You stand in the women’s room at school or work with no underwear or pants on while you wash & dry your clothes? How long does that take? How many people have you traumatized by that nasty sight?!

Still waiting on the answer to this one....

No answer yet. Guess it was another BS scenario to manufacture fear & hate.

You've really never seen a girl wrap a sweater around her waist and try to clean herself up at the sink? I'm guessing you've had a very privileged upbringing.

I've even purchased sanitary products for girls and passed them under the door when they didn't bring coins with them, to help them discreetly deal with a problem that they didn't expect to have.

You're really coming across as pretty awful, to be honest. Why are you so obsessed with this?

Honestly, no. I’ve seen (and worn) a sweater over blood-stained pants, but I’ve honestly never seen a sweater over a bare-ass in a school bathroom.

Just calling out the lame excuses for why PPs think that girls are so delicate. They aren’t FYI.

DP but lots of things are mental illnesses and I don’t hate people with those illnesses so get over yourself with your desperate need to be hated.

Calling it a mental illness is hateful.

I don’t need you to hate me. Just want you to stop Harrington trans people and making up lame excuses for why you don’t want to be inclusive.

^ stop hating

Personally, I believe trans people are mentally ill, and that the treatment for it isn’t to cut off their penis and let them use other pronouns, but in general I don’t have an issue with sharing a female bathroom with trans women. I don’t, however, want to share bathrooms with men.

Can anyone actually explain what the issue is with single sex bathrooms? I mean, this thread has been about justifying why we should leave things as they are, but where is the justification for changing things?

Isn’t the point of trans people that they WANT to live life as the other gender? Why can’t they just use those bathrooms?

I really don’t get it.

Personally I think you are mentally ill: hysteria.

PP here and I'm not hysterical at all. I'm trying to have a rational discussion. Can you answer my questions?

If you are sincerely interested, this was answered earlier.

Hmm sorry, I guess I missed it. All I remembered seeing was some suggestion of a vague threat that trans kids' parents might sue the school district, which I thought could not possibly be serious.

Care to summarize it again for those of us who missed it?

Someone asked about why can’t trans people just use the single gender bathrooms and someone posted an article with an explanation. I can’t remember which page. Maybe 1/2 back? Feel free to go back. If you were sincere.

Not going to be an option if MCPS converts all the bathrooms into co-ed restrooms.

If they keep the non-unisex bathrooms, then I'm fine with it.

Plenty of people are completely indifferent to your trans-ness. I don’t hate you. Now join the community of conflicting interests like everyone else and be a darn human being with a modicum of empathy that school-aged girls don’t want to be in unisex bathrooms for plenty of reasonable, non-hateful reasons.

Um, okay, I guess my psychiatrist hates me because she diagnosed me with depression? No, wait, that doesn’t make any sense....

Uhh, no. But feel free to ask her why, in 2019, it’s hateful to consider “gender dysphoria” a mental illness.

Agree.

My 6 yo came home with a pink unicorn Phoebe comic strip book once from the library. 5 pages in the unicorn is cursing, the Phoebe girl is name-calling her mother her "archrival popular girl" in school, and hating the world. For the first couple minutes I substituted words, but by minute 4 this book was trash and I told my daughter so.

When I asked the school library why they have this trash in the library and showed the pages with trash talk on them, they didn't say. But 30 minutes later I got an email stating, that the books were donated by the "fully-transitioned" author (i.e. male who had a sex change) who writes about "an angry girl not fitting in in school and her imaginary unicorn."

WTF MCPS. ANd yeah, if you go around with a pisspoor attitude automatically hating everyone else, there is not many places you will fit in with.

When Aunt Larla is visiting, middle school girls always come out of the bathroom stalls unzipped to wash their hands first and then tuckin/zip up. Keeps your clothes clean.

My K daughter found out it was possible to have an operation and change into a boy. She literally said, "Cool! You an change yourself into a boy!?!"
I told her that is very very rare and to forget about it.

Good luck trying to make sense of nonsense with a bunch of girl-hating SJWs.

Actually that's a misconception.

There's literally, scientifically, no operation or set of operations today that can change a girl into a boy.

And the proof is that there are 50 ways to demonstrate that the girl is still a girl -- with boy characteristics.

Oh, Refinery29! Lol. Get a damn dictionary and look up the word hate. It does not mean what you use it to mean. I think you legit hate the English language and are bent on destroying it.

As I understand it, transgender individuals are currently able to use the single-gender school bathroom of their preferred gender. Whether you agree with that decision or not, it's not the issue here.

I don't think anybody has argued against having single-occupant gender-neutral bathrooms. I think points have been raised about cost, and about possible safety issues if someone is trapped inside. However, (although it's possible I missed it in over 20 pages of discussion), I can't remember anybody objecting to the principle of having gender-neutral bathrooms made available to those who wish to use them, in addition to a full set of single-sex group bathrooms.

The main source of contention seems to be the concern over the possibility (likely or not) of gender-neutral group bathrooms, especially if there were a reduction of single-sex options. In these cases, there are concerns over problems arising from students of opposite sexes using the same bathroom. This argument addresses all the non-transgender students. The transgender students are already sharing the bathrooms of students.

And yet here we are, 24 pages of name-calling in, on an issue that everybody apparently agrees on.

Would you call homosexuality a mental illness? You would if you’re hateful.

Not sure if Daily Caller covered it though.
