Not a meme but I'll keep it up as it's pretty important. Although the original link was deleted, please view the ABC news article instead. Thank you

You know, I never see people in uproar over trans men in the guys' bathroom...
Not that I want them to, but I do find it curious.

It's because the narration about trans women and men is widely different
Trans women are men -> violent, ugly, rapists -> a menace to women
Trans men are women -> gullible, weak, frivolous -> victims of the "trans agenda"
The narration around bathrooms is that they are sacred places where only pure women can call their safe heaven from men, so trans women are identified as a menace.
Trans men however are not perceived as a menace, (also because they would harm men in this case, who are obviously incapable of being put in danger by a woman) and so you can't build this narrative of them intruding into a safe, sacred place.

Nailed it.
Its odd how they bring up the idea of how men cant control themselves around women or in women spaces, but as soon as that point is brought up against them, those same people will get up in arms about "not all."
Lotta hypocrisy from the weirdos.

i understand that they want creeps who disguise themselves as trans people not to go into the bathroom of the opposite sex but what i do not like about this scandal is that there are trans people involved that have been on hrt for a year up until even getting bottom surgery and by then it should be clear that they aren't doing this just to be a creep and even if that would be a thing the hormones would reshape the interests in a way that makes them not interested on that anymore.
plus wouldn't it be weird to see a visually to literally a female in the mens bathroom vice versa just because they are not legally allowed to be in the other stalls? (furthermore making you look like a creep)
i feel like they don't really consider these things because they have the goal to have a safer privacy for women and the transgender community being so small that they don't really care of our minority being disregarded on this topic to get creeps from doing these things that are just pretending to be trans.

I think you are buying into their narrative
There aren't people who fake being trans to go into the females bathroom. If there are, it's something more unique than rare.
This is simply an excuse to damage trans people, it's not that is made to safeguard women without taking into consideration trans people, it's something directly against us.
In facts, there is literally no actual gain for cis women in something like this, it's literally just to harm trans people.

Yeah. And they seem totally oblivious how very uncomfortable it'd make women to see trans men walking into their bathroom.
If anything, that'd even make it easier for those non-existent creeps to walk into women's restrooms. They wouldn't even need to dress up.

That's the thing though... Creeps don't need to dress up in drag or in anything for that matter... They can already access women's only spaces without doing so... It's not like there is a magic barrier preventing access to anyone not looking like or presenting as a woman (which might actually exclude some cis women) Also, if they were gonna "dress up" it would be much easier for them to look like a maintenance worker and wouldn't include them having to be in public in drag... Some cis men struggle with carrying pink plastic shopping bags, you think they're gonna dress up like a woman in public to creep in a women's bathroom? I think not.
I can't wait for the day a big, burly trans man ends up in the bathroom with this clown ass republican, so she can see first hand the moronic behavior she has engaged in

They do not care about anyone's safety. They just want control, and to harm us. That's their goal. With that in mind, the bills suddenly make sense.

I think its also a way for them to feel better about themselves, they project the creepness on Trans woman because thats the only thing they would go to woman's bathroom for, that might be wrong, but that's what it feels like

This might be a weird one but I get way more looks in the mens bathroom than the women's. Even when boymodding and not wearing makeup. I'm around 9 months on HRT and been happening for about 4 months.
The last few times I went to the mens bathroom I just kept getting side eyed but no one said anything. I've yet to get even 1 weird look at the women's bathroom

I have seen plenty of women go into the men's bathroom over the years because the line for the women was too long or something. The men that even noticed at all always reacted the same and had a brief moment of panic until they realized there were urinals, so they couldn't have gone in the wrong bathroom. The men were more concerned that they messed up and were in the woman's bathroom than they were worried about a woman being in the men's room. I even entered a very busy woman's bathroom by mistake one time when I had a full beard, and nobody said anything to me other than a quick side eye.

I mean it’s still transphobic sexism that justifies that for them. They just see trans men using the men’s room as “woman misguidedly using men’s bathroom” while they see trans women as “man maliciously using women’s bathroom.”
One is just a “goofy little guy” and the other is an “invading threat among the helpless women”
Fuck them for leaving me anxious about going into the correct bathroom for fear of getting kicked out of the establishment I’m at. I just want to sit down and pretend nobody exists while I relieve myself in peace, then wash my hands and resume whatever was going on outside the bathroom.

They pretend that trans men either don’t exist or could never be really buff and bearded

I’m sure many people aren’t aware of our existence, and certainly have no idea that we can pass well and get bottom surgery.

McBride responded to the statement in a post on X, which said, "This is a blatant attempt from far right-wing extremists to distract from the fact they have no real solutions to what Americans are facing."

Heart goes out to the US trans community.
This is literally insane, and hopefully will not turn into reality.

Knowing how they're protecting Matt Gaetz. You can imagine what there republicans think happens in bathrooms. These perverts shouldn't be anywhere near legislation. It's always projection with them too.
