I have never seen that, but it's only because I've always had the foresight and good sense to only walk into a mens restroom. Or in the event of there being no such specifically designated restroom I could get to in a timely manner... discretely conceal my prese ...[text shortened]... lever concealment of the identities of above mentioned aliases have been cleverly concealed.[/i]

Do you think any run of mill atheist might understand how the timing of a newly minted class of 'victims' has very little to do with any real issue of discrimination?
It doesn't take being a theist or an atheist for anyone to realise this so called issue was created for a pupose that has nothing to do with the issue itself. This isn't the first time we've seen some phoney baloney issue created from thin air to be used for politcal purposes. I mean come on, it pops up from no where shortly before American candidates are chosen and a new president is elected.
Hello, is anyone else seeing this for what it is... anyone?
The people responsible for making this an issue know full well what they are trying to accomplish, and they are more than happy to fool others of their own politcal persuation into going along with it.

When people call victims 'victims' I call that discrimination.

So what would YOU call a victim who calls himself a victim, but is ONLY a victim because he says he is? And on a different note, what would you call someone who believes everything he hears no matter how stupid and self serving it may be?
Originally posted by BigDoggProblem Ever notice that right-wing Christians are the ones who worry the most about perverts in the bathroom? Wonder why that is? 😛
Perhaps it's because left-wing liberal atheists don't care about what can happen, unless it happens to them.

Originally posted by Suzianne This 'issue' is called 'basic human rights'.
The key word in that is "basic", meaning rights that apply to everyone and anyone. A right that only applies to a special or elite group of people is not by definition a basic right, it's an entitlement.
A man who thinks he might be a women may feel as though he is entitled to whip it out in a ladies restroom, but that sort of reasoning has rarely worked as a defense for lascivious and lewd behavior... it might earn someone a ticket to the loony bin (thereby avoiding jail or prison time) but for the most part we are all expected to use good judgement and common sense when in public.
And if you've ever encountered a predatory victim you should already know that not all self described victims are what they say they are.
