The horns of the dilemma

To clarify, where Nicola Sturgeon failed:

If trans women are women, as seems to be the belief behind the Scotland Gender Bill and the current policy whereby convicts are imprisoned according to their declared gender rather than their sex, then there's no reason to move convicted rapists like "Isla Byrson" away from a women's prison. He says he's a woman, therefore that's his declared gender, therefore a women's prison is where he should be. However violent and threatening, a woman criminal must still be housed in a women's prison.

But clearly this Isla Bryson shouldn't be housed in a women's prison: he's a convicted rapist. How to get out of this dilemma? It's not possible to deny that trans women are women, because that's the basis of the whole SNP policy, and they're not prepared to give that up. Are there then some trans women who aren't really trans women, but are, as it were, pretend trans women? If you acknowledge this, then you're agreeing with all those feminist campaigners who've been saying all along that the system of self-ID is clearly open to manipulation by unscrupulous sexual offenders - the same feminists who you've been ignoring or insulting as bigots. 

So, which should it be? The horns of the dilemma are clear: either abandon the whole gender TWAW nonsense, or admit that you were wrong about male abusers trying to game the system. Since either option would leave you looking very foolish, Sturgeon and the SNP are left there wriggling...
