You missed my point completely, which is that a public restroom is a very low risk place for anyone to be sexually attacked, no matter what sex the person is or identifies as.
So why ADD to the risk by allowing any male who "says" he's trans into women's facilities?

This is nothing more than YET ANOTHER example of liberals' many WARS on GIRLS/WOMEN.

Meanwhile... only 26% support exposed penises in women's/girl's facilities, and vice versa:

Oh calm down.

I really doubt she'll give a rat's, on the off chance that happens. She knows what a penis looks like.

She's got no qualms with nudity.

As long as the person is not threatening nor assaulting her, who cares? I don't understand the fear people have of seeing the human body.

Now how about answering the questions in my post. Deflecting only makes one look foolish.

You seem to be misrepresenting the poll results. There were 3 possible answers not 2. There was "support" "oppose", and "unsure"

But it's all she knows how to do. I have asked several questions, and still haven't received a straight answer to any of them.

Of course, incapable of critical thinking.

If someone is going to break the laws regarding rape, what makes you think that the laws regarding which bathroom to use would stop them at the door?

Nah, the real war on women is believing that they can't handle seeing a penis.

If someone is intent on assaulting someone they'll find a way.

Theres nothing to stop them walking into a restroom as it is, if that's what they want to do.

You didn't link to a USDoE OCR report. Now is your chance.

No you didn't. You posted a link to a news story with words like 'alleged' and 'supposedly' about what some parent at a meeting claimed she had been told and wrote your own hyperbolic conclusions.
