And that’s basically it!
The intense interest some politician have for everyone else's crotch is fascinating, if not a bit weird.
I'm pan and I think about people's genitals less than they do.
Penis Inspection Day is serious business in Idaho.
Seriously though. This wasn't a thing everywhere?
Once again my home state making all the worst headlines 🫠
They recently banned birth cert gender marker changes and I still can't figure out if that means my current cert is invalid. Now I can't even pee in my home town without going to prison. I love my hometown it's like Hobbiton, it's pretty, people are mostly very kind, it's a place to go to live a calm life. But it is in Idaho, and is entering into the last stages of a christofascist takeover decades in the making.
I'll probably never get to see where I grew up again, sit at the giant fountain, dig in the clay heavy dirt that's blacker than the roads, or see the breathtaking pink and gold sunsets over the endless hills. I hope the people who took this from me live full of misery followed by an early grave.
Maybe it's time to leave the Nazi country before it does more Nazi stuff.
Such an easy solution for everyone. Just up and leave.
Is it easy to stay in that environment?
Who said it was easy? Would you leave Nazi Germany when they started exterminating the mentally challenged, socialists and communists? Or would you furrow your brow and say it's just too hard to move?
Jumping to nazi germany already? You must be fresh from Reddit
Yeah, I'd have to be green in order to compare the country that Nazi Germany took notes from, to that country, which is actively taking notes from Nazi Germany.
Not a big fan of history, hey?
Naww, take back the country from the Nazis.
Fuck that. Dissolution and balkanization of the states. The experiment was a resounding failure.
Yeah they really don't understand anything related to biology.
Good thing that DNA, genitals and gender are always 100% correlated right.
Repubs just wanna make sure the children they are about to rape are genetically boys, I think, since girls just don't get the blood pumpin for them.
These folks wouldnt mind a hard filter that eliminates all cases where those aren't correlated.
Yeah they really don’t understand anything related to biology.
BuT It's bAsIc bIoLoGy!!
Man oh man, advanced biology is gonna blow some minds!
So which ones are the XXY bathrooms?
If we take the UK, who is leading by example, those bathrooms are "In your fucking house. Get out of here ******."
Which I think is the answer in Idaho too. They just don't have the balls to say it out loud. In typical American fascist fashion, they will go hide at home and make a judge explain that the law technically says that.
I think in Idaho the answer is "Washington or Oregon, we've taken the liberty of getting rid of your house"
This issue is right up there with healthcare as far as the level of stupidity (just not the level of death) because we collectively in the US won't take a note from other countries that do it better. Plus, you know, respecting human dignity.
Restrooms don't need to be gendered in the first place if they give you some damn privacy.
But as an american I know all too well that private bathrooms means potential small costs for landlords, and the ability for employees to hide and/or drug addicts to shoot up, so half the country would fight the change until their dying breath.

It’s not like I’m checking what that guy in the next stall is doin’. Hell I think I’m in heaven when I go to a place that has doors that go to the floor.
The gold standard in my experience is Sweden. They probably do the same thing in other countries, but that's the place I have visited.
Instead of having a single big open men's room with 2-3 toilets and a couple sinks, next to a single big open ladies' room with a similar layout, there is a short hallway with four doors on each side. Behind each door is a small restroom with its own toilet and sink. I think they each had a urinal too.
It is superior in every single way except maybe for initial construction cost. It has a higher number of toilets which are all gender neutral, on top of actual privacy and there not being a "bad time" to go if it's busy.
It makes total sense if you give a shit about people and aren't trying to penny pinch construction costs while making the facilities user-hostile so that peons don't spend too much time in there.
A local restaurant just set up its reno'd bathrooms like this. Like a private oasis
Kill the rich, save the poor. Taxation, is not enough for the current era. There must be justice for the crimes committed. Once they are dead, then we can figure out how to run the world without capitalism. Untill then, the elimination of the ultra-rich by any means should be the goal. Everything else is noise.
Quick, search his computer.
Small government, everyone.
Exactly.
A small government.
Small enough to fit in the pants of every trans person and child in America.
Eh it fits in everyone else's pants too. Gotta make sure everyone is using their government approved genitals for only government (a subsidiary of religion corp) sanctioned activities
Uhm… you cannot tell someone’s gender from their piss far as we’re aware =﹏=;;;
Guarantee it won't be sufficient if they think you look trans. Especially not if you're a trans person with a sex chromosomal abnormality
In response, can we declare that the homes of these idiots are public bathrooms now? Since we wouldn't be able to go inside like our modern society dictates. Time to regress I guess.
Idaho is famous for potatoes because potatoes have higher IQ than their average citizen
You want people to pee outside the bathroom door, because this is how you get people to pee outside the bathroom door.
Pee on the door.
Idaho is where we shipped all the MAGAts in California to. You don’t want to live in that cesspool.
I knew it would come to this
A pissing contest where men determine who and who isn't a woman
Where do genuinely intersex people take a piss
Piss on Idaho.
Oh Idaho, that state I live within a 30 minute drive of but find myself in maybe once a year for all of 30 minutes.
lmao
Time to start shipping pee to the GOP lawyer. Unless they're into that.
... They probably are.

These people are especially interested in children's genitals. I wonder why?
