As long as everyone, boys, girls, or transkids, can use that room.

Yes, hence, I said unisex.

I have no problem with that. But honestly - is that really going to help the transkids, if everyone are using those unisex rooms?

Why wouldn't it? I thought their issue was that they don't feel comfortable going to a bathroom that is designated to a specific gender? And honestly, I think most kids would continue to go to the regular restrooms anyway.

BS. How us this fair to young menstruating girls already embarrassed of their changing bodies? How is exposing them to boys the right thing to do? There are thousands more girls than trans kids but you don't care about trampling on the girl's rights! Women, wake up!!!!

How would this expose girls to boys? Because they'd be using the same sink?

Are you really that stupid? Maybe you are a man so I'll break it down for you
I come from a long line of heavy bleeders. We go through multiple pads tampons in just one day. Sometimes we can just sit on a toilet while clots and blood gushes out. We are genetically built this way. Many times we bleed through our clothes and need a safe private sink to pull down our pants and try to clean up the blood so it is not so obvious when we walk out of the bathroom.

Where are my daighters rights as a new woman to be able to learn to care for herself? Where are my daughter's rights to do the same at her school in a safe environment? How is she going to do this surrounded by boys? She won't. She will be anxious scared and mortified. But to all of you, the girls rights don't matter. We have to spend millions and pander to a handful of trans kids who are welcome to use our bathroom any time they need it.

+1.

I hope this is a wake-up call to women and to parents of girls.

Omg. Who are you hysterical cows?!

Hopefully your daughters don’t procreate. No need to keep this cesspool of genetic defects.

1) calling women "cow

2) calling women "hysertical"

3) shaming our daughters, their ability to procreate and their Gene's

All because we have an opinion on our rights and our bodies! As women! The true hatred on this thread coming out for all to see! How dare us women open our mouth and have an opinion!

Finally an honest sexist misonginst who openly showcases his/her/their (pick your pronoun) hatred of women! Cause that is what is going on here. Women are being shut down. And if you don't comply with the trans liberal agenda you get called names and your daughter too.

Your reaction over this issue tells us everything we need to know about you.

Hysterical
Cow

GFY and your unwarranted drama.

DP

Wow. This PP is so woke, she refers to women who disagree with him/her as ‘hysterical cows’. Classy.

Yup,

You can't make this up.

Guess diva cups are no longer an option.

Isn’t prohibiting choice of menstrual protection some sort of sexual discrimination or harassment?

+1 million. I cannot believe people are even thinking about this idea. How many times did I (and my daughter, I'm sure) ask a fellow woman in the common restroom area for a pad or tampon? Ask the woman in the stall next store for extra toilet paper? Stand in front of the sink trying to get blood out of pants so we could return to class? This happens all. the. time. Especially in middle and high school. Single stalls, even if the door is floor to ceiling, is not enough. I cannot believe there is even one woman who supports this idea.

She can still go to one of the many single sex bathrooms that will still exist in the school.

Also, rinsing blood out in the sink is gross. I'd recommend that be done in the nurse's office where she can ask for a Lysol wipe to clean it up afterwards.

So the girl should go to the nurse office to use the bathroom but they trans kid can't. Got it! Girls and women, you are second class citizens. Your rights matter less than a small minority. The liberal left needs you to fall in line and forgo your rights to bathroom safety and privacy for the greater good of a handful of people.

How is it that I can respect the Trans right to use our bathroom if they need to for privacy and safety but their community can't respect the girl's right to do the same and let us have bathrooms designated by sex not gender? Why? I support their decisions, why can't they support my cisgender daughter and other cisgender girls in same?

So the trans girl has to go to the nurse's office (or the boys' bathroom) but the cis girl can't go to the nurse's office...

Also, "it doesn't affect a lot of people" is an inadequate argument. Most people don't use wheelchairs. Facilities should still be accessible to people who do use wheelchairs.

So thousands of girls should give up there rights for a few? Let's be clear here. Just say it! Go ahead! Women and girls are second class citizens and should shut the hell up.about our needs! Just say it!!!!! Say what you really mean! Because if women don't start standing up for themselves and fast, we are on a ippery slope! Your hatred and disgust of women is palpable. And it is everywhere on this thread.

Agree completely

+2.

Ideological zealots couldn't care less about the vast majority of girls and women.

It's all about virtue signalling and the latest SJW crusade.

I could really care less if you and your daughters are going to have a meltdown over this.

Grow the F up. This is only an issue if you make it an issue. Go be outraged over something else.

You go F yourself you misogynistic jerk. I will continue to be outraged on behalf of my daughter and girls everywhere. I will not be silenced by your hate. If women don't start standing up for themselves, we are doing the next generation of girls an extreme disservice. I will stand for young girls, their rights to privacy and safety and won't shut down by some screwed up zealot.

Why don't you apply that outrage to something important? Why are you working so hard to make this into an issue? What are your underlying motives?

Because the safety and privacy of girls at their schools IS important. Girls are not second class citizens and they have rights. I can think if no other issue more important for women today than protecting and expanding those rights which are under attack from both liberal SJW and conservatives on a daily basis. This is example A. How are you so obtuse that you can not see what is clearly happening here? Women are under attack.

only by the pro-life nutters.

Funny.

My body my choice means I don't want to share bathroom with people with penises and biologically actually male.

1. You don't have to wash them every time.
2. A single-user all-gender bathroom, like the kind they are talking about adding, would have the additional benefit of being useful to Diva Cup users who do want to wash them. A perfect example of how universal design helps everyone.

Ciswoman here with cisdaughters, and all of us have the heavy flow you describe. Dude, none of us TAKE OUR BLOODY UNDERPANTS TO THE SINK AND WASH THEM OUT. That is deeply unhygienic. Bring a spare pair if you need to, but if it's that bad, you should absolutely go to the nurses' office just like you would for any other blood flow situation because they are equipped to deal with them hygienically.

Jesus christ lady.

Dear cislady, please use language correctly, don't just make things up and expect everyone to care about your cisfeelings.

Bathrooms for boys are for boys.

Bathrooms for girls are for girls.

Unisex bathrooms are free for all.

The End.

No, that's not want it means. Any more than "my body, my choice" means "I don't want to have pizza for dinner tonight" or "I don't want to walk to the park, I'd rather drive."

They are not getting rid of all single-gender bathrooms. THEY ARE LOOKING INTO THE COSTS AND LOGISTICS OF ADDING SOME ALL-GENDER BATHROOMS. If you think that's an intolerable threat to girls and women, I don't know what to say.

“This means no girls’ rooms and no boys’ rooms — just restrooms,” she said.

ONE parent said that, not the administration. Administration said they would look at the cost and feasibility of adding some unisex bathrooms.

If you don't know the difference between a random parent and official statements from MCPS, I don't even know what to do with that.

My body my choice means I CHOOSE what to do with my body, and my DD for hers -- not some self-appointed SJW sexuality committee.

Well, if you're going to quote something, quote it right, "Montgomery County Public Schools, Maryland’s largest school system, plans to look into the cost of of putting more “all-gender” bathrooms in schools." Zuckerman said he would soon be able to provide more information about the potential cost and logistics of adding more all-gender bathrooms to schools,
