Are they gender neutral bathrooms?

[–] Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

The law was generic and provided access in all bathrooms. Having them in a men’s room can be useful trans folks, guys that need to grab something for a woman in their life, or women that need to use the men’s room in an emergency.

Didn't even consider trans folks. I was thinking back to when I was in 4th grade (a very very long time ago). Trans people weren't exactly common place in the 70s.

I would argue that they were just as common, they were just not allowed to be out and visible in most places.

But yeah, America’s far right is currently obsessed with bathrooms and where a trans kid might need to take a leak.

Well yeah, it’s not like trans people were invented in the last 40 years :)

But the funny thing is I’d say almost all of these conservatives have gender neutral bathrooms at home stocked full of feminine products.

Because if your gender is a boy, you can’t menstruate?
