I'd love for a bearded trans man to walk in there, look her dead in the eye and tell her not to worry, he has a vagina.
The law binds but does not protect us.
This is messed up. Do they not want trans people to use any bathrooms?
They'd really just prefer it if we didn't exist
Hot take I know, but that’s a bit fucked
Correct, the goal is to eliminate trans people from public life.
They literally want trans genocide.
This is messed up. Do they not want trans people
No, no they do not.
Republicans will use anything to generate outrage and distract from the constant war they wage on the working class
The biggest winners of this US elections are the corporations
we'll see. Media companies, gas companies and private prisons for sure win here, other corporations may suffer if they enact most of these policies:
Invading cities with the US military will destroy real estate markets. My guess is this is a bluff.
Rounding up immigrants (lets not pretend they'll be checking documents) will destroy agricultural corps and one of the US' largest exports
Tariffs will drastically damage consumer spending and costs for electronics (which will indirectly hike data center costs).
Tax cuts will radically increase inflation again.
If there are stalls with doors in the bathroom, then mind your own damn business if someone is in there. If there aren't, then it's an issue with the facility that should be fixed so anyone using them has privacy. Why are Republicans so concerned about what people do on the toilet or in the bedroom?
"Women may get attacked by trans people" says the party who by far has the larger list of offenders. Clean your own house.
You know what, aren't American stalls notorious for giant gaps in them? Maybe if they fixed that and had better stalls things like this may smooth over better. Unless that stereotype of American bathrooms is outdated or not actually the norm
These people are obsessed with people's genitals. Just go to the fucking bathroom. Must you go out of your way to make even taking a shit in public more uncomfortable than it needs to be?
Shut the fuck up and do your fucking job.
Insist on big dick and small dick bathrooms for guys. Really lean into it.
Many public restrooms in Iceland are unisex. These apes wouldn't last one road trip.
I'm still trying to figure out what these people [Republicans] are doing in the bathroom. I probably don't want to know. All can say is, when I'm trying to pee in a public restroom, I don't really give a shit who's in the stall next to me. I don't care what their gender is. I don't care what their birth gender was. I'm just trying to do my business and get on with my day.
I don't care who is with me in the bathroom. I'm not there to make friends. I wouldn't care if either Nancy Mace or Donald Trump was in the stall next to me.
Just don't talk to me unless it's an emergency, that's all I ask.
So funny what issues the conservative fossil fuel media comes up with to avoid any climate actions. People discussing genitals before extinction definitely show how Darwinism was right. Humanity will die of stupidity.
The never ending tradition of conservatives always looking for someone to hate.
If bathrooms were properly designed instead of having half walls that don't even meet, I doubt people would care nearly as much.
They'd find a reason to care because this is about maintaining patriarchy and queerphobia.
if I owned the establishment
removes sign entirely
BATHROOM
"There, y'all figure it out."
"This sign is bullshit. There's no baths in that room! Just a bunch of sinks and toilets!"
ever notice trans men don't have this problem?
We absolutely do, even if you don’t hear about it as often.
Of course, Men are expected to deal with their own issues so being this fragile isn't going to be plastered all over the media.
In my experience it’s the men who are the most fragile.
Yes, but we're not allowed to talk about it
I like showing people who claim women don't want to change in locker rooms with trans women because it makes them so uncomfortable and that locker rooms should only be for "real" women photos of the most manly-looking, muscle-bound AFAB men I can find and ask them to tell me if they think women would be comfortable changing in front of those men.
I have yet to get a yes.
The answer to "where do they expect trans people to go" is "nowhere. Hide or die."
Just unisex the thing. They get a lesson in tolerance and everyone gets equal treatment.
If trans-men wouldn't endanger themselves by doing this, I would encourage them to chill in women toilets.
But they shouldn't put themselves in harm's way just to prove a point.
We should just treat them right and protect them from this nonsense.
Democrats should hire a staffer to stand outside of the women bathroom at the capital and have them accuse every GOP women of being a man before they go to the bathroom.
They want to play these games? Let's show them what their crazy looks like
Need a big scary FTM trans man with a beard to loiter in the women's washroom because they have a vagina downstairs.
It's all about the "biology" right??
I find it incredible that global warming is skyrocketing, debt is skyrocketing, we have all sorts of existential political and health issues and the thing people worry about is...
Trans people in bathrooms.
Like, what the heck?
Even if I was anti-trans (and I am not), why would I lose so much sleep over that? What's gonna happen, I see what looks like the opposite sex in the bathroom and my head explodes?
Even racial segregation made slightly more sense because actual societal segregation was the existing state, precedent, and public consensus (as horrible as it was) but... trans people are already mixed into the public?
If you're not running a positronic neural network then you're a biological woman
Last night I was thinking about the Sarah McBride situation and it got me thinking.
"I wonder if the first black person in congress was told he had to use the Colored Room?"
She just needs to pee!
Have you watched Hidden Figures? There's a point in the movie where having different "colored" restrooms (at NASA in the 1960s) comes into play and... well, the resolution is pretty satisfying.
I will continue to ask these morons if they’ve ever heard of homosexuality. There have been people attracted to other people they see in the bathroom since people started peeing together. Gender does not define sexuality, and neither gender nor sexuality define pedophilia.
I say we push them harder, hard enough that they mandate single person unisex bathrooms, with the fancy auto room washing function they have in Japan. Then I can finally crap in peace.
I mean if she wants us to break her legs, who are we really to deny her?
yknow its funny, because if you really wanted to, you could argue that the very pretense of being trans is a biological factor, since there must be something beyond what is just "social norms and rules" determing gender. Such that trans people are technically, biological women.
Just not physically. So the correct way to write this would actually be "women determined to be such as by the definition of the classical physical definition, plus the correspondingly accurate neurotypical construction that tends to align with the concept of a woman more broadly"
just rolls right off of the tongue.
Until we figure out humanoid robots all people are biological and trans women are women, so....
