In a rapid legislative progression, the Utah House of Representatives has passed HB 257, a contentious bill that, if signed into law by Republican Gov. Spencer Cox, would become the first anti-LGBTQ+ bathroom ban of the year. The bill aims to stop transgender students from using restrooms and locker rooms that align with their gender identity, as well as restrict access to changing rooms in government-owned or operated facilities for transgender people of all ages.
Human Rights Campaign president Kelley Robinson expressed her strong opposition to the bill in a statement.
“This bill is an invasion of the privacy of Utahns,” Robinson said. “No student should be denied access to the bathroom that aligns with who they are. No one should fear harassment in the most private of settings. Period.” Robinson also highlighted the alarming trend of similar bathroom bans being introduced across the United States, reminiscent of North Carolina’s infamous HB2.

The reason this “trans” BS is existing is the fact that feminism is dead. That can be good or bad depending on how one looks at it. This sexual perversion culture garbage will not survive.

Right on! It’s stopped me from using mass bathrooms in stores. I stick with the one person variety.

That isn't news. It is commentary. Terrible? Anti-transgender? Neither. If only news it is just a law.
I keep telling my wife that most of the crap she reads isn't news, isn't fact. It is instead commentary, editorial and twisted lies with a hing of something like truth in them.

Women being raped by men using the ladies room is the greatest "harassment" of all.
