    Actually no, I don’t think women’s only spaces for rape are necessarily beneficial, because I’ll point to the stupid man vs bear argument.

    That’s the same thinking that people use to keep trans people out of specific bathrooms. Fear of some small few despicable criminal elements shouldn’t be used as an excuse to sow fear against entire swathes of population.

    A women who has been raped shouldn’t be coached into believing that all men are rapists and should be assumed to be rapists. Additionally, allowing men in would serve to destigmatize the concept of male rape. Where are men who have been sexually assaulted supposed to go?

    As for the minorities being less interested, I was simply going off some polling numbers I saw during the election. I forget which stats specifically but I remember seeing some numbers that struck me as counterintuitive. Think it was something like Hispanics here actually being in favor of stronger border control and whatnot.
