    I thought the entire point was to keep Trans people away from the kids? How is an adult only bathroom affecting kids? This some Jim Crow type shit

    Has the orange arse even hit the seat yet? People were really fucking fast with throwing out all their pretense of progressivity.

      I’ve been trans to over 10 years. We never left the cross hairs. The vast majority of people do not care about us

      Anti-trans laws have only increased in recent years. Having a Republican president won’t impact state legislatures and their momentum on this

    Looking at the bill text for HB-121. Looks like the “covered entities” can be sued if they even grant permission to someone to use a restroom that doesn’t match their sex. Or if they don’t “take reasonable steps to prohibit” them from using the facilities, whatever that means.

    It also doesn’t mention how one might determine another’s sex. Should get spicy.

    Why do we still deal with gendered bathrooms in 2025?

    Just get a specific urinal room, and mark the rooms with stalls as “WC”.

      Interestingly, SEATAC airport has started doing exactly that in (at least Concourse D). It’s one big long hallway with sinks on one wall and floor-to-ceiling doors for the toilets. And a separate room off to the back with a sliding door for urinals. They’ve got enough toilets that wait times aren’t too atrocious

      I agree with you in theory, but as a dude who has had to take a dump after a long flight I really appreciate the shorter line

        I knew flying had gotten bad, but have they removed the bathrooms?

          Women’s washrooms tend to have longer lines than men’s, and also tend to have dirtier toilets.

              Most airlines won’t let passengers take dumps on the plane after the flight.

              My bad if you were making a joke though lol

                Yeah, but you can usually use it during the flight. Is it a common situation to only have to poo once you leave the plane? Because this is not something I’ve had to worry about.

                  I mean, you often have to spend a bit of time at the airport after a flight, 1-2 hours waiting for your luggage isn’t too uncommon. Is it really that hard to believe people have to poop during this time without having had to poop on the airplane?

    I wonder how the history books will look back on this. Will there someday be a Rosa Parks of pooping?

    There’s a lot of unguarded wilderness between Montana and Canada, trans friends. You might take note of where the unguarded areas are.
