ESPN shoots air ball with explanation of N.C. transgender bathroom law
wash times ^ | 4/22/16 | Bradford Richardson

Posted on 04/23/2016 5:55:55 AM PDT by doldrumsforgop

ESPN sports journalist Rachel Nichols on Friday misrepresented a North Carolina law that prohibits people from using the public facilities of the opposite sex.

Ms. Nichols said the law prevents any city in North Carolina from passing legislation prohibiting discrimination on the basis of sexuality or gender identity.

“I know some people like to call this the ‘bathroom law,’ but it’s about so, so much more than bathrooms,” Ms. Nichols said on her ESPN show, “NBA: The Jump.” “The new law in North Carolina takes away any North Carolina city’s ability to protect anyone who is gay, lesbian, transgender in any way; to protect them from getting fired from their job, just because they are gay; to protect them from getting kicked out of their house, just because they’re gay.”

North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory, a Republican, last week issued an executive order doing exactly the opposite.

Mr. McCrory’s executive order allowed local governments the right to structure nondiscrimination employment policies however they choose.

The executive order also expanded state equal employment opportunity policies to include sexual orientation and gender identity.

Let's see: A role model Hall of Fame pitcher tells the truth and gets fired.

A nothing sports commentator lies to cover ESPN's firing and zilch happens to her.

How moral is this network, anyway?

Once upon a time, ESPN use to be just be about sports. Now they’ve changed their mission (apparently) to championing LBGT rights. One more reason I don’t regret cutting my cable cord. Starve the beast!

But that explanation fits with my understanding of the bill. (With a little hyperbole in the description.)

What isn’t accurate?

I stumbled on this whacked out website looking for something else.

The Crossdreamer Portal: For people who dream about crossing gender lines

Sites for crossdreamers, crossdressers, girlfags, trans and queer
There are men who dream about being women and women who dream about being men, and who express this longing through fantasies and/or crossdressing. We call them crossdreamers.

Please note that the terms “autogynephilia” and “autoandrophilia” are both misleading and offensive. I am including them here, as I know people search for the terms when trying to understand what crossdreaming is all about.

I think they should take “gender” out of it completely. I don’t care if you identify as a can of WD-40, if you are a can of WD-40 with a penis you use the “penis” room, and if not you use the “no penis” room. I can’t wait to see the new signs on the doors.

Since Disney owns ESPN, Curt should ask Dismey if that guy would be welcome in the ladies room at Magic Kingdom or Typhoon Lagoon.

All you need to know is that ESPN is wholly owned by Disney. Disney is totally controlled by the most radical progressives and gays in Hollywood. To say they are politically correct delusionists on a mission of perverse propaganda is to badly understate their agenda.

This is a terrific website, I was amazed to see how common it is for tranny predators to troll bathrooms.

https://autogynephiliatruth.wordpress.com/2016/04/15/ladies-take-your-chances/

“Ladies, take your chances?”
Like all men, a small proportion of female impersonators are truly non-violent, even gentlemanly. Many others are rapists, sexual sadists and homicidal maniacs. The rest are somewhere in between. Which means: Ladies, take your chances — right? No.

Just by being a man who insists he’s a woman, transgressing in women’s spaces, replicating “feminine” stereotypes and finding “validation” in demanding to have these played back to him, his life has become a completely debauched mockery and completely dedicated to exterminating real women.

Women are more than an outfit of clothes, more than a wig, more than liking to shop, more than picking flowers, more than a sexy feeling in a man’s head.

ESPN is the greatest collection of glittering jewels of collosal ignorance in the multiverse.

Why, oh why, are we not given the option to not pay to have these idiots on our cable networks.

The threat to women and girls presented by transgender “bathroom bills”

https://autogynephiliatruth.wordpress.com/2015/11/04/the-threat-to-women-and-girls-presented-by-transgender-bathroom-bills/

Outstanding website and articles, with countless examples of male cross-dressers using a dress as camouflage to prey upon kids in bathrooms.

Shilling is an entrepreneurial guy. He needs to join with Ditka and launch a new network. Hell, let’s go further an launch a new ‘Sling’ competitor that lumps the new sports network with some non-commie news and a few other networks. I’d pay for that and dump satellite tomorrow.

There is only one way. Cut the cable. Tell them you will be back when they have a la carte. Until customers do that nothing will change.

Only their bottom line will force them to act.

ESPN is obsessed with perversion as well. God help them and have mercy on their souls.

“crossdreamers” ... “girlfags” . . . autogynephilia”
... “autoandrophilia”

Well, I don’t feel bad that I never knew any of these neologisms existed.
