Trans activists vs Rape Relief shelter

Vancouver's longstanding rape relief shelter, famous in the past for having female staff express desires to 'kill all men', was vandalized today by trans-rights activists.
Apparently the trans-rights people complained about the center's unwillingness to allow trans-women into the facility:
Those running the shelter, which has been open since 1973, say that they are dedicated to ending male violence against women and want to provide a space free from biological males where the victims they are serving can comfortably heal. Activists have taken issue with this, declaring that transwomen are women and should thus be entitled to the center’s services. 
Hilla Kerner, spokeswoman for Rape Relief, explained to City News that “women who are born female and socialized to submit to male domination do not feel comfortable around women who may appear and sound like men and don’t share the same life experience.”
This is nothing short of a shit-show of insane people trying to outdo each other.

The feminist community has a lot of blame to shoulder for pushing intersectionality, inclusiveness and all the rest. These are, of course, the same types of people who decry categorization as a means of enforcing power. Yes, the same women cling to 'biological maleness' as a clear form of categorization.

I find it hard to feel sympathy for left wing feminists when trans-females want to be included in a rape relief shelter.  You wanted inclusivity, you got it.
