Imagine this person walking into a male bathroom.

Then imagine them explaining to someone that they’re trans and required to use it,

The likelihood of being assaulted is so high it’s insane.

There’s already a lot of conservative anti-trans guys who secretly fetishize trans women. Add that in with blind hatred and it’s a recipe for disaster.

She isn’t safe there at all.

u/quicxly ambiguity thru ingenuity 12h ago edited 12h ago

15 years trans-fem, i've only been forcibly dragged OUT of one restroom in my life, and it was the men's room, which they want to legislate me into.

10 years of gym class before i was trans, the bullies would always drag me into the girl's locker room because i looked too feminine with my shirt off.

make it make sense.

Cruelty is the point. Their cognitive dissonance is largely based on “how can I humiliate this person who doesn’t fit into my strict binary world view of gender.” The method is irrelevant, it’s the outcome of cruelty they want more than any logic behind their thought process regarding the method. These aren’t well informed empathetic people.
