Awooga! Awooga! My fellow Americans, this is not a drill!
Transgender people occasionally need to relieve themselves and they occasionally need to do it in public restrooms!
Terrifying, right?!?!?!?!?!!?!??!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?
Actually, no. Not at all. But by the way politicians, religious righters, and regular ol' citizens are reacting, you'd think that they are storming Target restrooms en masse and maniacally laughing while they piss and ->-bleeped-<- radioactive nuclear waste or killer bees or "Fuller House" episodes.

Here's a great editorial that you may want to post a link to on your facebook account, sardonic yet serious. it's doubtful that haters will read it, but the only way to really counter bathroom transphobia is through education. This will be going on my facebook page later.

Whenever this topic comes up amongst my social circle, my argument is: What's stopping a predator from dressing up today and attacking or raping someone?
Isn't that what people are afraid of? They are not legalizing attacks and rapes!
I'm not out (yet) and nobody knows, so it's interesting to hear their opinions. I wonder if they'd talk differently if they knew...hehe
