We need a few very masculine looking jacked FtM candidates to put together a campaign to throw this right back in Texas’s face saying “Texas wants me in a woman’s bathroom” and play on all the stupid fundie fears of “men in a woman’s bathroom”
(Apologies if I didn’t phrase things correctly, I think you get the intent)
I agree, but what will happen is that every time a trans guy goes into a woman's bathroom in Texas, someone will verbally abuse them and possibly assault them, the police will come and arrest them, they'll be detained for a while, then released, and the trans men will have no recourse because of police officers' qualified immunity.
That will potentially happen any time a trans man uses the bathroom: abuse, assault, arrest, release, no recourse.
