My point was, it is women who are reaping the negative consequences. Guys wanting their gear waxed, to use women's washrooms, compete in women sports etc. I just think guys accusing them of losing their humour and kim-ness is a bit much.

That is something worth noting.

GLAAD does an annual survey in the US about attitudes toward LGBT people.  This fall, they found that for the second straight year tolerance and acceptance of LGBT people has decreased, not increased.  They put the blame on Trump and the alt-right, and vow to redouble their efforts in promoting positive media portrayals and so-on.   

A closer look at their data revealed that the decline was largely driven by a decline in acceptance among young women.  That's not a group that's involved in alt-right politics.  Maybe instead of blaming Trump and the alt-right, maybe they should ask young women what's changed.  Maybe they would hear that young women are less comfortable with LGBT people than they used to be because they're not happy about sharing their showers and changing rooms with creepy dudes who claim to be women.

Just a thought.
