Walgreens Caves to ACLU, Allows Men in Women’s Restrooms
2ndVote ^ | February 7, 2018 | 2ndVote

Posted on 02/10/2018 11:36:31 AM PST by Tolerance Sucks Rocks

Walgreens will now allow men to use women’s restroom facilities in all stores across the country on the basis of “gender identity” as opposed to biological sex.

The company announced the new policy after a female LGBT activist claimed a Walgreens employee forced her to use the men’s restroom because of her “appearance.” The American Civil Liberties Union of Southern California assisted the individual, who is biologically female and identifies as female, in bringing her complaint to Walgreens corporate.

Instead of affirming that a woman should be able to use the women’s restroom, Walgreens, at the urging of the ACLU and other LGBT activists, has apparently decided best remedy for the situation is to welcome biological men to use the women’s restroom. The company’s new policy, per a directive released this week, says:

According to the same directive, Walgreens defines “gender identity” as: “A person’s innate, deeply-felt sense of one’s gender. One’s gender identity may not correspond to that person’s sex as assigned at birth.”

In other words, gender identity is what that person feels, at that given moment.

I was about to switch my pharmacy to a Walgreen’s near my house and backed out after hearing this news.

Terrific. No more Walgreen’s for me. Cashing in my points, spending my last gift card and I’ll be telling them why.

Dumb@sses!

Do an ultrasound. The sex is present before birth. It is not “assigned”.

OK, Walgreens.
You have competitors, and I know where they are.
Bye.
You either listen to those of us who do not have mental problems, or you cater to the 0.000001%.

JFK put men on the Moon.

Obama put men in women’s bathrooms.

And had Hillary Clinton’s and the Democrat’s full support.

Message to Walgreens: You will pay a price in boycott cost lost business. You will also pay a big price the first time some perv assaults a woman in the women's restroom or somebody decides to do a little sex reassignment surgery in that restroom.

I know someone who did the same thing. He called the Walgreen’s pharmacy and then the manager and told them why they were losing his business.

He told them that if they had more consideration for some weirdo than they did for his 12 year old granddaughter who might be subjected to that, they were never getting any of his business again.

I am sad to see that Target’s stock price went all the way back to where it was

I’ll never shop there again but most folks are fickle.

I’d already used the last straw on Walgreens so guess this cements the deal. No way am I spending another dime there. Here, their pharmacist and people in the window are beyond rude and prescriptions are double or more than Walmart.

Looks like the translation should be: biologically female activist intentionally desired to be confused with a male so that she would be redirected into the men's restroom. Then she could be triggered and therefore agitate (bully) corporate eunuchs for the policy change.

SOP for vile, society-destroying malcontents.

You can guarantee they’ll all have the same bathroom policy as Walgreens does.

Whether it’s the ACLU or a couple of male queers, both live nasty smears on public toilet seats. Recall just a few years back when the queer mayor of Portland Oregon molested a HS kid in a public toilet and wasn’t even removed from office. Male adult queers molesting young boys: 20 years in the slammer, minimum sentence.

The problem is with the ACLU. Wake up.

Said more accurately, human sex is determined at conception by the male sperm gamete. An X sperm combines with the egg, and you have a female zygote. A Y, and you have a male zygote.

There is no “assignment”, there is luck of the draw.
