Fox News pundit: Everyone will soon wear diapers to avoid trans people in bathro

[SlateRDays]

Wow that's really messed up and sad. No one should have to go through that either. If only we could pee in space and not have to worry. I'm keeping an eye on how this issue turns out. Take care everyone!

[JessicaSondelli]

Meanwhile, I keep empty plastic bottles in my car... Sad but true...

More unisex restrooms is really good for us non-binary folks. Most festivals just have a bunch of unisex port-o-pottys and everything works out fine. Why does it have to be any different for more permanent facilities?

A Fox News pundit has claimed that people will soon take up wearing adult diapers to avoid transgender people in bathrooms.

Um, are we sure that this isn't actually from The Onion?  I don't follow Faux News, but a lot of the stuff I hear quoted sounds like self-parody.

(Unfortunately, I've noticed that PinkNew doesn't always get US news right.  E.g., in another article, they write "district court in Norfolk" when it was actually "court of appeals in Richmond".)

So in essence, that article is claiming that the people against trans are a bunch of babies.

Always remember to smile your face

This made me laugh
Thank you

Nope.  That is really Fox News.

Let her put her money where her mouth is. 

If "everyone" is going to be wearing diapers, I'll donate the first $5 to purchase a package of diapers for her so she can prove her point.

I am all for putting the news pundits who hate on us to good use. I'm thinking little pictures strategically placed where those who are learning to pee with unfamiliar equipment might practice their aim. And oh, Sean Hannity would top my list.

Hope that didn't get me in trouble. It was heartfelt.

not to defend. But I am sure she was making a snarky joke

So as I understand it, the average fox viewer is 70 and male.  Promoting diapers to their viewers seems like a natural thing for them to do anyway.

Just sayin,

The problem is, when the bathroom is labeled "family/handicap" people without an obvious handicap get grief for using it, and that is often us. My roommate (ex spouse) has a legitimate handicap but if she isn't having much trouble walking that day people always hassle her for parking in a handicap spot, even with her plate.

Wow, I've never been hassled yet for parking in disabled spots, but I've had my placard for under eighteen months and walk with an obvious limp. Perhaps my time has not yet come.

I usually use disabled stalls under particular circumstances. Although I don't have a walker or wheelchair, I have trouble navigating narrow stalls because of my foot. Those tiny stalls are particularly problematic when I'm carrying a big briefcase (and sometimes other stuff) and can't turn around easily without pain because I'm juggling my bag and accommodating my stupid foot. If the stalls weren't so ridiculously cramped, I'd have no worries.

Fox News does get one thing wrong. Those transphobes people will be wearing diapers, but not adult diapers.

"A Fox News pundit has claimed that people will soon take up wearing adult diapers to avoid transgender people in bathrooms.
Laura Ingraham, a talk radio host and O'Reilly Factor pundit, made the prediction on her radio show.
Referring to a backlash about transgender people in bathrooms, Ingraham predicted that conservative grown-ups will soon resort to wearing nappies."

That's fine, especially if I don't have to. I'm a liberal and believe in equal rights.

That's the problem with Cons. They make the snarky joke than make a half hearted apology. Everyone knows they are disingenuous  And everyone walks away. I think they as television journalists they should aspire to higher standards.

The last time I got grief for using anything designated for handicap people was when I lived in SanFrancisco. People demanded I give up my seat, and stand, so someone else could sit there. It seemed they ignored the fact I used crutches in order to walk. I even got to sue the Muni transit system, when a bus diver took off while I was still in the stairwell.

Okay folks. No bashing or attacking others and that includes News Networks please. Please keep in mind TOS 5, 10, and 15. Thanks

Dayyam. You've had some interesting experiences...I hope you don't have any more like these.

If all public restrooms could be multi-user unisex with adequately private stalls and a common sink area there would be no need for separate gender specific or family restrooms.
