Idaho Republicans pass bill making it a felony for transgender people to use public bathrooms - Lemmy.World

>The legislation takes aim directly at trans individuals using the restroom or locker rooms, threatening those who “knowingly” and “willfully” enter facilities designated for the “opposite biological sex” with prison time. A first offense would count as a misdemeanor punishable by up to a year in jail. Those caught using the bathroom in repeated offenses, however, could be convicted as felons and face up to five years in prison. It’d be interesting to see how this aligns with the Full Faith and Credit clause for someone who updates their birth certificate from another state that allows for that.

Now what is going to happen when a post-op trans man, who fully looks like a man, complies with this law by going into a women’s bathroom?
He will be arrested, and the news will report that a “trans-identified biological male” was in the women’s restroom. Fascists don’t give a fuck about internal consistency.
