      The thread of this conversation is exactly why a line has to be drawn and written in law using the clearest measure there is.

        Clearest measure here wouldn’t be the “biological sex” anyway… Because going mens bathroom doesn’t require a penis, last time I checked. But it does require to be perceived as a man which relates more to other characteristics like beard and appearance. Same goes the other way around.

          And how do you define something as subjective as that in law? Absolutely absurd.

            That’s the great thing… you don’t. They are trying to solve a problem that doesn’t exist. There are already laws in place which forbid harassment. There is absolutely no need to create a law which can’t be enforced anyway and is most likely causing more trouble (for cis people too!) than just keeping things like they were.

        Oooor just let trans folk use the damn bathroom? There doesn’t need to have a line drawn
