"Watkin had admitted lying". So I doubt it.

Even if that's what you intended with your maximally weaselly choice of words, I will reiterate that at no point did I claim trans people are more likely to commit rape by deception than the average person, so your dismissive "Chinese robbers" was unwarranted.

Watkin was a social transitioner who frankly looks so clocky that I'm very much inclined to believe her defense that it didn't cross her mind that the guy might not have realized... I feel absolutely confident that all my trans friends' judgement on these cases would be, respectively, "Watkin was not actually trying to deceive anyone",
Well, your trans friends would be wrong:
Watkin, who was referred to in court by female pronouns, told the man she was on her period to stop him touching her below the waist, the court heard.
Why would a male person (who, by definition, cannot menstruate) falsely claim to be menstruating? Dare I say it's because he was trying to deceive someone?
A, Chinese robbers
I have to say: you've been spamming this line a lot, and at this point I don't think you know what it means.
I will remind you that I was responding to your claim that rape-by-deception trans people are "creatures of fantasy" i.e. that nothing like this ever happens. I never claimed that these two cases indicate that trans people commit rape by deception more often than average. I claimed that these two cases indicate that the number of trans people who have committed rape by deception is greater than 0 i.e. more than the amount you claimed.
When you claim that something never happens, and someone provides you with evidence that it does, in fact, happen, the appropriate response is "oh, my bad, I wasn't aware of that, thanks for letting me know". The appropriate response is not to dismiss me using a two-word rebuttal of a claim I never made.
It's really obnoxious for you to jump directly from "Group X never does this!" to "you have not presented compelling evidence that Group X does this more frequently than the typical rate in the general population" without even acknowledging that conceding the second point means that your first point was wrong.

Ah, I misinterpreted the tone, and didn't clock the username.
I don't get the sense at all that trans activism is a frustrated men's rights movement.
As I've argued before, if you go on /r/MTF and take a shot whenever you see a post which boils down to "why won't cis lesbians fuck me even though I identify as a woman?", you'll be dead of alcohol poisoning before the day is out. MtF spaces and incel spaces are alike in that they largely consist of male heterosexuals complaining about feeling sexually frustrated.
It's also a men's rights movement in a very literal sense in that it's a subset of men demanding special privileges. The reason I characterise it as such is that it's primarily asymmetric: while trans-identified males are keen to be housed in women's prisons and keen to compete in women's sporting events, the reverse is generally not true of trans-identified females. Consider this article about trans identification in the penal system. In California, well over 90% of the requests to be transferred to the opposite-sex prison came from male inmates. Some trans-identified female inmates were even housed in the male estate, but requested to be transferred to the female estate. Shock, horror: heterosexual male rapists in an environment thitherto devoid of female people don't care how a female person "identifies" or even if they've undergone a double mastectomy. Heterosexual male rapists are not attracted to anyone with "big femme energy": they are attracted to female people. Kind of surprised it took you being physically incarcerated in a men's prison before you figured this out.
Sounds like a canonical example of Rob Henderson's luxury beliefs concept. It's easy not to be racist when you never have to personally interact with someone from the Middle East or Africa. Much as "those who ‘abjure’ violence can only do so because others are committing violence on their behalf", it's generally only possible to be non-racist provided other people (namely the people who enforce your borders and the lawmakers passing your laws) are being racist on your behalf.

Adding to the above, my fiancée was underwhelmed by the Causeway but substantially more impressed terrified by the rope bridge. I've also been meaning to return to the puffin sanctuary on Rathlin Island for years, and was far more impressed by Belfast's Titanic museum than I expected to be.
The "trap" who passes perfectly and uses that to lead on a potential sex partner all the way to the bedroom is largely a creature of fantasy
There have been a surprisingly large number of "creatures of fantasy" convicted and imprisoned for rape by deception.
not behavior mainstream modern-day trans people would endorse
Curious, then, that the "rape by deception" Wikipedia article
- cites multiple trans activists affirmatively defending the "right" of trans people not to disclose their sexes prior to a sexual encounter
- doesn't cite a single trans activist who doesn't endorse this behaviour " but does cite a gender-critical feminist who does not endorse this behaviour.
Maybe Wikipedia is unrepresentative of the median opinion of trans people, maybe you move in different circles than I do, but I honestly cannot ever remember seeing a trans activist arguing that trans people have a legal and moral obligation to disclose their sex before getting into bed with someone.

Something for the future.
If you do come to Dublin, I'll show you around.
Finished Those Who Leave and Those Who Stay during the week, the third book in the Neapolitan quartet. It's the first one I can really say I enjoyed without reservation, the pacing was on point and Ferrante managed to compel empathy for certain secondary characters in a way she hadn't in previous volumes. When I started reading it I observed that, in retrospect, the first two volumes probably should have been compressed into one, an opinion that hadn't changed when I got to the end. Genuinely looking forward to reading the next one, which I can't say I felt after reading either of the first two.
On the recommendation of Rob Henderson and Theodore Dalrymple, I'm reading François de la Rochefoucald's collection of maxims. One I read this morning that I liked (I'm paraphrasing):
It is possible to find a woman who has never been in a love affair, but rare to find one who has only been in one.
It occurs to me that I know multiple femcels (either in person or people who post here), but am struggling to think of any women I know who've only been in exactly one relationship, my own mother excepted.

And I suppose you're going to tell me your lobster is too buttery as well.
it would be dickish and bizarre to chime in whenever he says "Hi, my name's Tex" and go "ackshually, your name is William; either you're lying or you're delusional".
There's a British anti-immigration activist who goes by the name Tommy Robinson. Whenever assorted progressive outlets like the Guardian or the Journal refer to him, they almost invariably include a parenthetical afterwards like "Robinson (whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon)..." It need hardly be said that both outlets scrupulously avoid referring to trans people by their "dead names".
In your opinion, is this "dickish" behaviour?

and gynosupremacy is not any different.
I don't think gender ideology and gynosupremacy are the same thing. Trans-identified males are famously filled with homicidal rage towards feminists who deny that trans-identified males are women. TERFs routinely decry the trans activist movement as a sexually frustrated men's rights movement, and it doesn't take a lot of squinting to see how they arrived at that conclusion.
Well, I don't think I'm going full "jet fuel can't melt steel beams" here. My point was that "in the last nine years, up to 2,000 people of Asian descent were convicted of sex crimes every year" is a claim consistent with the data at our disposal, compromised as it is. That's an upper bound as to how many Asian people were convicted of sex crimes. I'm sure the real figure is lower than that and the category "unknown" also includes Africans, Chinese and so on.

That was pretty much my conclusion. If the UK government had undercounted the number of native British criminals in England and Wales by 7 million, I'm sure the Guardian would be shouting that from the rooftops. Coulter's law is undefeated.

Well, I only have your word for it that she is trans. "Is Diana kurnikova trans" returns no relevant hits. Surely you can link one of these interviews.

Where did the 71% figure come from?
In the article it's labelled "Fig. 6", and it's for all convictions, not just sex crimes.

You know, I just asked ChatGPT "is Diana Korkunova trans" and it said there's no credible evidence that she is. Where did you hear she was trans?
Would "poisoning" potentially include accidental drug overdoses?
