Summary
Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) introduced a resolution to ban transgender women from using female bathrooms in the Capitol, citing “women’s rights” and opposing the “radical left.”
The move comes ahead of Rep.-elect Sarah McBride (D-Del.), the first openly transgender member of Congress, taking office.
McBride criticized the measure as a divisive distraction from real issues like housing and healthcare costs.
LGBTQ advocates condemned the resolution as discriminatory, aligning it with broader Republican anti-trans policies emphasized in their platform and political ads.
Jesus fucking Christ. This reminds me of “Whites Only” bathrooms and water fountains. It’s nothing more than trying to dehumanize people by attacking their basic needs.
The party of Identity politics.
People seem to think the Dems are so pro-trans when they don’t really do anything. Republicans just come up with random ways to make trans people’s lives more difficult for no reason.
Huh, will this give us CHEAPER EGGS? What about the BACON?
So women should use the mens bathroom? Is that what they are getting at?
How are they going to enforce it?
Yes but what are they enforcing? If you have a dick you go in the mens room, or if you were born with a dick you go in the mens room? And what are you using to verify the status of said dick? It’s all dumb. You go into a bathroom and you shut the latch. If someone is crawling under stall doors and peaking/harrassing someone they should be outed and charged no matter what the gender/sex/bathroom they are in.
If a man was crawling under my stall in the mens room, I would want him charged as well. It’s stupid to think gender matters there somehow.
I think we know the sex and gender of every rep, no? Its a finite population that doesn’t change often.
In this case its a woman who is openly trans, so we know their gender assigned at birth is male. I dont see any need to lift her skirt to enforce this law, if passed.
Also if you think that fascists have no issue with harrasing people, you have no grasp on how bad things are about to get…
I know representation is important. But why do the Karen’s get a disproportionate amount?
