If you had transition surgery and therefor you couldn't make use of a urinal, could you make the argument that the bathrooms are not fair and equal for you and therefor unconstitutional?

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??

Shows who paid attention during school. You can have XY chromosomes and be born with a vagina, no genitalia, or both. You can have XX chromosomes and be born with a penis, no genitalia, or both. So biological women doesn't mean anything in the context they are using it.

With actually private toilets. Let everyone defecate in peace. We can share the sinks if we must.

If bathrooms were properly designed instead of having half walls that don't even meet, I doubt people would care nearly as much.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 35 points 7 hours ago

They'd find a reason to care because this is about maintaining patriarchy and queerphobia.

I was in a bathroom the other day with a messed up toilet paper dispenser. I didn't notice until a woman sat in the stall next to me and I turned my head to just see full cleavage perfectly centered through this massive like 5x5 inch gap. Most uncomfortable pee of my life.

Worth noting, this was a massive bathroom with like 30 stalls and 3 people currently in it and she chose to sit right next to me :(. It ain't just urinals, guys.

I love the way Alamo Drafthouse in Texas did this. Each stall is a fully walled environment and there's a long sinkway for everyone. No one gives a shit that it's male and female together.

There is or was a bar and restaurant in Pensacola FL that tricked people into going into the wrong restroom if you weren't paying attention and/or drunk. It was funny and there was no panic or outrage.

[–] BleatingZombie@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

I've seen restaurants do the same thing. Nobody looks at anyone twice. It's perfect

She wants to diddle kids and this is her path to doing so

Menopause is going to be her karma.

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.

if I owned the establishment

removes sign entirely

BATHROOM

"There, y'all figure it out."

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 27 points 10 hours ago (8 children)

"This sign is bullshit. There's no baths in that room! Just a bunch of sinks and toilets!"

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.

[–] dejected_warp_core@lemmy.world 3 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

We should be prepared for a fight on that front. The current uproar is about trans women. Put a trans man in power (anywhere) and the shit is really going to hit the fan. The rhetoric will shift from pseudo-sexualized bathroom nonsense to "how dare you disrupt our patriarchy."

[–] Schadrach@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 6 hours ago

Transphobia both currently and for basically the last 50 years at least has always been framed and rooted in the idea of protecting women from predatory "men". Trans men have been a footnote, at most and I doubt one becoming prominent will have the impact you expect.
