But, there are two safe-space arguments here coming into conflict. One is: "we want to create a safe space for "women," where "women" is "people who identify as women."" The other safe-space argument is "we want to create a safe space for "women," where "women" is "people with genitals x, but who may define themselves as either men or women."" Who are we committed to creating a safe space for?

The more I think about it, the more I wonder if this isn't the same argument that the Michigan's Womyn's Music Festival has every single year...there's more on the next post about this, "baby steps."
