Believe it? Is the bathroom "problem" really that bad?

Does that include pedophiles?

I have absolutely no problem with transgender people wanting rights etc, but the bathroom bitching is one of the stupidest fricking things ever.

Gay people are just closeted transgenders.

The problem with this is how it has become politicized. There are people that have issues due to hormones from in utero through adolescence. This needs to be talked about from a scientific stand point, not about where people are going to the bathroom.

I think at least half in that number are confused and trying to draw attention to themselves.

Being a transgendered is the trendy way to draw attention to yourself now. It pretty much trumps a fake gluetin allergy and it one ups gayness.

I have to agree. Use the bathroom that matches what you look like and no one is the wiser.....unless one of you are doing something very inappropriate in there, now one should know.

I have no doubt that many of those people are born fricked up with no fault of their own. But I also so believe far more are just proud deviates.

No it doesn't... 1 in 330 or so isn't even close.

We've all met at least 500 to 1000 people, and I've met a total of 1 transgendered person.

No special treatment, no extra attention... & IDGAF what you think you are - all 1.4 million of you.

Sorry, but statistics aren't based on your personal interactions

I've met tens of thousands of people, and only two were trannies. Did meet one cross dresser guy that got mad that I accidentally called him "him" and threatened to hit me with his guitar. His wife was also there

Eta: Oh yeah, there's a Chinese one at UNO that struggles sadly in heels around campus. So that makes three out of tens of thousands for me

Not really. I can't say that my limited interactions are representative of an entire nation.

These people are a statistical anomaly which is why it's asinine that we should completely upend our lifestyles and laws to accommodate a statistically insignificant group.

Half a percent? I doubt it. It sounds more like classic Obama-esque "re-defining" of a term.

Perhaps. I said in the ballpark, not in the infield.

What 'rights' do these body-mutilators not have?
