Just a joke about the beatnik poet and the stupid situation at hand.

Any doubt in your mind that she has “evolved”?

know I won’t be going into any Target stores, staying at any Marriott hotels, or using Paypal. How many others are doing that? I have no idea.”

Trump said he is going to welcome the queers and perverts to use the ladies room in his properties.

I expressed my developing thought on a thread yesterday:

For a woman or girl in a sexually difficult environment or for one who has been sexually abused, not having privacy when having to use a public rest room could be devastating. What about girls and women who go to the rest room to get away from a guy situation? What about monthly situations which for most women are as private and personal as it gets? What about girls and women with strict religious convictions for whom this is totally out of bounds? All of that goes beyond the obvious problem of pervs dressing up as women to abuse girls and women.

It's about erasing all individual identity, including sexual.

What the hell is the big deal with unisex bathrooms? They have been around since the Porta-Potties hit the sceen. People use them every day. Get over it stupid people. How many have you ever seen that a “multiple user”?

I can't think of a single instance where deviating from old "rigid norms" hasn't evolved into absurd rulings. Whenever a judge says it is absurd that their pet ruling won't eventually result in some defined absurdity, it is prudent to assume that the absurdity is a near certain eventuality. Some other judge will insist on it, and they will circle the wagons and defend the absurdity.

In short, the courts are transparently inconsistent and arbitrary. Their claim to legitimacy based on logic and "rule of law" is worthless.

-- In other words, if 14A's EPC was intended to prohibit discrimination on the basis of sex as activist justices have now argued concerning gay "marriage" for example, then there would have been no need for the EPA imo. --

Just shows that there is more than one way to skin a cat, and that courts will use whatever widget they find as the means to justify the desired outcome. Courts are outcome driven, not law driven.

… no need for the EPA ERA that is.

Not much need for that one either

I don’t disagree with you at all. I don’t want to use a locker room or bathroom with a guy.

However - men dressed as women have been using the bathrooms for years. I’ve never heard of any problems. Maybe there have been some but not publicized.

I am sure that most women have shared a public bathroom with one of these guys. They probably didn’t know it. It’s not been a problem until the liberals and sex offenders decided to push the envelope.

I’m betting that there are single stall bathrooms at Trump’s properties.

Single stall bathrooms are the solution.

OK for a small venue, but prohibitively costly for anywhere mass gatherings are frequent and many facilities are needed.

I agree, it wasn’t a problem because the transgenders didn’t make it one. The liberal maniacs create a problem and then demand their solution. With the way this has been publicized, there is NO WAY that it won’t be exploited.

It’s not like everyone has to go to the bathroom at the same time. And if there’s a line....well then, they can just stare at each other.

Sorry-—it was past my bedtime and my sense of humor gene was sound asleep.
