    I swear, transphobes will claim all trans people care about are mutilating genitals while the phobes run around screaming at people demanding to know what’s in their pants, regardless of whether they’re a minor or not.

    I still use the men’s room because I am early in transition and my tits aren’t big enough yet. I’m basically waiting for the first man to see me and tell me I’m in the wrong place, then I will know I can probably use the ladies’

    The restroom narrative is fucking insane.

    I was sexually assaulted as a teenage girl, by another teenage girl in a restroom in high school.

    Sexual predators are going to be predators. They don’t care about the rules.

      For the sake of argument, let’s say there is a hypothetical trans person who wants to assault someone in a bathroom. The whole argument assumes that people who don’t respect “you can’t assault people” laws will respect “you can’t enter that room” laws. They’re already planning a much more serious crime! They’ll just ignore both laws! So dumb.

      I think American stalls are designed that way specifically to make them less private in the hopes it will keep people from boning or doing drugs in them. Just another facet of American life made worse with puritanical/punitive culture.

      We’re lucky they even have doors, half the schools I went to in conservative towns ripped them off to ‘keep kids from smoking’ in the bathrooms.

      I think they just have a fetish for watching people shit.

        I’d literally rather my kid start smoking then have some adult watch them take a shit.

        Hell, kid might start smoking to deal with poop anxiety it creates. Nicotine literally helps with constipation. Lol

    Do transphobes know of the existence of manly, burly trans men? One of those muscular, bearded dudes walks into a woman’s room because it’s their “birth assigned” bathroom and they would lose their shit

      Hey, some of us are fat Reddit neckbeards too. Not all trans men are muscle-y man hunks.

      I think I’m supposed to use the women’s restroom? Tbh, not sure if my drivers license even counts anymore. Might as well dig out the fedora and some Pepe the frog shirts, if they’re going to make me piss in the women’s, I’ll “milady” every female in sight.

    It’s solid advice to listen to what they say, because they are actually confessing what they want to do.

    “If we defind the police people will go around killing everyone they want”

    … Uh … How many people do you WANT to kill? Because my number is 0…

    And of course this is another clear example.

    “They are trying to creep on young girls”

    Uh… Why do you’re state make it legal to touch children’s genitals if you’re proving their gender and force people to undress for you to use the bathroom???

    A more personal one:

    “They are forcing their lifestyle on us!!!”

    Uh… Is it okay with you guys if I’m asexual?

    “No! That asexual means your gay and gay people are child molesters. So stop being asexual”

      Technically my number is not 0. And the police really only protect the small percentage of people in this world that deserve the guillotine. So, in a way they’re right about that one. Just not in the way they think they are.

    I think it has more to do with women requesting that men not be in the bathroom with them.
