First thing that comes to mind is prisons, most men wouldn't mind to go to a women's prison even at the price of being misgendered as they are famously much much nicer than men's. Also the law offers lots of advantages and help to women that they don't to men like lighter penal sentences, scholarships, shelter homes for victims of domestic violence...

These cunts are basically the convergence of transphobia and misandry, for some of them trans men are alienated women that just want to escape sexism against women and trans women are men that want to usurp their womanhood (whatever the fuck that even means). Source: I've met and know a bunch of these hateful people.

It's not a UK/US thing, it's a whole world thing. Including most (all?) of Europe. There exist co-ed prisons but they aren't the norm by any means in any country that I know of.
