This is a letter written by a mother of an FTM (or so it appears based on the letter) after a man chased her son out of a public men's room and screamed at her in public insisting her son, which he refers to as "it", is female.

Personal thought, am I the only one who wonders why a grown man is naked in a men's room? 

[Vicky]

Its a good thing he was naked, otherwise he would have torn a hole in his underwear (maybe)!! 

The entire vision of what was going on there is ludicrous, but I believe it happened.

Strangely, I don't react with the same righteous anger. It's quite possible the guy was emotionally disturbed in some way. It may be he was just as much (or more) of a dark cheerio as the young transgender boy.

This would seem to be the most logical explanation to me. I have seen more than a few genetic females use the men's room and have never thought a thing of it especially when there is a huge line-up outside of the women's room, bladders about to burst. I have even gone so far as to hold the door and escort one to a stall to offset any anxiety, not that anyone else in the men's room would even care because they are just there to do their business and get out.

In Ariz., Tenn., and Mass. bills are currently being considered to deny access to bathroom facilities for transgender people, i.e. MTFs must use the men's room and FTMs must use the women's room.

just proves people are just too worried that the their days of being able to go through the day with out questioning themselves and attitudes are coming to an end, serious, i think he was just embarrased as lack of size, i think its a guy thing ?

What are they gonna do, pants people at the door? And what about people who have had bottom surgery?

That's ridiculous. What are they going to do, make people strip down naked and show their genitals to a security guard before being allowed access to the restroom? What of post-op individuals? Waste of time, making such stupid legislature.

Man, you just beat me to it!

Edit: Wow, literally same thing I was about to say. Darn computer lag.

Great minds think alike.

And so do ours.

Mmmm

North Korea has got a looney running around threatening people, half of Africa or more are/will die from HIV, kids are getting sexually abused and it is not dealt with, domestic violence appears to be increasing, the USA is financially bankrupt,

and-----AZ want to know what's in your pants in order to have a pee.


Nice to know people have a firm grip on the issues in life.

Indeed ridiculous.
How about they also start measuring as well!

Cindy A fat little spoilt brat, he is not mad but delusional that Nth Korea even matters in todays world.

I think it is easy for fools to move into areas that they are not familiar with. The ability of NK to launch anything is limited, there ability to aid a terrorist organisation, themselves or another with a weapon on a ship or some sort of scenario is real.

His loss of face needs to be understood.

He does not live in a world that we are in the least bit familiar with.

He may not be able to back down.

He is playing poker with no chips and no IOU ability.

  A fat, chubby cheeked spoiled brat indeed!  Ok, back to the subject.  A trouser check?  A TSA for the bathroom?  What next?  Crapper police?  This post 9/11 society is getting out of hand!

"I'm sorry, but your measurements indicate a micropenis condition, which is unacceptable for entry into the men's room. Please feel free to locate the nearest differently-abled facilities in this establishment or otherwise. Note my usage of politically correct terminology, now have a nice day and refrain from using male-designated restrooms unless proper surgery is performed to give you sufficient length."
