Kentucky senator proposes transphobic bathroom "bounty"

[Farnhamia]

Yes, but remember, the bill gives the ability to bring a suit against the school, it doesn't guarantee victory. It does put already precarious school budgets at risk. In some places in this country, "small government" seems to mean "bleed the school systems dry." I can't imagine that this many people had bad experiences in public school and then were elected to state legislatures. The mind boggles.

Well they shouldn't have used the school restrooms in their youth. I never used a bathroom in all my years going to school because they smelled worse then a sewer and were NOT maintained up to code. Hell most people at my high school would use them as "sex rooms".

You held it all day long until you got home? That can't be good for you.

I have kidney problems and ulcers, but never had to sit on pee soaked toilet seats or listen to idiots make fart noises while one tried to go to the bathroom...

I remember their was this sicko who would soak all the toilet paper and dry it (during recess) and put it back on the roll. The school couldn't do anything to the kid when they busted him because he was mentally disabled and thought he was "cleaning the paper by washing it"....

I couldn't make that shit up if I tried...

ehh...I regret nothing, but can I sue the school system because their shitty bathrooms caused my health problems?

"Transgender" is not a real thing. People with GID(Gender Identity Disorder) shouldn't be pandered to as some kind of mythical "third gender". Even when they go through "Transitions" a large number of them still commit suicide and its sad to see.
I don't understand why you crazy lefties pander to these people and indulge their delusions.

"Transphobic" is an irrational fear of being across something.
Trans is the latin word for "Across"
Phobia comes from the greek word Phobos which means "Irrational fear".
I can assure no one has an irrational fear of GID sufferers, pity yes but not fear.

I am not a lefie or a commie or anything liberal except for my sexual orientation.

I hate everyone equally, and there's no one alive who can comprehend my sexual preference.

Be careful how you categorize people as being "deluded." And "phobic" can also mean - and frequently does - "in opposition to" as well as referring to fear. So, yeah, "transphobic" means "against the transgendered." Really, this is not a new thing.

Do I get bonus points for replying to this in the women's restroom?

I'll allow it. x2 bonus if you can hear someone menstruating.

Well,then...The tax payers/schools will definitely suffer. You will have stupid kids who are desperate for cash suing the schools because they saw a short haired girl who dresses tomboyishly in the girls room. Or my favorite an effeminate emo boy who dresses scene going into the Men's room.

It's simple, really. If the schools have no money they'll have to close down. If the schools are closed, no one can take any tests. If no one can take the tests, no one fails. Bam, Kentucky has the best schools in the country, 0% fail rates.

You know what's really cool? Snowflakes.

You see, each one is special and is not like any other snowflake. No one can possibly draw any comparisons from one snowflake to another, because each one is just so extremely special that you cannot understand a specific snowflake without years of study of that one specific snowflake. There are no generalizations that apply to snowflakes in general, because they're all just so extremely special.

So simple. It's posts like this that make me wonder why the Irish don't rule the world.

Does Homophobia really exist? I've never seen or hear of people actually being scared of gays only being jerks and avoiding them. If no one is actually scared should it still be called a phobia?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/-phobe

The English suffixes -phobia, -phobic, -phobe (of Greek origin: φόβος/φοβία ) occur in technical usage in psychiatry to construct words that describe irrational, disabling fear as a mental disorder (e.g. agoraphobia), in chemistry to describe chemical aversions (e.g. hydrophobic), in biology to describe organisms that dislike certain conditions (e.g. acidophobia), and in medicine to describe hypersensitivity to a stimulus, usually sensory (e.g. photophobia). In common usage they also form words that describe dislike or hatred of a particular thing or subject. The suffix is antonymic to -phil-.

I really do get exceptional mileage out of this post.

In opposition to something would be antithesis.

This is why bathrooms should be by biological sex, not gender. While I happen to disagree with the idea that gender is at all mutable(or, really, at all different from biological sex- all the other stuff people want to list is gender role nonconformity or sexual orientation rather than gender per se in my view), it's also a can of worms that we don't really need to get into, and bathrooms tend to be optimized for biological sex anyway, not gender roles. So in conclusion, use the bathroom marked for your set of equipment because that causes it to function most efficiently; if you can pee standing up(with any kind of accuracy, at least), do so in the men's room because it reduces wait time. If you can't, women's rooms tend to have more stalls available. Yes, I am fully aware that some men can't pee standing up because of other issues, but it seems easier to not make exceptions.

You should consider instituting this program at our local university. PhD on Special Snowflake studies. NSG is the prime Case study.

So if the stalls in the men's room are full, and the stalls in the women's are empty, and I want to use a stall, it's more efficient for me, being biologically male as I am, to wait in the men's room than to use a stall in the women's? Explain this to me.

They petitioned Obama to make the Death Star real, maybe we could do something similar for you. A totes4realz DM probably costs way less than a totes4realz Death Star.

I'm gonna assume that you're male and identify as such. Am I right?

[Krieg-Deathworld]

Why is this such an issue? If you are seemingly a guy, use the mens, if you are seemingly a girl, use the woman's restroom. Why is this so he hard to comprehend?

Identifying by your gender is not shallow. And no one truly defines themselves by just one aspect.
