The IDIOTIC new North Carolina Gender law

Paul Smeenus · 04-08-2016, 06:55 PM

My first reaction, other than "OMFG are they SERIOUS??!?" is; precisely how are they planning to enforce this? I mean think about that.

Lets say you're a Trans-Male.

Are you making things more comfortable for ANYBODY by sending this person to a ladies room?

Let's not forget about the idiotic Mississippi law as well.

^ I haven't, I just see the so-called Bathroom Bill as being particularly...problematic.

What the hell.. it's like that south park episode is happening in real life.

im gonna take the conservative side on this one, it makes sense to me that if you're biologically born a man you should use the men's bathroom even if you identify as a woman. I don't get why this is an issue, i don't get why using the bathroom has to be a statement on your sexual identity or preference. for practical purposes, it's best we stick with the biological requirement rule.

Society has made it a statement on sexual identity by segregating restrooms in the first place. There's nothing practical about it, it's just an arbitrary social construct.

There's no need to use this shame tactics on me Paul just cause i don't see things like you do.

It just seems to me that's easier to comprehend using the biological method that applies to both genders of the population than to apply a method that depends solely on how an individual identifies his sexuality.

Are you going to post sentries at every facility to check their birth certificate and/or their junk?

No, that would be silly. it's difficult for me to express my views on this subject cause on one hand i don't want to deprive transgenders the right to use whtvr bathroom they want and on the other idk if the system should adjust to their sensitivity.

Though im torn about this, ultimately i would side with the transgenders because despite my preferences i don't want to impede progress.

Also cause this article helped me put things in perspective

Here's what it'll look like if trans people aren't allowed to use the right bathroom.

The solution is to have three bathrooms. Mens/Gentleman's/Bloke's bathroom/restroom/WC, Women/Ladies'/Sheila's bathroom/restroom/WC and the French restroom/salle de repos. See because men and women share bathrooms in France. So you really don't have to get involved in specifying who is using the bathroom, or who it belongs to. It could be a co-ed bathroom or uni-sex bathroom, whatever have you, but it would be called a "French" bathroom. The name "French bathroom" will be a hit. Just from the name alone it is sure to take off like other things that have "French" in the name like French Fries, French Toast, French roast coffee and French poodles.

Say if you are a woman and you feel comfortable sharing a bathroom with a bloke and the lines are too long for the Ladies' Room and you're thinking to yourself what the heck are they doing in there I gotta go

You could just hop into the "French" bathroom and do whatever you have to do there. In and out, enuff said. It's win/win.

Maybe I misunderstood what this post meant.

It means exactly what it says: segregated restrooms are an arbitrary social construct. It's not a proposal for what should or shouldn't be, it's a description of what is.
