Compassionate hypotheticals aside, take a look and get back to me.
MassResistance — March 12, 2010 — Transgender madness in Massachusetts: The Peabody Marriott Hotel hosted the annual "First Event" transgender conference on January 15-17, 2009.
For all of you liberals who preach tolerance and inclusion, be honest. Would you really have no problem with a man in heels in the ladies room?
Ladies...?

What I find funny is that TG/TS people are already using their bathrooms every day and they have no idea. I'm pretty sure a lot of people have been helped out of a toilet paper bind thanks to a TG/TS person.

Had a look at it for a while, but it kept stopping and starting. About 2 secs of video followed by about 10 secs of waiting.
Yeah, that'll work!!

If I'm ever involved in the creation of a shop or something large enough to have a restroom with multiple stalls, I'll see if it's legal to build a European-style restroom - unisex, but with floor-to-ceiling stalls that offer more privacy while you're on the pot.
That being said, all this "men are going to go into women's bathrooms and RAEP THEMSS o noes!!" stuff is pretty silly. A rapist or other unreasonable person isn't going to obey the applicable laws and regulations anyhow, and a reasonable person isn't going to go out of their way to scare people. If people are scared by a trans person who just wants to go to the bathroom, too bad!

Can't remember if I have said this before, but always for a good anecdote.
A few years ago, I was at one of those meeting in a large field. There were portable toilets laid on in the form of two vans, one for male other female.
Anyway, the female one had a long queue. the male was barely being used. So I suggested to the women that if they didn't mind, they could use the men's stalls, since they were unused.
It was quite surprising how many men got upset. Shoe on the other foot sort of thing. But once the women had started, there was little anyone could do about it. :D
OK, so I shook the tree a bit. I'm sorry. I was just trying to help. <hangs head in a good act of shame> ::)

Ye it starts and stops for me too. I think it strange that someone felt comfortable filming people going in and out of the bathroom. As to some of those he or she called women in a dress, I couldn't tell, how could they?

These politico/religious types are getting pretty strange.
Just watched a video on another forum. One group in Texas calls itself Army of God and harrasses people who they think are doing things they don't like.
Southern Baptists are claiming they are praying for the deaths of people they don't like. The recent death of a Democrat Congressman is claimed by them.
They were also praying for the death of Obama. But they've decided to stop for a while because the leader is sueing Obama for not being an American.
I kid you not.

The sad/funny thing is that they give away so much when they go there. Are they really that into bathroom stuff, scat, water sports et. all.? I had a co-ed bathroom in college, at many, many places I've lived and several times a year at work - and really, its not all that damn interesting. As it turns out, everyone's ->-bleeped-<- - in fact - stinks. You get in and get out. What is the deal?

I love that the name of the extremist Christian group is the exact translation of "Hezbollah." :laugh:
