G.O.P. lawmakers whose leaders have pressed to roll back transgender rights around the country moved to bar Sarah McBride, the first transgender member of Congress, from women’s rooms on Capitol Hill.
In Washington this week for new member orientation, Ms. McBride was still sitting through mandatory cybersecurity trainings, setting up her payroll, selecting district offices and learning how to introduce a bill when her new Republican colleague, Representative Nancy Mace of South Carolina, announced plans to introduce a measure to bar transgender women from using women’s restrooms and changing rooms in the Capitol complex.
Ms. Mace did not try to pretend that she was doing anything other than targeting one individual with her resolution, even though it would apply to all employees and officers of the House.
“Sarah McBride doesn’t get a say,” she told reporters on Monday night. “I mean, this is a biological man.” She said that Ms. McBride “does not belong in women’s spaces, women’s bathrooms, locker rooms, changing rooms — period, full stop.”
Whats wrong with being grouped with the disabled they are just people? And im pretry sure most bathrooms come in sets of 3 mens womens and handicapped thats my point. Well unless u live in a 3rd world country that isnt accommodating to the differently abled.
Because they’re not disabled. What are you even talking about?
That’s like supporting some racist segragationist bullshit by saying “well, can’t black people just use disabled bathrooms? They’re a small portion of the population.”
See how ridiculous that sounds? It’s not disparaging to disabled people to point out how inappropriate that is. You’re just making life harder for disabled people to feed some asshole’s bigotry.
Where do you live where you see a disabled bathroom wherever there’s a mes and women’s room? They have handicapped stalls, but it’s rare to see entire handicapped bathrooms.
Australia do u guys not have that in the states?
A few places like airports, maybe some theme parks. They’re very rare.
