Nebraska’s Republican Gov. Jim Pillen on Wednesday signed an executive order strictly defining a person’s sex.
The order notably does not use the term “transgender,” although it appears directed at limiting transgender access to certain public spaces. It orders state agencies to define “female” and “male” as a person’s sex assigned at birth.
“It is common sense that men do not belong in women’s only spaces,” Pillen said in a statement. “As Governor, it is my duty to protect our kids and women’s athletics, which means providing single-sex spaces for women’s sports, bathrooms, and changing rooms.”
And you think a fucking law will stop that?
I thought it was a bathroom law, not a fucking law…
I mean, no law is 100% effective.
Are you saying we shouldn’t have laws against murder because people will still murder?
We already have laws against sexual assault and harassment. The purpose of this law is to harass trans people not to protect anyone.
It will end up only hurting people, many of whom won’t even be trans. We’ve already seen masculine-looking women getting subjected to this kind of law in other states. It’s nothing more than the government abusing its own citizens.
Trans people taking a dump aren’t hurting anyone.
Murder is bad
A woman having a shit in a stall (whilst having a Y chromosome) is pretty neutral
Anyway, answer the FtM question
I did.
Watch your tone.
I apologise for missing your comment
Watch your tone, says constant bigot.
What are you talking about?
On trans women: “I think the main concern comes from females not wanting males in their bathroom.”
On bigoted laws being ‘another victory for Christianity’: “The idea that the US is not a nation run by Christians is just wrong.”
What are you talking about?
What I said was completely true.
Men don’t care about women in their restrooms, lol. It’s usually women and especially TERFs who are upset about trans people using their bathrooms.
Please tell me why this is bigoted. I really want to know.
You’re describing trans women as “males.”
You’re treating this as valid justification… for anything.
Jesus fuck, eighty years ago, would we be having this conversation about segregation? ‘Well the main concern is whites not wanting blacks at the front of the bus. What? Why the rude gestures? Haha, it’s not usually the blacks complaining!’
Are you actually this dense, or are you just feigning ignorance? You seem confused as to why people here are acting so hostile towards you, while you parrot and legitimize the talking points you’re claiming to disagree with.
Stop talking out of both sides of your mouth, and maybe people will be more civil towards you.
I think you’re not paying attention to what I’m saying.
Go through my comments and then come back.
There’s a reason everyone is downvoting you, and it’s not tribalism. If you care at all about trans rights, you’d go through your own comments and maybe give some thought as to why so people are apparently misunderstanding you.
Here, I’ll get you started: You called trans women “males” in the first comment of yours that I replied to. So not only were you legitimizing their bigotry, you were also using the purposefully vitriolic language that they use when they convey that bigotry. You (seemingly intentionally) misgendered them.
Maybe take a moment to consider why people may have taken umbridge with that.
That first comment then colors every other comment of yours read after. You’ve parroted transphobic talking points, using their purposely offensive language. Anything you say after that is assumed to be in bad faith.
We already have laws against spying on people in the bathroom, and it applies to everyone.
Ok, why are you telling me this?
Tell it to the guy who thinks laws don’t work.
Because your argument is invalid either way. This law doesn’t protect women from bathroom predators. We have laws that protect women from bathroom predators, and if they are effective, we don’t need this law, and if they are ineffective, then we don’t need this law.
The purpose of this law is to discriminate against transgender individuals. Any other justification is bullshit.
Yes, which is effective. If it wasn’t, then why would people be getting upset?
I would like a law that religious figure are no longer eligible to run tax free organizations if they meet at the White House
I mean, churches shouldn’t be tax exempt no matter what.
I am fine with that. Tax them the way we do corporations. Same for any group that lobbies, like CATO. It is obnoxious how the wealthy are able to lobby can get jobs for their nephew by proxy tax avoidance schemes.
Koch wants certain laws passed. Koch gives money to CATO so CATO can lobby for them. CATO is a non-profit.

No.
Why are you attacking me personally?
Uhhh, you’re the one typing.
Uhh, yeah. It’s a social platform.
That doesn’t mean you can just attack me personally. Especially if you don’t understand what I’m saying, lol.
Sorry you feel otherwise.
It does, I can, and I did.
Please refrain from personally attacking people. It doesn’t help your point at all, and it is indeed against the rules.
Alright, just gonna report and block you because personal attacks are against the rules.
Be civil.
I’ve been pretty civil, you’re the transphobic bigot making stupid arguments. Report yourself.
