    I’m not making a point, I’m responding to your request: “treat trans women as women. Because that’s what they are. Name a situation where you think this would be problematic” with the Isla Bryson case.

    Initially she was treated as a woman and chucked in a female-only prison. According to you, this is 100% correct.

    I agree with your point about prisons in general not being a brilliant solution to crime, being known as universities for criminals. But that - and gendered prisons - are what we’ve got, and we aren’t going to rebuild the entire criminal justice system around the tiny number of trans criminals have a problem with this.
