I'm curious what you think the evil is vs. good.

To me, the evil is calling people who are born different from us mental cases, treating them as sub human, etc. whereas the good is understanding that just because I am born a certain way doesn't confer privileges that others should be denied.

These two issues are not related. You're just looking for a way to wave the genitals of transgendered people in our daughters' faces with a smug smile on your face. Culture wars can be brutal that way I suppose.

I've never had genitals waved in my face in a public restroom or locker room.

Have you?

Transgenders shave been using public bathrooms since they existed. It was not until recent that the paranoid folks decided they had to protect themselves from the evil...that doesn't exist. Never had anything waved in my face.

Neither do I, and this is exactly the kind of ridiculous argument I am talking about. Just because an unrelated activity is dangerous, it does not mitigate the dangerousness of a different action.

Just because you haven't doesn't mean that is the experience of anyone else. I can't imagine how you can avoid getting flashed a couple of times in a communal locker room. But, since we are trading anecdotal evidence, at my gym one day I was greeted by a sign that said Individuals over the age of 6 with male genitalia are not allowed to use this facility. Please use either one of our (three) family locker rooms, (three) individual handicap accessible locker rooms, or the men's locker room.. When I asked about it I was told an adult with a penis walked naked into the four showerhead area. The ladies claimed the person's penis was somewhat erect, but the two ladies I was talking to had not actually been in the shower area, just heard the screams, so who knows. The problem is there were children also using the locker room at the time getting ready for a swim class, and according to them, a couple were in the shower area. The sign was up for a while but has since been taken down and staff will not discuss it, apparently under threat of job loss.

I was only speaking to my own experience. I've seen plenty of breasts but whatever. I've seen plenty of male chests at the gym too. Maybe people here are more discreet in the locker rooms? We have individual changing areas with curtains and women wear towels going from the shower to the changing areas.

As for church attendance, it doesn't matter. There IS a rampant sexual abuse issue in many churches/denominations. The problem is that churches HIDE these pedophiles by moving them to other parishes. Where is the outcry?

Seriously man? Like, SERIOUSLY?

I don't know why I am wasting my time even writing this post but here it goes:

NO, I am absolutely NOT okay with the rape of ANYONE.

NO, raping children is NOT part of their "culture" any more than child marriage is part of the mainstream Christian culture. Extremist behavior should NEVER be something we ascribe to the majority. By that very unintelligent measure, I could say white men are overwhelmingly violent, masochistic *******s who drool at the idea of shooting up schools and beating their wives.

SMH

No....

Let me spell it out for you.

Child molestation is real.

Predation is real.

Pizzagate is not.

See how that works?
