It looks like Portyhead tried to explain and got deleted for some reason. I wonder what that would be all about.

Good for Massachusetts for this law!

But at the same time, I also support making military service members protected as well.

It actually happens all the time, although men tend to pay very little attention to each other in the bathroom, or so I am told. And yes, I have first hand knowledge that it happens.

California passed a similar bill recently. It's not like this is a new bill.

It will mostly affect women's bathrooms. Men aren't going to be raped by a female to male tranny but if I had a daughter I sure as hell want her to have to share bathrooms with these sort of perverts.
