools or the ocean. Their battle is not for their right to swim, but to uphold their entitlement to violate social proxemics and measures of safety at the expense of women.

Its ok to open the pool also to fully transitioned transsexual women. But not for penisses. (or anyone who isn't a biological woman or a transsexual women with medical diagnosis. No self-ID, no penisses. )

Women should be allowed to assert their boundaries. There are myriad reasons why women need female-only spaces, but we shouldn't be obliged to give those reasons. No means no.

It's important that our human needs are cared for. This is the basis of Human Rights, one-size-T-shirt does not fit all.

McIver's ladies Baths was specifically created to enable women - not men - enact their female sex right of swimming without the mandatory presence of men! Men have far too many mixed sex swimming pools but as usual men demand their fake male sex right to invade female only spaces. Furthermore no male can magically morph into a fake woman! Such claims are women hating lies!

Sex, not gender.

I have had rape threats, death threats, and threats of all levels of violence for daring to say to men. I have been told I may not say no and must yield my dignity, my privacy, even my autonomy. I have been called every four letter word in the book for saying no. Now I am called a not nice or “bigot”. The names change, the violence, threats, and manipulation is the same. This shows the need for women’s spaces more not less. We say no with no hate for anyone. We say no simply because we say no. That is our choice. We choose a space for females only.

Same thing happened with Hampstead heath ponds in London. To heck with all those categories of vulnerable women who now have nowhere to go.

Single sex spaces for women and girls are necessary and should be maintained.

I used to swim there when I was travelling in Australia. So relaxing. It needs to stay a woman only space, there are sooo many other places for men and women!

Women need spaces which respect their safety, dignity and privacy. Particularly important for women of modest cultures. Women matter.
