It’s coming that we’ll have no choice who is in the restrooms. Therefore normal people will avoid using public restrooms and the minority once again “protected”....

On June 8, 2010, by the narrowest of margins (12-11), the New York State Senate Judiciary Committee voted to reject a bill known as ‘the Gender Expression Non-Discrimination Act’.... (GENDA or the “Bathroom Bill”).

This piece of legislation (S2406 Duane) would open all public accommodations, including restrooms, high school locker rooms, health clubs, dorm rooms and other single sex residential facilities (like homeless and family violence shelters) to both biological genders, dependent upon whether or not an individual chooses to identify his or herself as the opposite sex (i.e. cross-dressers or transvestites).

New Yorkers for Constitutional Freedoms’ (NYCF) Executive Director, Rev. Jason J. McGuire, made the following comments: “As a pro-life, Christian organization, NYCF upholds the inherent value and worth of all people – including persons who identify as transgendered. However, there is simply no need to provide special rights and protections to individuals who choose to dress or identify themselves as members of the opposite sex.”

“Under the legislation, any man could legally gain access to facilities reserved for women and girls simply by indicating, verbally or non-verbally, that he inwardly feels female at the moment. There is no way to distinguish between someone suffering from what the American Psychological Association calls ‘Gender Identity Disorder’ and a sexual predator looking to exploit this law,” McGuire continued.

Psychology, and especially the APA, is no more scientific than reading tarot cards. Psychology and psychiatry are inherently political.
