Idaho Criminalizes Transgender Use of Some Bathrooms in Private Businesses

The bill passed Friday by the Idaho legislature would make it a crime punishable by up to a year in prison to use a gender-designated bathroom that does not conform to a person’s sex at birth.

#Idaho lawmakers on Friday approved #legislation to #criminalize the use of bathrooms, locker rooms or changing rooms, even in private businesses, by people whose sex at birth does not match the facilities’ sign on the door.

Senators approved 28-7 what might be the nation’s most restrictive #transgender bathroom bill Friday, after the Idaho House approved the ban last week. Gov. Brad Little, a #Republican, is expected to sign it.

The #legislation makes it a #crime for a person of one “biological sex” to “knowingly & willfully” enter bathrooms, locker rooms or changing rooms “designated for the opposite” sex. Violating the #law would be a #misdemeanor punishable by up to one year in #prison. A second offense within five years would be a #felony, carrying up to a 5-year prison sentence.

@Nonilex I presume every home or accommodation in that state will now be mandated to have two bathroooms, so no male in the residence will use the same facility as any female in the same residence.
Only female staff to clean and maintain female facilities; and only male staff to clean and maintain male facilties. Hopefully plumbers and outfitters will be available as male and female to kit out or do any essential maintenance also.

@Nonilex

So these lawmakers actually want to enforce a reality that doesn't exist *naturally* or *socially* - with the argument that *nature* and *society* would contradict factual reality.

I fear that this is the bevaviour of a species doomed to extinction by climate change, beginning to accommodate in a delirium of its last days.

@mmoledij @Nonilex Absolutely. If it were only the homophobes and transphobes and racists this removed from society generally, it would be an absolute bonus, per your last sentence. They refuse to see the evidence in biology, genetics and in many species, because they are power hungry bullies.
