So I'm thinking about this when I read Waymon's post this weekend about the scare-mongering the Religious RIght uses to prevent non-discrimination legislation to protect gender identity. These folks get held up on the bathroom issue because they think it's a winning argument.

Alex's suggestion would probably have exactly the effect that's laid out in the blog.

Public sex seems like a sort of degrading thing anyhow and the presence of any and everyone would certainly place a damper, I would think, on the toe-tapping, etc.

But, perhaps the people who are have a vested interest in maintaining that sort of stuff would oppose it. Afterall, many of them are apparently in Congress. :)
