Good! Republicans need to get over their obsession with trans children’s genitals.

I think it’s more about the discomfort for other children. I understand not wanting to use the boys bathroom but I can also see little girls being uncomfortable with it. I don’t see why we can’t give them their own safe space.

Your thought is valid.

But what I wanted to tell you is that based upon my kids, their friends, and other people's kids that I know and talk to - very VERY few of them give a single fuck about this sort of thing. Like surprisingly few.

It's refreshing, because it's truly no big deal.

I hear you, but that’s a very small sample size. One of my friends is a trans man, and even though he’s my friend and I’m the first person he came out to it still feels weird when he walks into the bathroom with me. I can imagine how someone that isn’t comfortable would feel. I don’t see any detriment to giving trans people their own space where they can be comfortable and let everyone else be comfortable too. Same goes for sports.

and even though he’s my friend and I’m the first person he came out to it still feels weird when he walks into the bathroom with me.

That’s a you problem, and it’s up to you to get over.

Why should a majority conform to a very small minority?

All that’s being asked is that people mind their business in public restrooms. See someone who looks a little different? Cool, wash your hands and leave. If a trans person is being a creep in a bathroom, kick them out the same way you would kick out anyone else being a creep. The other 99.9% of the time, just mind your own business and let people pee and wash their hands in peace.

Would you be okay with a man using the women’s bathroom if he isn’t trans?
