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.”
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!’
I’m not sure what you’re saying, sorry.
I’m not trying to justify any kind of bigotry. I’m merely stating who has the issue, and who does not.
Nobody believes that.
Sure.
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.
Ok. I disagree with what you’re saying and I’m tired of reading your baseless accusations.
You’re clearly just going to believe whatever you want and ignore any information that contradicts it.
Gonna have to block you now. Goodbye.
You could have actually read what I said, taken it as constructive criticism as I was giving you the benefit of the doubt that you were being misunderstood. I guess that was a mistake.
All you had to do was edit that initial comment, and people would stop “misunderstanding” you. But I’m starting to think you know exactly what you’re doing. You’re so full of shit.
But yeah go ahead and just block me instead.
