    There’s no previous cases of assault or harassment of cis people by trans people for using the bathroom. Their fears are not valid. It’s as valid as a student suing because they have a phobia of the color grey and can’t be forced to use a bathroom that has any grey in it.

      The stupidest part to me is that cis women could also potentially assault other cis women in public restrooms but these bigots haven’t even considered that possibility.

      Also, if you are a cis man and are just desperate to sexually assault a woman in a public restroom, I would think that a janitor’s uniform and a mop would be enough.

      • Or even the concept that trans men exist. They are demanding to share restrooms with men, on the grounds that otherwise they may have to share restrooms with people they think are men.

          Absolutely. And when I see one of these white knights (and it’s almost always a man) talk about how women have to be protected from men in public bathrooms and locker rooms and therefore people should only be forced to use the room corresponding to their biological sex, I show a picture of a man like this and ask them if they think the women they are desperate to protect would feel comfortable changing around him, despite his two X chromosomes.

        And if you can’t trust the Mormon government of Utah when it comes to queer people… really, can you trust anyone?

          Not sure what the Utah government has to do with news clippings but ok, you do you

            It’s almost like the clippings alone don’t tell the full story.

            But come on- would Mormon leaders ever be deceptive?

              Mormon leaders have nothing to do with the document. That’s why I’m baffled by your comment. It’s like you didn’t look at the document.

                I did, in fact, look at the highly selective and edited document with no really good way to confirm every story. Or even more than one or two.

                You, on the other hand, either didn’t notice the URL, don’t know who runs Utah, are incredibly naive or just dishonest.

                The first article is from the Christian Broadcasting Network and many of the others are from Fox News.

                  And?

                  The statement is there has never been a case and that’s false.

                  Anytime someone says there has never been… it’s almost always a false statement.

                    Nice try. You posted a bunch of of right wing sources with a really bigoted agenda.

                    But that’s nothing compared to the trans agenda, am I right?
