Obama is the worst president in over 50 years. Worse than Jimmy Carter. And that is saying a lot.
Obama care is failing and collapsing under its its own weight.

It was to provide care for the 20- 30 million Americans who could not afford or have HC. Now there are still 20 -30 million who can not afford it.

Opening relations to a fucking communist is not a good thing.
8 years of dismal economic growth. That's trick down economics.

No growth policies that stimulated business to any great extent.

The only thing Obama did of substance is given us 20 trillion in debt and gender neutral bathrooms. That is shameful.

Aside from all the ridiculous and seemingly evidence free rhetoric of bogeymen in dresses attacking girls in bathrooms, I'm curious to know how they handle the locker room/shower situation.

Am I mistaken to assume they're saying a trans girl with a boys body would be accepted by girls in the locker room, and its just old prejudices holding that up?

So her male costars circled around her while she was naked in her bathroom and unloaded on her...

...nothing wrong with that.

I think people going into the obviously incorrect bathroom will get challenged, no matter what rules / laws are on the books. Laws can punish extreme challenges / reactions, but they can't prevent them.

I can't say whether that is a good or bad thing (I suppose there are reasonable arguments for both), but it does tend to support the "what's the point" side...

I don't think anyone is concerned about the sexual assault of children while their parents are present. The bogeyman that infects parent's minds is that the unattended child, who is naive and incredibly trusting of adults, will be taken advantage of.

I think that the entire notion of the sexual assault of children is grossly over represented in our media and our perception. I'm just saying that changing which bathroom you want the supposedly 'risky' individuals to use only changes which children you put at 'risk'. Nothing is solved.

I have to say, a public bathroom really is the last place I'd want to rape anyone.

I cleaned for years too. I disagree. In my experience women's bathrooms are in general much cleaner.

Ergo, the problem with anecdotes.

No force fields, just people who will challenge you. I.e. in almost all the world, in general, if the someone tries to enter the opposite sex's bathroom, they will be challenged. Yes, if nobody is around then nobody will challenge them.

You won't need a wig and dress under the new system. You'll only need to walk straight in, in full male clothing. No one will challenge you because they'll be under the assumption that you identify as the female gender.

So to be clear, this will increase the opportunities for people to enter the opposite sex's bathroom. That is the extra risk.

Just to clear up some general confusion I see:

You can be transgender and not change your clothing or sexual appearance.

You can be transsexual and still be cisgender. I.e. you can have sexual reassignment, or cross-dress and remain cisgender.

Hence, why I suggested one bathroom for urinals and one for stalls.

That said, I obviously frequent a better class of public bathroom than you as most of the ones I've been in weren't swimming in urine

Do the toilets everywhere else in the world have magical force fields on them that stop the opposite sex entering the wrong bathroom, or what? Have i been using the antiquated honour-system bathrooms where it's an open door that humans can pass freely through?

The reason i ask is because there seems to be an unspoken agreement in this discussion that "allowing" transgender men into female bathrooms CREATES the problem of sexual predators going into women's bathrooms.

How many sexual predators have been keeping a dress, a wig and fake breasts in the cupboard hoping and praying for the moment that they pass the law which magically opens up this previously inaccessible area? The idea that sex offenders have been walking past women's bathrooms all this time desperate and yet unable to get in, and now we're going to turn off the force fields and things will be different!

This doesn't create a new risk. Sexual predators can go into women's bathrooms right now. And you can't go in and check before your daughter uses it, so how do you know one isn't in there? What extra risk is there?

We have gendered bathrooms because men are pigs. In prison, even men are warned to be careful and watch themselves in the bathrooms. No, most of the population isn't made of people out to commit sexual assaults. However, I can appreciate women not wanting to have to wonder if the men sharing the bathroom with them are one just this time.

More practically than that, we are sexual creatures and bathroom etiquette would be complicated. Can't have that...
