This isn’t just ignorant, it’s also a complete waste of taxpayer dollars and good will. Do something that matters, Johnson.
Do you REALLY want him to do something he thinks matters?
Uh, good point.
What a prat. As a member of Gen X, I’m deeply ashamed. We were supposed to be the first generation not to care about people’s gender and sexuality.
I think it should be said. I went to a reading of the names this year, as I have in some form every year since 2015; and I’ve never seen so many children’s names read. For context, the names are of the people murdered in transphobic hate crimes in the past year. It used to be a notable tragedy when a 15 year old was driven to suicide and this year we had multiple 14 year olds dead by others’ hands.
Speaker Johnson doesn’t care though. I’m sure he’d say his behavior today was in those children’s best interests, but no the transphobia he is promoting is killing children both by emboldening bigots and by driving them to hopelessness.
I hope someday he has to stand before his victims and a deity and explain himself. I hope he begins acting in a way so as to make it a less unpleasant experience when he gets to that point.
So unisex bathrooms aren’t a thing, aka, normal bathrooms?
Also the dismantling of government agencies begins! First step, OSHA!

I was in Europe and they had full unisex bathrooms. There were only stalls and the dividers were floor to near 8 feet. And no gaps you could see through on the doors. It was no big deal, everyone just did their thing and left.
The only place I’ve experienced this in the US is Red Rocks Amphitheatre. Some of their restrooms are exactly like you describe. Full height stalls (small rooms basically) with a shared sink area. Literally no one I saw has had an issue with it. You just go, wait in line with everyone else, and take a stall when your turn comes. No issue and no confusion. There is no reason this can’t be the norm in the US.
The cruelty is the point.
Perhaps I read too many stories where humans are past this kind of bigotry. I hope so much for such a time—some day. But living amidst the constant hate and bigotry… it hurts so much. It’s so very tiring.
Sorry, but us hairless chimps will forever be scared of the other hairless chimps on the other side of the hill.
Some perhaps. Not all. And not all to the same degree. It’s something we can work to move beyond. That ability is also human nature.
Petty pathetic and normal for the GOP. Too bad they did not pass a Nazi bathroom ban but I guess to close to home.
Why do Republicans want people with PENISES to use your DAUGHTERS Bathroom?
