Republican U.S. Rep. Nancy Mace of South Carolina led a charge Monday to try to ban transgender women from using women’s restrooms in the U.S. Capitol and House office buildings, following the election of a transgender lawmaker.

    Do you want super buff trans men using the women’s room? Because this is how you get super buff trans men using the women’s room.

      They don’t care. They’re trying to indicate how unwelcome Sarah McBride, the first trans woman elected to Congress, is.

      See, that’s not a bug, that’s a feature. When that happens, the more bigoted of the population will scream about men in the women’s restrooms since that is exactly the situation they’ve forced people into, then use that as further justification for more bathroom bills. It’s a self-perpetuating cycle of discrimination against a minority group and the conservatives couldn’t be happier about it.

    As an act of civil disobedience someone should remove the gender signs from every single bathroom at the capitol.

    Also, grow up Mace. You’re the weirdo for caring so much about where people shit.
