Women are adult human females and are allowed groups that represent only them and their interestsm

I was going to join up and I would love to be part of a "sisterhood" in a safe space, but when I read the policy about Trans and Non-Binary being able to access the WI and be included in a females safe space, I no longer wanted to join up

Women need safe spaces of our own - not just for our physical safety but emotional as well. Places where we can just be ourselves. Please don't compromise the women's spaces of the WI.

Since I read the policy I have been uncomfortable. It was circulated during Covid time and therefore not widely discussed.

The WI should be a protected space for biological women and their specific needs and interests.

Women need to be allowed to meet without men present.

Men can never be women and women deserve a private space for themselves, like the WI.

Spaces and groups where females can gather and support each other are needed now more than ever

I've not enough money and have a disability so I'm not a member but for those who are they should be able to discuss and meet without biological men there

As a member of the W I for many years I feel the members should have been consulted, consequently I will not be renewing my membership this month.

The rights of REAL women need to be protected. Trans should NOT be permitted.

If transwomen are accepted then it means men are also accepted. Any man who puts on a dress and says he is a woman will be allowed into the WI. This is wrong. WI should support single spaces for women.

Keep women's institute single sex. Say no to Autogynaephiles. Don't expose your female members to male sexual fetish.
