Over here muttering about "a new Jim Crow against a persecuted minority." -

Rants are not a problem. My favorite hobby! :) What's out there is bad enough that I wonder why some people feel they need to embellish it. Be alert. Some of this will need to be fought in court if they try to implement it. If people are out to get me, paranoia is justified. And this may not be the only document. Abby -

Not in so many words, therefore it's not there at all. Excuse my paranoia. And the states passing laws against us are nothing to worry about either. Having to change my gender back to male (like in Florida) is reasonable. I should just accept it, I mean I was born with a dk. So that "F" is lie, and a fraud. My delusions need to be dealt with for my own good. I'm just frustrated these days. Just a bit of a rant. -

You probably remember the Target PR fiasco. I remember reading an account from a woman who shopped there. She went into a stall and did her business, and someone came into the bathroom and began swinging stall doors open, and when she came to her stall, the woman peeked at her through the crack. "What are you doing?" "Checking for perverts." The writer was so stunned by the absurdity that she finished up ASAP and got out of there, while the other woman entered a stall and locked it, made sure it was locked, and locked it again. -

If 9 out of 10 parts are ok, that doesn't mean I need to accept the bad parts (that are aimed directly at me). That seems suicidal. -

True, most of it has nothing to do directly with us. It's the parts that do that are the problem. I see the few problematic statements as being a big problem. Just because a lot of it may be okay, doesn't change that. Even supposing the rest of it might be good for the country, it doesn't help me if I'm being "eradicated". I suppose I should be good with that, because it's for the "greater good". If me being gone would please a number of people, then it's my civic duty to disappear, and vote to implement that. -

Yeah. There are already laws against assault. I don't think the overwhelming majority of trans women have any desire to harass cis women. Speaking for myself, if I go into a women's washroom, it's because my eyeballs are already floating - not for kicks. And I worry about getting clocked and assaulted by some guy being a "hero." -

Only three, maybe four, sections even mention transgender. Most is a conservative agenda I have no problem with. In the sections that mention transgender, there are very few lines. Those lines ARE problematic, in every case. Unequivocally. I can't see some of them standing up in court. In one case a recommended policy goes against a court decision, which strongly suggests the implementation of that policy would be stopped in court. Anyone maintaining that this is written simply to support Trump, to support him becoming a dictator, to crush transgender people is feeding you a line. Nor is it an attempt to erase transgender people. People will have to decide if the overall goals are worth the few problematic statements. Overall, I support it. Of course, I have some reservations. -

It is unfamiliar, therefore threatening. For 90% or so of the population, gender id can be simply and quickly determined by a quick anatomical observation. They have no understanding and cannot imagine what it would mean to have a body different from the id. It is unimaginable. Therefore, wrong. So there is this strong headwind. I haven't entered this discussion, but here is a script: A: I can't imagine what it must be to have TG. B: You're a man, right? A: Well, of course. "amused" B: Imagine you were required by law and custom to wear women's clothing all the time. A: It wouldn't happen. B: Okay, but for the sake of the argument... A: That would be disgusting. I would be very uncomfortable. B: You have it. That is what TG people go through all the time. 24-7-365. A: Really? B: And then they are told they are perverts for having those feelings. The same you just described. A: I see. B: And someone comes along and tells you you need conversion therapy so you will be comfortable wearing women's clothing all the time. A: I think I would break his nose. B: You understand transgender folk better than you think. -

I have found some people correlate TG = child predator ... just as some have correlated homosexual = child predator... I am baffled by the TG = unsafe connection ... my wife tends to think this way, that this is all about sexual deviancy ... I try to ask how my preference for wearing frilly socks with embroidered flowers and a comfortable camisole under my lavender T-shirts is sexually deviant (or sexual anything) but I don't get very far... -

Not sure. The perp is a minor. The problem here is NOT transgender, the problem here is incompetent and criminal administration. See https://www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/family-of-loudoun-co-student-sexually-assaulted-ineptitude-of-all-involved-is-staggering/3231725/ It is more than annoying that people think the problem here is TG and that other people think the solution is some stupid statewide law. Like an appendectomy to deal with an ingrown toe nail. Since Loudon, I recall a boy was asked not to use the girl's restroom at a high school by one of the girls. He, overwhelming her with height and weight, assaulted her, claiming he had a right to be there. Later I think eight girls beat him severely in another girl's restroom. Again the problem is not transgender, the problem is assaults in restrooms and common courtesy. TG is used as a smokescreen and it seems to paralyze thought among administrators who do not want to do anything to provoke controversy. -

Time to get with your Primary Care doctor and be referred to a neurologist or an orthopedist. It could be many things, too many for any of us here to guess at.
