Actually, yes I was concerned before the Charlotte ordinance. It has been happening all over the country in the high schools where boys “identifying” as girls are being allowed to use the girls restroom and locker room. I find that to be a problem. It is not an issue of “trannies”, as you casually dismiss. It is anybody that “says” they identify as the opposite sex. They don’t have to actually BE a “transgender”, they can just claim it. I is patently absurd. And very dangerous.
Recently there was the case of the man “identifying” as a woman who raped two women in a women’s facility. There was also the situation in Canada (which is where this is headed) where a university decided to make their bathrooms/showers a free-for-all, and *surprise*, two males were caught taking video of girls over the shower stalls. The administration there was actually surprised. Good grief.
Yes, it is has been a concern of mine for well over a year.
Well there have been transexuals around since at least the 70’s when surgery advanced. So far it has not been a big problem in public facilities. We have laws against rape and deviant behavior. Women have been raped in public restrooms in the past by men who were not dressed as transexuals. Women get raped in public places all the time. Its not necessarily connected to this issue in a large sense.
The only place you and I agree on this issue is that in schools non gender changing and restroom areas are a poor idea.
