    I was merely stating that if cis woman feel that sharing that space with trans women is not safe or ideal for them then they should have the right to express that opinion, be heard and have a discussion on it.

    You’re being intellectually dishonest though, because you know that a new physical bathroom is not going to appear out of thin air, so that women can be segregated into different own restrooms.

    And you also know that some women are not going to be refused the restroom while others are going to be able to use it.

    And finally you know you’re not going to be able to force some women to use the men’s restroom.

    The only thing that leaves is that those that are uncomfortable with it to basically try to get over it, and mind their own business, especially if there’s privacy stalls for each individual when using the restroom.

    And yes, you’re allowed and encouraged to express yourself. But it has to be done in a way that is a benefit to society and doesn’t tear it down. You have to be intellectually honest if you actually want to solve issues.

    You have to adapt to the world, not have the world adapt around you.

      I’m not being intellectually dishonest at all. Of course a new bathroom for trans people is not going to appear out of thin air, so what? That means that there should then never be a discussion on it? That’s fucking bullshit and I won’t agree to it. Again I don’t personally really care, but the fact that you can’t even conceive of such a thing happening so as to fit your argument is absolutely nutters and insane to me. Do you just give up on any problem that cannot be immediately resolved in every single situation in every single corner of the world?

      Also, speaking as a male, and speaking as someone that has seen other men say the same thing, no man in the world will care if a trans women uses the men’s restroom.
