Yes. So well observed - the Los Angeles Times Article is nonsensical to the extent it would trump Alice Through The Looking Glass. Incredibly the garbage expostulates: "But no one has an absolute right to feel comfortable all the time. " As if that wasn't precisely the argument for why some men should have access to women's spaces. That's precisely what is claimed ad nauseam. Men who think they are women shouldn't be forced to use men's spaces because THAT WOULD MAKE THEM FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE and discriminated against. Trans people have the right to feel comfortable ALL the time apparently - only women do not have such a right. The hypocrisy is mind blowing and still people pretend they don't see it.

Thank you! It's a point that needs to be made more often–the notion that people are entitled to feel "good" at all times. This is how the current generation is being raised, and it's a recipe for making a sociopath. "...the average American has no civil rights that “trans” identified people don’t have. In fact, according to my definition of “trans,” I’m the one holding the short stick: “Trans” is a deluxe class citizenship that entitles you to unlimited taxpayer-funded cosmetic surgery, to force your neologisms on lesser-class citizens and to have them punished for insults, real or imagined, to your hallowed trans feelings." https://irislee.substack.com/p/open-letter-to-bari-weiss?s=w
