What's confusing is that these people always seem to think that if a man enters a woman's bathroom that some perverted shit is gonna happen. Wouldn't that same logic extend to lesbians? Bisexuals would need their own bathrooms. Seems like the problem is rapists, not people trying to pee.
There was a gay bathroom panic in the 90s
Which was partially the result of demonizing the result of sodomy laws and society villianizing gay people which resulted in a culture of hooking up in public bathrooms where there was some kind of privacy. That was used along with the myth that gay men are also pedos to create the gay bathroom panic.
Which was then used as the reason to drastically reduce the number of public Dept of transportation restrooms.
Always about the gd money
The whole idea of gendered bathrooms in the first place is a bit insulting to men I feel like. The implication is that men are either too uncontrollable that they can’t be trusted around women in a room or that men are so trashy and disgusting that they need to be segregated so as to not dirty up the women’s restroom. Should just be gender neutral bathrooms all over.
Have you seen a womans bathroom after heavy use like in a bar? Have you seen the lines? Lets keep bathrooms segregated...
A bunch of bars do that here in Montreal and I never once saw an issue.
Calling yourself a trans is a tried and true legal defence against being prosecuted for rape.
No, it’s not.
I wanted to let you know that your username got me good. I read the first comment and was like that has to be a troll, read your name instead of his and was like, yeah that's a troll. Then right when I about closed the comment I saw what I saw "No, it's not". And to my surprise, Satan's maggoty cum fart is the voice of reason haha.
Are you fucking stupid? In what world is that a defense for rape?
Pretty sure they’re being sarcastic
Nope, they're really that brainwashed.
Sad if true 😞
Happens all the time in Britain.
So you can provide the proof for your claims, right?
Just some recent events of people covering underage rape for transes https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11512735/Father-girl-raped-trans-friendly-toilet-slams-grand-jury-not-finding-school-responsible.html It took a school change and another rape to get the fucker into the jail.
How about some other source that's not daily mail with "woke" as the very first word?
That was one alleged event over eight months ago.
You really, really missed adding the /s to that one, friend.
How does that go?
Sounds like made up bullshit.
