Wikipedia is not a valid resource

The racist/bigot card is the last argument of the ignorant.

Anyone waiting for the Sex Offense complaints to start flying with this? How in the heck can you see into someone's mind to see exactly why they want to be in a certain bathroom or changing room?

All the people that are so up in arms screaming about the need for Jessica's Law everywhere should be apoplectic over this new law.
All the people who were freaking out over secret camera's in locker rooms should be beside themselves about this. Now they don't have to hide them, they can just walk 'em in and stand there.

Won't work. It would be challenged on the basis of the good ol' "separate but equal" issue.

Claims of "species dysphoria" is just as valid as "gender dysphoria". GD is just a made up PC diagnosis from those not wanting to call it what it is - mental illness. Acquiescence to such madness is not a valid solution. Mutilation does not change the nature of an individual - carving off of a man's penis, along with the insertion of rubber boobs, does make him a woman, not does allowing a woman to undergo an addadictomy make her a man. It makes them mentally ill people who are now mutilated on top of everything else. Such a condition within the minds of the sick does not deserve for a moment the "respect" of which you speak.

Giving in to the delusions of the insane who comprise less than 0.1% at the discomfort of the other 99.9% of the population is madness. If I teach my cat to bark, it doesn't make him a dog.

Therapy may be a solution, along with ample doses of psychotropic drugs. For others, confinement in an appropriate secure institution far, far away from the general public may be the solution.

And claims of victimhood and bigotry is the last refuge of the defeated.

I really don't understand why California is the laughing stock of the country.

Who says California is the laughing stock of the US? Conservatives? I'd consider Mississippi, Alabama, or Florida to be worse.

Every other state in the union and any rationale person left in California.

Anyone who thinks this law is good needs a good mental health professional.

But it's California which is widely known as the Land of Fruit and Nuts, which has nothing to do with its agricultural resources.

The sad part is they aren't the laughingstock of far too much of the country.

Do you have any statistical evidence of this claim?
