The term used was 'safe-spaces' and 'exposure to safe-spaces', not 'safe exposure'. 'safe spaces', to my understanding, refers to a area/location/space where people who have certain common beliefs (or experiences?) gather to be (temporarily) away from those who might have negative views of those ideas or of people who have had those experiences or something else like that. I think part of it might be like, defending one's viewpoint against the same criticisms (by different people) repeatedly can be tiring and stressful, when one is trying to discuss things related to that viewpoint, not the viewpoint itself. So the 'safe-spaces' are a place where a certain group can discuss things relevant to that group without being accused or insulted for it? Something like that. I suspect that http://existentialcomics.com/comic/93 is a reasonable representation of some form of the idea?
I suspect that you arent really expressing confusion but are making a point, but I figured that I would give my incomplete understanding of the terms in question, in case I am wrong about that.
More specifically, the theory is that, a normal man has a male mind inside a male body. A normal woman has a female mind inside a female body. But, somebody like Bruce Jenner, has a female mind inside a male body. The other cases are a male mind inside a female body, and a neutral mind inside a male or female body (aka, agender).
This has huge implications. It means that your mind and body are two separate entities, biologically, and not a single entity. They work together most of the times, but at times, your body will fight your mind, as drug addicts will tell you. The mind wants to be clean, but the body craves the effects of the drugs, the body fights the mind, and eventually, the mind lose, and the body compels you to take the drug.
This also implies that gender is not a social construct, but rather gender is biological. If your mind was born female into a male body, no matter what society teaches you, you will always know that you're female. Deep in yourself, you'll always identified as female, even though your body is male.
As for safe spaces, it's to address the reality that minority voices tend to go silent when they don't feel safe. Some people in colleges and in political media have a twisted view of this concept, and it's got a lot of people angry.
oooh kay.
