To clarify a bit, the reason that this is a mess is because in UK law rape is done only by men.
So because a law, that I assume was supported by feminists, that protected women rapists , now they have a choice between being "bigoted" towards trans or allow women to be raped without being rape.
Clearly there is a solution to make biological distinction between sexes and keep their "special" status but that would mean that the law makes a distinction between women and biological women, the shitstorm would be a lot more fun then anything Netflix will ever make.
The other option is to change the definition of rape to cover both sexes.
Either way I consider that a win as long as the issue is not ignored.
