Basically should Trans people be allowed to use bathrooms/locker rooms with the gender they identify with vs. biological gender. I am voting "NO" but it will likely pass in my Leftists state. What is sad is that even if you are a convicted sex offender you will be allowed to use the bathroom and or locker room you identify with. WTF?!?!?
This is pure craziness to me from the Leftists. Disney movies are offensive to a 5-year old girl but seeing a biological male in the bathrooms and or locker room is not?
Am I going crazy here?
Thoughts?
What ignorant, bigoted, authoritarian rightists fail to understand is that transgender Americans are entitled to equal protection of the law – that no citizen can be disadvantaged through force of law solely because of who he is, such as being transgender.
Because most conservatives are frightened by change, diversity, and dissent, they incorrectly perceive diversity and expressions of individual liberty as a ‘threat,’ and seek to disadvantage those whom they perceive as a ‘threat’ through force of law to compel conformity: if transgender Americans are not allowed to use a restroom consistent with their identified gender, then they’ll stop being transgender – so goes conservative illogic.
The Constitution recognizes the right to self-determination, the right to individual liberty, and the right to make decisions concerning the conduct of one’s life absent unwarranted government interference – the proposed measure is perfectly appropriate and comports with those Constitutional principles.
This measure is indeed necessary and proper given the ignorance, fear, bigotry, and hate common to most on the right, and conservatives’ desire to disadvantage transgender Americans, or anyone else who dares to express himself as an individual.
