Re: Should we make all bathrooms/locker rooms unisex?
the thing I enjoy most about right wing nuts is that they're the big macho types who drive big trucks, carry guns, smoke cigarettes, chew tobacco.. listen to Toby Keith talk about how 'Merica is gonna kick them mooslim's ass..
and then they get upset about which bathroom someone uses.

Now it's not! Go for it!
Seriously though, like, not the other stuff but the one thing he said. Some pervert always could just walk into he bathroom behind your daughter. Is that a thing that happens? I don't think that's a thing that happens. This whole thing is trying to prevent a completely nonexistent problem and I suspect there might just maybe sort of kind of perhaps actually an underlying prejudice driving people's opinions here. I know that sounds crazy, but maybe a little less crazy than pretending that it's to solve a problem that doesn't exist with the "think of the children" excuse.

And like I said I personally don't care if some sick fuck wants to cut off his penis and then have an open wound mascarading as a vagina for the rest of his life.
It sounds like you care.

Look you youngsters when 99.99 percent of people do one thing it's considered normal. So the 0.01 percent are by definition abnormal.
Diversity is not strength. Not everyone is special. The society as a whole should not have to bend to the desires of a few.
And like I said I personally don't care if some sick fuck wants to cut off his penis and then have an open wound mascarading as a vagina for the rest of his life. Nor do I care if Roberta is suddenly Rob.
Use the bathroom you need to / use the stall and keep your goddamned mouth shut. We don't need to codify your bulshit.
Wild ass statistics with no links to sources. Seems legit.
Good thing for society is that people who think like you are decreasing by 10% a year, so by the year 2030 you people will be pretty much insignificant.
I don't give a shit if some dude dresses up as a woman in public or private and I don't really care which fucking toilet they use. What I do care about is yet another special privilege being carved out especially since it is being carved out without any qualifications or certifications. According to the trans lobby a person can simply declare themselves trans one day and normal the next or vice versa.
http://cnsnews.com/news/article/michael-w-chapman/johns-hopkins-psychiatrist-transgender-mental-disorder-sex-change
Dr. Paul R. McHugh, the former psychiatrist-in-chief for Johns Hopkins Hospital and its current Distinguished Service Professor of Psychiatry, said that transgenderism is a “mental disorder” that merits treatment, that sex change is “biologically impossible,” and that people who promote sexual reassignment surgery are collaborating with and promoting a mental disorder.
http://www.nytimes.com/2015/06/09/upshot/the-search-for-the-best-estimate-of-the-transgender-population.html?_r=0
Another paper, published in 2011 by the Williams Institute, used survey data to attempt to count the transgender population. It estimated that 0.3 percent of the population, or 700,000 adults, identified that way.
Another was a California survey about tobacco use among lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people. Just over 3 percent identified as transgender, implying that 0.1 percent of adults in California were transgender, based on the Williams Institute’s estimate of the percentage of the total population that is L.G.B.T. (3.5 percent).
http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2015/08/16/transgender-individuals-face-high-rates--suicide-attempts/31626633/
Suicide attempts are alarmingly common among transgender individuals such as Lampe; 41% try to kill themselves at some point in their lives, compared with 4.6% of the general public. The numbers come from a study by the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention and the Williams Institute, which analyzed results from the National Transgender Discrimination Survey.

I wonder if there might be some other underlying cause for the high rate of attempted suicide among transgender people other than just being "fucked up". Hmmm...

Re: Should we make all bathrooms/locker rooms unisex?
I'm all for not hurting the sensitive feelings of Bob, or insulting the honor of Goose in this debate on where you should take a dump or a piss, but could somebody with a psychological background help me out here?
It's my understanding that the transgender people want to go into the bathroom of their sex that they feel they identify with, not with which the equipment they necessarily have. O.K., I understand that. However, here is what I'm really confused about, and it's not a sarcastic question, it's really puzzling me. If I'm a transgender and I have a penis, every time I go to the bathroom, I see a penis, matter of fact I'm pretty much grabbing it and holding it. So, why does that emotionally scar me if I see other people with the same junk as me?
Fuck, I know I'm a dumb ass in many things, but thats my cross to bare. We've made this mole hill into a mountain now, and we're wasting time in courts and schools and in general trying to come to an equitable solution, and I want to do what's right for people, but I just need to have this explained to me. If anyone can without being a smart ass, I'd really appreciate it

Unless, of course, they're hypocritical.. and aren't really as big of fans of "freedom" as they pretend to be.
But that can't be the case, right?

Again Bob, this isn't about you. You have not come close to answering this for me. You just start out by saying "I....". Who gives a fuck what you think or car. All I want to know is the scientific reasoning behind the need to do this. I need the psychology of it, so I can affirm my belief that this is important.

So, it's not so much a psychological thing that would ruin them, it's a belief that some could be physically attacked and hurt. That helps. Thanks.

ACLU state leader quits after daughters ‘frightened’ by biological males in restroom
A veil seems to have lifted from her eyes, allowing her to see:
In a statement, she said that the ACLU has become “a special interest organization that promotes not all, but certain progressive rights.”
The “hierarchy of rights” the ACLU chooses to defend or ignore, she wrote, is “based on who is funding the organization’s lobbying activities." She did not elaborate on the group's funding.
The classic definition of a neoconservative is a liberal who has been mugged by reality. Dillard Smith may be seeing the ACLU with more clarity, but her process is still just beginning:

authorities say transgender voyeur admitted to prior spying
Idaho Statesmen wrote:BREAKING: A special thank you to HTA Silva for this BN Headline!
--- An Idaho man who told police he identifies as a woman was arrested Tuesday after allegedly taking photos of a woman in a Target fitting room, officials said.
Sean Patrick Smith, 43, was allegedly dressed in women’s clothing when he entered the fitting room in the women’s section of the store in Ammon on Monday, East Idaho News reported. Smith, also known as Shauna Patricia Smith, then began taking pictures of a woman in the changing stall next to him, police said.
“The woman was begging for help as she chased the man out the door,” a witness told East Idaho News. “She kept saying she wanted those pictures deleted.”
Detectives found Smith on Tuesday and charged him with one felony count of voyeurism. He was booked into the Bonneville County Jail and was set to make a court appearance Wednesday.
Target announced in April that “transgender team members and guests” were welcome “to use the restroom or fitting room facility that corresponds with their gender identity.”

Gender Identity Policies in Schools: What Congress, the Courts, and the Trump Administration Should Do
Another disturbing question arises: “Is a biological male who displays his private parts to a woman while coming out of a women’s restroom stall a flasher or transgendered? What about the biological male whose eyes wander while in a women’s locker room?”92
Ibid., p. 12.
Many women have already been victimized by men entering women’s spaces:
In Toronto, a man posed as a transgender woman (“Jessica”) to sexually assault and criminally harass four women—including a deaf woman and a survivor of domestic violence—at two women’s shelters. Previously, he had preyed on other women and girls whose ages ranged from as young as five to as old as 53.93
Sam Pazzano, “Predator Who Claimed to Be Transgender Declared Dangerous Offender,” Toronto Sun, February 26, 2014, http://www.torontosun.com/2014/02/26/predator-who-claimed-to-be-transgender-declared-dangerous-offender (accessed March 3, 2017).
In Virginia, a man presented as a woman in a long wig and pink shirt to enter a women’s restroom at a mall to take pictures of a five-year-old girl, her mother, and another woman.94
News4 Washington, “Man Dressed as Woman Spies in Mall Bathroom Stall in Virginia, Police Say,” October 14, 2015, http://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/Man-Dressed-as-Woman-Spies-Into-Mall-Bathroom-Stall-in-Virginia-Police-Say-332934761.html (accessed March 3, 2017).
In Washington State, a man used a women’s locker room at a public swimming pool to undress in front of young girls who were changing for swim practice. When staff asked him to leave, the man claimed that “the law has changed and I have a right to be here.”95

In Toronto, two separate occurrences of voyeurism took place on campus after the University of Toronto implemented a policy of gender-neutral bathrooms. In both cases, male students were found using their cell phone cameras to film women showering. These incidents prompted the University of Toronto to revise its new policy.96

In Minnesota, a biologically male high school student who identifies as female was allowed access to the girls’ locker rooms, where the student danced “in a sexually explicit manner—‘twerking,’ ‘grinding,’ and like he was on a ‘stripper pole,’” flashed his underwear while dancing, asked about a girl’s bra size, and asked her to “trade body parts.”97

Similar incidents have taken place in the United States at several Target stores since Target changed its policy in April 2016 to allow bathroom and fitting room access in accordance with gender identity, not biological sex.
In July 2016, Sean Patrick Smith, a biological man who identifies as a woman and was wearing a wig and dress, was charged with secretly recording an 18-year-old girl changing into swimwear in a Target fitting room in Idaho.100

Re: Should we make all bathrooms/locker rooms unisex?
And what about men dressed as men, who take pictures of men/boys in a men's bathroom and expose themselves to boys in a men's bathroom/lockeroom? Or women dressed as women that do that to girls/women in a ladies bathroom/lockeroom? Does the link address those cases, or do you/they think that doesn't happen?LooseGoose wrote:Hell Yes.Another disturbing question arises: “Is a biological male who displays his private parts to a woman while coming out of a women’s restroom stall a flasher or transgendered? What about the biological male whose eyes wander while in a women’s locker room?”92
Ibid., p. 12.
Many women have already been victimized by men entering women’s spaces:
In Toronto, a man posed as a transgender woman (“Jessica”) to sexually assault and criminally harass four women—including a deaf woman and a survivor of domestic violence—at two women’s shelters. Previously, he had preyed on other women and girls whose ages ranged from as young as five to as old as 53.93

In Washington State, a man used a women’s locker room at a public swimming pool to undress in front of young girls who were changing for swim practice. When staff asked him to leave, the man claimed that “the law has changed and I have a right to be here.”95
