An Idaho law restricting which bathrooms transgender students can use in schools will go into effect while a court challenge plays out.
Chief U.S. District Judge David Nye on Thursday denied a request by a plaintiff who is challenging the law to keep it from being enforced until the lawsuit is resolved, The Idaho Statesman reported. In August, Nye had placed the law on hold in August pending his decision.
The law will go into effect 21 days after his ruling.
It prohibits transgender students from using public school restrooms and locker rooms that align with their gender identity. It also allows other students to sue their school if they encounter a student using a bathroom that doesn’t align with their sex assigned at birth.
This is such a stupid debate. Most residential restrooms and porta potties are unisex bathrooms. If privacy is such a concern why don’t we just stop building public restrooms where the stall’s walls don’t go all the way to the floor.
We could be using our time to pass non-partisan legislation that essentially everyone would agree with, like banning civil asset forfeiture absent a criminal conviction.
People waste way too much time and money restricting shit instead of making the world or even their surrounding community better. Ugh.
we should restrict them from restricting things

They don’t. This takes away from doing actual work.
I’m glad I have two bathrooms in my house. That way I can say, “this one for biological females and that one for biological males and no, you can’t use the one in the master bedroom, you have to use the one in the hall.”
