And so the world turns. Seattle, the city leading us to more and more government regulation, is leading the way to even more chaos. I'm sure nobody will be surprised about this event;

Man causes concern when he undresses in female locker room, cites city’s new gender rule
When a Seattle pool’s staff was alerted to a man changing in the women’s locker room, there was nothing they could thanks to the city’s new gender rule.
The staff also claimed that the man did not seem to be transgender.
Like most men have never seen a naked woman or most women have never seen a naked man. This is sheer idiocy.
Do these women want to be seen naked by a stranger? By the best estimates there are roughly 700,000 transgendered people in the United States. That is roughly .3% of the population. Why are we making laws to make .3% of the population "comfortable" resulting in 99.7% of the remaining population uncomfortable?
I am not judging people but if you are transgendered and feel uncomfortable using a locker room that fits your current equipment maybe you should not participate in that activity. Maybe you change before you go to the pool. Maybe you change at home?
Ya know, on second thought... I might have been wrong about this law.
I'm heading to the gym!!!!
And I'm gonna need a shower.
In the ladies room.
Because I am a lesbian. Or rather, I identify as a lesbian woman.
Or something like that. Whatever I'm going in!
This will just hasten the availability of single stall restrooms and changing rooms. They'll become the norm instead of the multi stall/changing room model we now have. I'm good with that and it solves everyone's problems.
As a women, if I had ever noticed a transgender person using the women's restroom prior to this law and she was not acting creepy and really just using the restroom in her own private bathroom stall like everyone else in the restroom I would not have thought twice about it. I see the law actually creating new problems for women without solving a thing due to creeps like the man in the op taking advantage of the law and using it for the purpose to creep women out.
I love how some retail stores like Target and some gyms and rec centers have "family rooms" for families, probably originally intended for parents with children of the opposite sex or for caregivers of disabled of the opposite sex to provide assistance, to use the restroom and change clothes (they are small private rooms). I think that having something like this in addition to the male/female locker rooms makes much more sense then allowing people of the opposite gender to use whatever room they would like.

Great. Because we don't want to make .3% of the population "uncomfortable" we will spend billions of dollars upgrading every school gym locker room?

Or just add a single extra bathroom to the existing facilities which would not only benefit transgenders but also mothers of young boys, fathers of young daughters and caregivers of the opposite sex to the elderly and disabled.
ISIS is sending fighters though the refugee waves.
USA debt is still rapidly rising and the fed rate is still under 1%.
The southern border is wide open, as usual.
The Federal government is sending weapons to drug cartels and no one is being punished.
But somehow making transgender folks lives easier and making them feel welcomed to the top priority of this nation. Is this freaking insane folks?
