Trans people are still estimated to be 0.5% of the population. It is WAY more likely you would never hear about it or meet a trans person unless you live in a high-population city which by percentages raises your probability of running into a trans person.
Creating a fear or concern over Trans people and bathrooms when most Americans will never meet one or run into one in a restroom is stupid and just fearmongering. Not to mention if the Trans person has completed cosmetic surgery to the face and is on hormone therapy you would likely not even know it was a trans person in the restroom at all.
It is mind-boggling that economic issues, concerns with the cost of living, cost of food, cost of housing, and lack of wage increases for decades are all talked about less than Trans and bathrooms currently.
Regardless of whether you think it's important, it sort of is. You just saw an entire brand get taken down because the "transgenderism" nonsense.
If you stand by and let women get taken advantage of, or just in general turn a blind eye to basic truth, before you know it your society has degenerated into a bad place.
It takes generations, but it's already well underway. So, yes, you SHOULD care.
Transmen use the men's restroom all the time, and rarely would a man complain about that.
Transmen in the ladies room would certainly raise a few eyebrows.
They probably do and nobody realizes it. Women using men's restrooms happens all the time at crowded events where the ladies restrooms have lines a mile long and the mens you can just walk in. I cant be the only one who has noticed this happens. Perhaps its a difference between men and women. As a guy i actively try not to pay any attention to anyone else in the Mens bathroom.
There were several athletes who were transmen at the university I used to work for - baseball and soccer.
Transmen are quite vocal about being allowed to use men's restrooms since the same people complaining about transwomen using women's restrooms "with their wives and daughters" would be downright dangerous if a transman walked into the same restroom when appearing like a man.
So you don't think this transman would raise a few eyebrows in the ladies room?
