Ha. That was my idea, but they didn't invite me. Bitches.

I'd love to see the looks on their faces when a group of trans-women go into the men's room as they are required to do by law.

If they go in and visit it will be good press. If they are disruptive it will backfire.
Not saying they will be disruptive but it has happened in the past.

Why don't you go anyway? Maybe they didn't invite you but for this issue being there is important. There needs to be a well behaved group of trans people there and the more the merrier. Remember to use the legally mandated restroom :laugh:

I'd rather see the looks on the women's face when the trans-men use the ladies room :)

Awesome idea and if for nothing else, it will help bridge the gap to the oppressors. I'd go if i was going to be anywhere near there on that Sunday.
When the spokesperson laughed and remarked that they will welcome them with the message of the gospel, i sort of wonder what message specifically. Of God's love for all men and the greatest commandment of all?

That is the dangerous thing this election did. The bathroom meme was a lie. The law didn't address bathrooms. It wasn't illegal before and it isn't now. However, now people think it is, and we are in real danger.

I definitely agree with you on this. It should had never been put up to vote for several reasons and this is one of them. The other reason is that a civil right for a minority should never be put on a ballot. Unfortunately the city of Houston was forced to be an Texas judge.
