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.

Trans people are the 2025 jews.

The original Nazis came for the trans folks before the Jews.

It's fucking disgusting how similar it is and how few people see it

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 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?

Plenty of trans guys have stand-to-pee devices.

Thanks, much better than a meme.

[–] henfredemars@infosec.pub 17 points 1 week ago

They really need to get bathrooms out of their gross heads.

[–] Spacehooks@reddthat.com 59 points 1 week ago (8 children)

This is dumb as f.

Just make all male bathrooms gender neutral. Bam crisis averted.

[–] ADTJ@feddit.uk 6 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Yeah that works, but often male toilets currently only have one stall. Would need to shift that balance for this to be an effective strategy.

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.

It’s like their weird concept of immigrants that are simultaneously lazy non-contributors and taking our jerbs.
