Who is going to win this election in November?

[BillJ]

Since we can show websites with slanted views, I will put down the opposite view:

Anything from people charges with actually enforcing these laws? Like the article I linked. Conservatives seem to be the ones that live in a fantasy land where what is actually going on doesn't have the same weight as their fears and prejudices.

 

[BillJ]

How can gender be fluid? If one is born male or female that is a historical fact even if one does not identify as such mentally in later life. There are black people who hate the darkness/melanin content of their skin should they be encouraged to do so? What is the difference? Is ethnicity/race fluid as well?

Sorry, typing a bit quickly. I should've written "gender identity". How one sees themselves.

Ok I get you now, thanks

I remember reading (a bit before my time), about the need for separate bathrooms and water fountains for people of color. The reasoning being that it would make white people "uncomfortable".

People need to grow up. Safety and comfort are an illusion in human life. I could get hit by a bus tomorrow, and that thought makes me "uncomfortable" (and I'm sure others). But the idea of banning them is beyond silly.

African-American is race, a man can identify as a woman, but biologically they are still technically a man.

Yet I posted links earlier of incidents that describe just what I said, so it's not my fantasy.

To be honest in this day and age, I am feeling more and more I don't want to share nothing with white folks. Its making me racially paranoid of all of them.

Gender fluid is a load of crap.

When it comes to sex, researchers have learned that biology can be more complicated than just ‘boy’ or ‘girl.’ For instance, some people carry two X chromosomes mixed with a fragment of a Y chromosome. These people develop into what look to be males. That happens even though the presence of two X chromosomes means that they are female, at least biologically.

It gets even more complicated when gender identity enters the picture. For more than 99 percent of the world’s population, gender identity and biological sex will agree. Such a person is called cisgender. (The Latin prefix cis- means “on the same side.”) But a small share of people experiences a mismatch between sex and gender.

Well, no...

But thanks for playing.

The people who I refer to when I say behavior are the people in the 99% who use it as an excuse to go into a women's restroom.

How do you live when fear controls you so completely?

After spending hours combing through conservative blogs and family values websites dedicated to news about transgender bathroom ordinances, we were able to confirm three cases in the United States in the last 17 years in which a biological male was convicted of a crime that involved him in a women’s bathroom or locker room and dressed as a woman.

It’s unclear if any of the three identified as transgender women, but none of those cases happened in cities where it would have been legal for a transgender woman to use the women’s room anyway. And none involved sexual assault or rape.

Fear doesn't lead my life. If I was in the bathroom and a transgender woman came in, it wouldn't really bother me. However, I am trying to protect the rights of women who have men walk in on them in the bathman, because they claim to be a woman.

Also, when you have to bring out insults to somebody with an opposing view, it shows that you've lost the argument.

Explain to me why in one my links, there five cases reported.

Additionally, the man who claims to be a woman may not even do anything, but that doesn't mean that they should be in there.

If you had a daughter, would you want a man, whose biological sex is male, but "claims" to be a woman, in there with her?

I have a 23-year old daughter that I've taught to pay attention to what goes on around her (same thing I've taught my two boys). I feel sorry for someone if they thought it a good idea to stir something up with her in a restroom, male or female.

Though, I gotta admit, I didn't teach her to fear people based on what genitals they have in their underpants.

She'd have nothing to fear if a biological man was in there in the first place.

It isn't an insult, but an observation. It seems odd how restrictive we want to be in what is supposedly a free society based on personal responsibility.

Men and women have separate restrooms because there are differences between the two. That's the way it has been for nearly 100 years at least.
