What's Up With The Transgender Toilets?

But what about the guy who gets the idea to dress like a woman just so he can go in the girls locker room? How about dad? Does he let his little girl go in the ladies room by herself or does he take her in the men's. room? It's a mess and is exactly why I do all I can to avoid public restrooms and never, ever let my grandchildren go in alone. I don't see any solution to this problem, I realize stores and restaurants can't possibly pay someone to stand at the restroom doors and keep watch.

@CrazyAnimaLady She doesn't "have" to use the boys toilet. I have no problem with a girl dressed like a boy using the girls bathroom. In fact my children had a friend who was a girl and dressed like a boy. So we all use the same bathroom is that what you're saying? That should be fun.

@PrarieStyle And what about the girl that gets beat up because she has to use the boy's toilet? Separate bathrooms is segregation plain and simple.

It's awful. I have no problem with people who cross dress but I feel this whole thing is giving a green light to pedophiles.

@JohnRoberts read my comment and then tell me who isn't comprehending?

@JohnRoberts That's where I'm at. I'm not about any children or adults getting bullied or beat up. I'm sure many will disagree with me but, I see transgender and gay as a mental illness and I'd never abuse or condone abuse verbally or physically.

@JohnRoberts I just didn't want to write the exact same thing again. You said others were not comprehending and I thought there was more than just one way to look at these issues. When put the way you have here of course no one wants to open a loophole to abusive behavior. We both certainly can agree on this. On a side note I just wonder if someone could describe what a transgender toilet looks like. Would it be different than any other toilet?

You say I am not comprehending? I am only pointing out the abuse issue which you agree with. It's not about being against transgendered using public bathrooms but opening a loophole for perverts and those screaming "haters" etc to those opposing the law fail to comprehend the abuse issue and will not acknowledge it or discuss a means of trying to make this work for everyone.

It will keep them safe from more discrimination though. so it has both pros and cons. They wont be attacked by transphobics if they have their own toilet.

@CaptAlbertWhisker That's a good point. But many small businesses can't afford to put in a whole new bathroom or even have the space for one.

@CaptAlbertWhisker I think they'll still be discriminated though. The attackers are going to attack no matter what.

I think this all leading to something bigger like Transhumanism and the melding together of the sexes to break down families.

@LadyDuck That is such a good point. Perhaps the old way of doing things in school like lots of supervision was a good thing. I wonder if cutbacks, overpopulation of schools has caused less or it is an actual shift in how students are treated? I don't think the problem that is being discussed is about children though but exists with the adults. @PrarieStyle I understand being worried or feeling threatened. Changes are frightening. Old ways are tossed out for new ways. Trans-humanism though even though it has a trans in the word has little or nothing to do with this movement I think?

@PrarieStyle No, I believe that in the past times there were more discipline, the students were never left alone. I remember that there was a teacher in front of the restrooms when we were in school during the break, just to check that there was nothing wrong.

I kind of agree with you Horse. I think there is a bigger picture. There really aren't very many transgenders. We used to call them "cross-dressers". I used to work with a woman who dressed like a man. I never had a problem with her nor even thought about what bathroom she used. I don't think I even cared. My children had a friend they brought home who was a girl who dressed like a boy. I did all I could to make her feel at home. She had an awful family and upbringing so I wanted her to feel safe and loved at our home. I think Transhumanism isn't too far off.
