Judge sides with 11-year-old trans girl over her right to use school toilets
A district judge in Wisconsin has sided with an 11-year-old trans girl over her use of the girls’ toilets and temporarily blocked school officials from preventing her access.
If this was the 1950s you would be saying " I don't hate black people, I just don't think anyone should be forced to be uncomfortable because of them." with regards to sharing a water fountain or a lunch counter. That's all I can think of when I read your message. Your a bigot, plain and simple
Should we make separate bathrooms for non white people too? Maybe we should have different seats in public transport too.
Username checks out
They're not proposing that seriously. It's a thought exercise to get the other user to consider how discriminatory they're being agaist people who "aren't like them."
I agree, but to me, the username really matched, that's quite a dark thought.
Looks like my humor whiffed this time.
You're making people uncomfortable, you tiresome little shit stain. Fuck off to your own space.
I don't hate trans people, I just don't think anyone should be forced to be uncomfortable because of them.
You're scratching your head at why people are mad at you, but it's probably because you're trying to find some compromise between being pro and anti trans - two diametrically opposed ideas. You're point seems to boil down to: "I'm not transphobic, but trans people might make people uncomfortable, and we should also consider that.". But, why should be? Trans people making you feel icky is a piss-poor reason to say they can't use their preferred bathroom. People were concerned about Gay people and Black people in the same spaces as straight/white for a big chunk of the last century, it's the same reactionary bullshit as always.
I've said it before, and I'll say it a million times: your ick is your problem. (The general you) Just like one's triggers are one's own problem. No one gets to dictate how the rest of the world operates because something makes them feel grody or triggers them.
What if a male isn't trans but wants to use the women's restroom?
I don't think they should be punished unless they're being a pest.
How would you even enforce that? Are you going to have a bouncer at the door checking to see which genitals somebody has before they can enter the restroom?
It could sort of be enforced by assuming what sex people are.
The hypothetical male in question isn't an exception to how most men look or behave.
Who would be enforcing it? And how?
I mean, enforcing it really isn't the point of my question.
I was just curious how you felt about that situation.
Like I said: I don’t think they should be punished unless they’re being a pest.
Since we're talking about feelings, though: How would you feel if you weren't allowed to use the restroom of your gender?
I don't really care so long as the toilet works.
It's just that there's always something. Always someone inventing problems or trying to skirt any minor inconvenience, real or perceived, by sheer laziness.
Yesterday it was masks and today it's the fucking toilet, tomorrow what will it be? Handicapped ramps? I don't think you hate trans people but you're in that tiny minority of joyless ghouls that would rather piss off everybody than move a muscle to accommodate a need they don't have.
It's shit attitude and when I read this kind of take I just think "how do these poor people even function at work if they can't align on a simple thing like that".
