Sexual orientation has nothing to do with identity. Homosexuality is a behavior and people do not have to tolerate all kinds of behaviors especially those that conflict with morality.

Now, allowing a man to use the women locker room because he claims he feels like a girl inside, is just absurd.

I think it would be better for you to teach your kids that there are people out there who differ from them in many respects and that they shouldn't discriminate against others for things like race, creed, and orientation.

You lose nothing by letting them live your lives with dignity while you do the same.
So why can't women and girls live their lives with dignity by enjoying female-only bathrooms and locker rooms?

Exactly, why should the 99.7% (not pulled out of thin air) have to give that up for the .3%.
I doubt all of the .3% are clamoring for the opportunity either.

it's home schooling for my kids if this crap is pushed and eventually becomes mandatory
Nah, he's just trying to sew up the LGBT vote and has run out of social issues for most of the letters.


Don't think for a second obama doesn't know what he is doing. It seems to most he is saddled with behavioral pathologies and that may be true to some extent, but most of all he is an ideolog willing to sacrifice whoever he pretends to befriend.

So, what exactly is the BFD?
What's the BFD? The multiple occupancy school changing/locker/shower rooms to which this also applies. In almost all states, the exposure of one's penis to girls (and vice versa) is a FELONY indecent exposure sex crime when it occurs on school grounds and/or the reporting victim is a minor.

This whole bathroom thing is absurd.
Obama is the master of the bait and switch and the American public has a short memory SO what is he hiding?

Has this bathroom nonsense been heralded to divert attention from the situation at the border? Is there some scandal brewing on the horizon.

It just seems like such a ridiculous cause for the President of the United States to take up for such a small fraction of society. There are plenty of schools that don't have transgendered students and if they did I'm sure they would make accommodations for that kid but to make it a nation wide mandate and if not followed the school risks federal funding??

How is that fair to 99.9% of regular students?? Is America heading off a cliff and this is Obamas way to divert our attention?

Dear Conservos:

Please relax and take a deep breath.

Transgenders have been using public school bathrooms since long before any of you were ever born.

Thank you.

They DIDN'T expose their opposite sex genitalia to minors in multiple occupancy changing/locker/shower rooms. ...Until now that Obama has given them permission to do so.

Oh, for crying out loud with this silliness.

Kids have seen each other's pee pees all the time throughout history and it hasn't sent the world spinning off it's axis yet. Kids have played together in the altogether in many parts of the world with none of the ill effects stated as unavoidable here in idiot Disneyland.

Perhaps if you boobs wouldn't place such a high degree of caution against the mere sight of the opposite genitalia there'd be far fewer pedophiles or other sexual deviants.

Only in faux puritanical America does this assume the temerity of the Salem Witch hunts.

If your little snowflake is going to be so emotionally scarred for life at the mere prospect she/he might be subjected to the sight of a dangling "chad", or a missing one, keep her/him the hell home in their little cocoon where they obviously belong.

Cripes you're preparing your kids to be fragile little simpletons needing protection from everything but the more harsh of life's realities.

Transgenders and their existence is a fait-accompli. Get over it already. Move on and start looking over your shoulders for albinos, port wine birth marks, club feet, crossed eyes or some other equally dangerous confrontation your wee specials are equally as unlikely to be affected by or even care about but according to you, mentally fractured for life.
