Don't expect any logic from regressives. What they want is not for trans people to use a specific bathroom. They want all trans people dead.

having talked to some, they seem to want trans people detransitioned. Which is somehow more disgusting.
So that's slightly better than wanting them dead I guess
They dont care what bathroom a person uses. It's not about the restroom ... it's about legal harassment.
Also ... what the fuck are people doing to get gender checked and arrested? There is no law about obeying the gender sign (at least not in my state or any state I have been in). Is walking into the wrong bathroom a crime or something?
The bar owner harassed them personally. They charged them with trespassing and public intoxication, despite the fact they consumed no alcohol and were not breathalyzed.
Fuck these corrupt police, and fuck that bar owner.
Hopefully when MAGA falls out of fashion in 3.5 years there is still enough time for lawsuits and punishment.
good luck with that one.
It has increasing been made a crime in various states to various degrees. See the woman who was arrested in the Florida statehouse and the college bathroom ban in Ohio.
Dystopian. That's fucked.
Republican laws working as Republicans intend.
Cruelty and oppression was always the point.
We all knew this would happen.
I’m pretty sure that recent UK Supreme Court case ended up making it illegal for trans men to use any public restroom. My understanding is that it forces trans women to use the men’s but has a carve out saying that trans men can’t use the women’s.
Can you provide a source? I'm curious to read more.
The whole situation is a dehumanizing mess.
People forget trans men exist. We’re invisible. Fuck that judge, we know what pronoun the source is replacing.
Once again, the point is to harass trans people out of public life altogether.
This isn’t about logic or fear, it’s hate and domineering. They’re nazis. No excuses.
Yeah. This kinda stuff might help sway some people but for the fascists drafting these bills, this is not a contradiction. The bathroom they want trans people to use is none. They want trans people to not exist.
I think bathrooms are such a common issue with bigotry because shitting is a vulnerable state where in nature makes us vulnerable to tooth and claw type predators. Therefore it's a psychological shortcut to appeal to danger and panic.
Forgive me for making an evolutionary psych argument, but I feel comfortable that I'm not overreaching.
I heard it's why dogs often stare at you while they poop. They're like "You got my back, right?"
So do cats stare me when im pooping
This is dumb as f.
Just make all male bathrooms gender neutral. Bam crisis averted.
It's not dumb. It's exactly what they want: to remove trans people from public spaces entirely.
I would consider arbitrary rules that are intentionally impossible to follow based on hate is very very dumb.
i once took a shit in a unisex bathroom in a park in portland…
oddly enough, it was exactly like taking a shit in any other bathroom…
Changing only men's bathrooms is just asking for backlash. Just make every toilet an individual unisex half bathroom with floor to ceiling walls and doors. A toilet, a sink, and a mirror. No more silent mode shits, no more pee shyness. If raising the national minimum wage only made products go up by a few cents some bathroom construction loans will barely do the same. I'll pay an extra 10 cents for my burrito... Oh that's right they already have individual bathrooms. Airports, malls, amusement parks, stadiums, music venues? ¯\(ツ)/¯ get gud
At work they put in a bunch of these during a renovation a few years ago. Only problem is we hit hard times and didn't renovate more bathrooms so these are far away. I make the trek over to them when I need to poop though. So much nicer than the men's room.
I know this is the least bad part of the story, but it stuck out anyway:
After a lengthy drive to the bar, Strobel said he stepped inside to use the men’s room. However, there were no stalls—only urinals, rendering it inaccessible to him as a trans man.
Precisely where are men supposed to shit in this establishment?
Real men dont wipe their booty 🕳️, so they just #2 in the garbage can
On the manager's desk would be ideal if you can get away with it
That's what sinks are for
They really need to get bathrooms out of their gross heads.
They're obsessed with trans women.
That trans men also exist breaks them.
This would never have happened had a trans woman entered the men's.
