I am amazed that "biological sex" is always defined solely by those parts of the anatomy that need to be covered by a swimsuit. Sexuality is a matter of hormones and all sorts of brain connections that constitute our ability to think or feel or prefer. What is "unbiological" about one's own perception of one's gender identity? Somehow things like synapses don't count as biological?
Can anyone explain to me the plain text aim of these anti-trans bathroom bills? As I understand it, a trans boy ādoesnāt belongā in the boysā bathroom, and must go to the girlsā bathroom instead.
This solves whatever problem is caused by him using the bathroom that matches his identity - but doesnāt it also result in a male-presenting person in the female bathroom? Doesnāt it also lead to female-presenting people in the male bathroom? Itās just causing a mirror image of the original āproblemā.
I get that the ultimate aim is just to make trans lives impossible, but I cannot for the life of me understand how anyone can present this argument with a straight face.
The goal of these policies is to find a way to exempt trans people from civil rights laws like equal protection, right to privacy, etcetera. They want to make trans people's lives unlivable. Civil rights laws and the constitution stand in the way of that goal. They wanted to be sued so they could get this case to SCOTUS.
So basically Paul Clement is now a well paid bathroom attendant. He should stand up and take a bow.
Law school has paid off. If he loses he should pull maintenance duty. This is all so pathetic - a solution in search of a non-existent problem.
My money is on Paul Clement taking this case because he's overcompensating for being a gay, closeted Republican. š
How many gender-neutral bathrooms could they build for $200,000
Ah, Martinsville, home of Indiana's Ku Klux Klan. https://justice.tougaloo.edu/sundowntown/martinsville-in/ Of course they target trans kids.

Absolutely disgusting.
