    Once again, the point is to harass trans people out of public life altogether.

    This isn’t about logic or fear, it’s hate and domineering. They’re nazis. No excuses.

      I think bathrooms are such a common issue with bigotry because shitting is a vulnerable state where in nature makes us vulnerable to tooth and claw type predators. Therefore it’s a psychological shortcut to appeal to danger and panic.

      Forgive me for making an evolutionary psych argument, but I feel comfortable that I’m not overreaching.

      Yeah. This kinda stuff might help sway some people but for the fascists drafting these bills, this is not a contradiction. The bathroom they want trans people to use is none. They want trans people to not exist.
