    What even IS the importance of sex?

      Women bear children, so are materially disadvantaged when it comes to sex. They can be raped and get pregnant as a result. This can’t happen to men. There’s also sexual dimorphism meaning women are weaker on average. This means special laws are needed to protect women specifically.

    I’m sorry, you can go to prison for “using the wrong pronouns”? What dystopian hell hole do we live in?

      It could be classed as a hate crime. Don’t worry you ain’t going to get jailed for accidentally using the wrong pronouns.

        I still think it’s idiotic, and I say that as a trans person.
