Biological females are no longer allowed to call themselves women - we are now "uterus bearers."

This is just, like, not true.

Men can now legally pretend to be transwomen to gain access to women's spaces and no one is allowed to question them, because mens' entitlement trumps womens' safety.

It would be a lot easier to pay attention to this line of argument if there were any indication that you were considering on any level & weighing the importance of transwomen being able to use women's spaces. But you don't because you consistently identify transwomen as men.

"This is just, like, not true."

Really? Go into a room full of trans activists and say that abortion is a women's issue, or an issue that only affects females. No, really. Try it some time. You will be called a TERF for saying "women" or "female" instead of "uterus-bearer" or "people with uteruses."

As for your second point:
1) Transwomen do need spaces of their own. This is why transwomen-only spaces should be a thing in addition to female-only spaces. There is a lot of overlap between issues faced by biological females and those faced by transwomen, but there are also many differences. Transwomen do not have to deal with issues specific to those with female biology and female socialization.
2) Biologically speaking, they are men. They were have male biology, and growing up would have been raised as male and received male socialization. This doesn't mean that they're not oppressed (because they are), but it does mean that as I alluded to before, the oppression they are subjected to is of a different nature than that of biological females, even if on the surface level there is a lot of overlap.

The truth is that there is no easy solution to this problem. But there are things that can be done. Like I said, transwomen do need spaces of their own, just like biological females needs spaces of our own. Gender neutral washrooms and locker rooms can and should be implemented wherever possible. Feminism and trans activism should be allied with each other, but they should not be seen as the same thing. Because they're not.
