Man who identified as a woman was allowed in our all-women's shelter.
Man who identified as a woman was allowed in our all-women's shelter. It was the wrong call (OPINION), May 24, 2016, Malta Davis, Guest Columnist, Oregon Live
In June 2014, I was admitted to a women's homeless shelter in Northeast Portland. This was my second attempt to lift myself out of homelessness through the assistance of Transition Projects, which runs the shelter.
Like most of the residents, I was there because I had run out of options. None of us was thrilled about living with as many as 60 other women. Our only task was to make the most of it so we could transition into something better.
A few weeks into my stay, I returned to find a number of women in distress. Reportedly, one woman had even fled the shelter in terror.
What was wrong? What was the uproar about? An answer soon followed: The shelter had admitted a man who "self-identified" as a woman. No doubt this was not a first for the shelter; it was, however, a first for those of us who were relative newcomers.

With the discussion focused on public restrooms and locker rooms, I ran across this and wondered, what about women's homeless shelters?
I didn't see this posted.

4. That's an anti-abortion, anti-LGBT garbage site
Calling it garbage is an insult to garbage, though.

5. That assault was covered in mainstream media sources as well.

You are 100% correct about LifeSiteNews.com though.

1. I have done volunteer work repairing a small women's shelter in a two bedroom house with
with bunk beds, the women seem pretty fragile to me and already have enough on their minds, having a transgender joining them in that little living room and in their bedroom, might not be popular with them.

Where else should they go?

Jail, a mens room or a hooker palace or a plumbing job.

This can become the slippery slope, which a lot of conservatives have predicted all along.

OregonLive.com is the website of the Portland Oregonian, a medium-large MSM newspaper. Either REP lied or mistook it for some other site. The former works for me.
The fireworks should be interesting on DU when, instead of a homeless shelter, it's a battered women's shelter! Lesbian-on-lesbian and gay-on-gay domestic violence is, IIRC, proportionally more common than heterosexual M-on-F domestic violence. So I'm not suggesting an unrealistic hypothetical case - it's a question of when, not if.
Progs created this "brave new world", so DU-folk need to :ownit: !

3. SF has an all-LGBT shelter.
http://kron4.com/2015/06/17/nations-first-lgbt-homeless-shelter-opens-in-sf/
Jazzie’s Place, the first homeless shelter for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender adults in the U.S., opened in San Francisco’s Mission District today to help serve the housing needs of nearly a third of the city’s homeless population who identify as LGBT.
Can you just imagine what a zoo that is?
That article generated exactly one comment:

They shouldn't be allowed to be gay and homeless at the same time. One or the other, but not both.

12. Who makes this decision?
Some people are gender fluid and may at any time identify as male, female, genderqueer, pangender, trigender, other non-binary identity, or any combination of identities.
Oh stuff it, you freak. Many of these women are vulnerable and under severe stress, some have run from wifebeaters. They don't need some creepy predator in the place they've gone to get off the streets.

For all their preening themselves as being compassionate and caring, I don't think many - if any - have thought past their ideology and rhetoric to understand the obvious and insoluble issues/problems implementing their ideology generates.

Bears, fruit bats, and rabid beavers. Yup, a zoo.

And a mentally ill, drug abusing, homeless man would never falsely claim to be a tranny, just to get a place to sleep, food, fresh clothes, and access to vulnerable women and girls- would he?

Underway (past just "next up"):
* Women's sports (HS/college/pro) become all tranny -- no room for people born as women who can't beat people born as men
* No more sororities or fraternities or any other unisex club (does this include the tranny->f club)?
* No more "Curves" gym for women only
* lockers in all gyms down to Jr. Hi are now coed
Keep your popcorn warm and buttery!

Opening women's and girls' sports to trannies (or false trannies) may ruin them. It's already happening to MMA.

Short of going under the knife, ones gender can not change.
The wanton disregard of reality among the left these days is nothing short of staggering.

I doubt it will be just womens sports. They'll be gunning for football before long, from peewee to professional.

With some teams, it would be an improvement. (cough- Eagles- cough)

A femtomale tranny would still have to be good enough to make a mans team. However, it's going to kill women's sports.

We need to work on persuading DU-folk that the laws of Physics are a social construct. My recommendation would be to start with gravity.

I doubt most DUmmies believe in gravity, since it's sort of a faith-based thing. They can't see it, touch it, smell it, smoke it, or eat it, so to most of them it most likely doesn't exist.

Gender fluid. It's the juices you wash off ... after.

It's because everything these people do leads to the slope. Liberals never think of the future. They just get an idea in their head and go at it full throttle and damn the consequences. Ritalin should be mandatory for abyone who identifies as Democrat.

It is amazing how little compassion some DUmmies have for women in crisis.
A dog is a fish is a bike is a woman. Just a tool to be used for the left's own purpose.
