I'm sure all 20 transgender people in North Carolina are entirely grateful for Bruce Springsteen canceling a concert for their benefit. are we discussing bruce springsteen's choice as a performer, or the rights of transgender people? defending one does not mean you are defending the other, necessarily. Well it does, actually. His choice as a performer was regarding "the rights" of transgender people.

Pretty soon going to the bathroom will be like flying, where we have to go through a scanner where it sees what we're packing before you can enter. Non-transgendered Asian men who just want to use the men's bathroom are going to be screwed. Lol. Speaking of asians, I admire the hell out of them. As far as race goes, they get the brunt of shit and get made fun of the most. Tiny penis, can't drive, etc... You don't see them getting involved in this giant race war. Because they got better things to do, like becoming scientists, engineers, mathematicians and shiz.

What do you think the ratio of "Women uncomfortable with transgender women in the women's restroom" and "total transgender women" in the United States is?

You guys clearly haven't seen the backlash of Tilda swinton taking on the role that is supposed to be an old Asian guy in the doctor strange movie. Not to mention their general pissiness at a white guy gaining mystical power from the orient.

Asians love the stereotypical jokes about them. White dudes and black dudes though, act offended. Jews are like Asians in that regard. They own that shit.

Also, men transitioning to women have been using women's restrooms for years without incident. The danger to women and kids is still straight cisgendered men. The men who are making and passing useless unenforceable waste of time laws

Conservative logic 101: Doesn't understand "this is like arguing if you're gay, just shut up and fall in line" and how no one should have to do that. And then says "hypocrite! You want me to fall in line with your way of thinking! And don't respect my way of thinking!" No?

The majority is not the superior citizen, simply the loudest. Majorities shift and opinions change and people fight unjust laws. That is a working democracy and it is a beautiful thing!

The men who are making and passing useless unenforceable waste of time laws Let's ban priests because it is a well know fact that pedos go for those types of jobs or statuses. I mean, that is the same exact logic! Lol

It's an age old philosophical quandary, zombs. When does the needs of a few outweigh the needs of the many? Some might let the whole world burn just to save one person, others might view that as extremely selfish. It's either the beauty or problem with humanity.
