The others are much, much worse. This isn't something I chose.
people are always afraid of what's different. it's inherent in the GOP platform where ignorance runs RAMPANT!

I would call a person by a preferred pronoun while talking to him/her if it made the gender identity person feel better. I don't wish to hurt anyone's feelings. However, a female is defined by science, physical biology as having XX chromosomes with very rare exceptions. Feelings don't determine gender.

Default Target to install single stall bathrooms in all stores

Everyone gets their potty preference.

That's a good thing.

But I have to admit that I don't recall ever going into a Target restroom. Still, I'll buy at Target five times before I ever walk in Walmart's door.

Yeah. I really wish some people would study the issue objectively before stomping around Target screaming about it. Or sounding off about it in general. But you know what they say, "you can lead a person to knowledge, but you can't make them think."

Oh brother. Just because women reject these poorly written laws (one cannot substantiate how a person identifies just from them entering the bathroom) that leave open the possibility of real predators to abuse the laws, doesn't mean we're AFRAID of transgender people. And I reject the MISOGYNIST notion that people who desire to keep male genitalia are women.
