Setting the Record Straight: North Carolina Law Protects Everyone's Bodily Privacy
Well the cards have been called on the table and the sleeves are rolled up. North Carolina is demanding the Fed clarify how a man who thinks he is a woman has dominant rights to women and girls' expectation of intimate privacy behind doors marked "women" above them. The Fed is demanding North Carolina accept their ad lib to the 1964 Civil Rights Act as "irrefutable interpretation". Yet nowhere in the 1964 Act does it discuss men who are experiencing delusions.
The Fed will ask the Court to put in place a stay that allows men to use the women's intimate hygiene retreats. North Carolina will counter that it's far more compelling to put in place a stay on the Fed's demand instead, since women's expectation of intimate segregated privacy behind a door marked "women" is far more compelling a safety and rights issue than a tiny group of men who are delusional. The power of historical prevalence and protection of women and girls will and should outweigh the extremely new notion that "men are women".
Anything less would be a perversion of justice and a suppression of the civil rights of women and girls.
Public restrooms are places where women and girls may shower, change their clothes, handle personal grooming issues, and take care of many other private matters unique to females. Many people are uncomfortable merely discussing these topics, so imagine the discomfort when women have to do such activities with males present. Women and girls shouldn’t be forced to conduct these private activities in a confined space with male strangers present....
Consider especially that girls and women who have been sexually abused will suffer the additional trauma of being compelled to engage in their most intimate activities in the immediate company of male strangers. No one is saying that every man who struggles with sexual identity issues is a predator. No one. But the mere presence of men in what should be a private, safe space like a bathroom can trigger serious psychological and emotional trauma for women and girls who have been sexually abused. That is simply unacceptable.
