While walking into the restroom designated for your gender. you see someone of the opposite gender is following you into the same restroom. Would you feel apprehensive, scared, or violated if something like that happened to you? Yes, you would. Many people now think that a transgender restroom should be a common concept, and that it should be OK if a grown gentleman follows a little girl to the restroom. Transgenders only make up .3% of America 's population. I know this due to the fact that I have done extensive research on the topic of transgender restroom and, I believe that once you hear what I have to say I will have altered your mind for the better. I want you to feel concerned for the safety of the public, and informed on why transgender …show more content…

In addition to bullying that has started from transgender restrooms Boycotts from customers all over the United states are going to happen when stores start to allow transgender restrooms. When stores allow transgender restrooms the public is not going to shop at those stores just from the fact that that store has transgender restrooms. Consequently, these boycotts mean less income for the store and could possibly close the store down because of transgender restrooms.As a result more than 700,000 have pledged to boycott target for its transgender restrooms already and this is just the start for boycotts. Stores will close down because of transgender restrooms, people will have to move when their store closes down because of transgender restrooms, and the community will start to plunge all as a result of transgender restrooms. However, there is a way to prevent all this from starting and that way is to not have transgender restrooms in the first place. If we could stop the problem from the source then, the problem will not spread just like a …show more content…

Although I have discussed about bullying and boycotts, the prime reason transgender restrooms are a complication is safety. Some individuals may ask why were separate restrooms created? Male and female restrooms were created to separate males, and females from each other so that the two genders have privacy and safety while they are using the restrooms. Transgender restrooms ignore the purpose of restrooms.Transgender lavatories infringe the privacy of the opposite gender in a dangerous way. Transgender washrooms are most of all a safety endangerment for everyone involved. Transgender restrooms will be swimmingly abused because there will be no “potty police” standing by the restroom doors at all time, so therefor there will be no way to control the transgender lavatories and there would be no way to tell if someone is transgender or not. Therefore, the transgender restrooms will make it easier and faster for pedophiles and rapist to get to their victims in a closed location. Parents will not feel safe when they are letting their children run to the restroom to a store knowing the fact that any grown adult from the opposite gender could be waiting in there, for the next child to walk in. Letting your child go to the restroom by themselves will be like letting your child wander the streets at night. You will have no clue who will be in there and no clue what could happen to

The American Family Association (AFA) has listed down 10 cases of crimes targeting girls to show the danger to women and children presented by Target’s transgender bathroom policy. On Thursday, AFA president Tim Wildmon released a statement highlighting the growing evidence of the danger brought about by Target’s policy to let men use women’s restrooms and dressing rooms in its outlets. While Target has justified its decision to implement the transgender bathroom policy to make everyone feel welcome, Wildmon insists that the rule only gives sexual predators access to victims, The Christian Post relays. “Clearly, Target 's dangerous policy poses a threat to wives and daughters,” said Wildmon.

It brings up the complication that if someone is not Trans and feels uncomfortable in their own restroom their discomfort is to be ignored. The biggest problem with this is that “If any of this makes a child uncomfortable, the administration's response is "too bad." According to the letter, a transgender student's discomfort must always be accommodated, but if another student feels similar discomfort, those concerns must always be ignored because the administration has pre-emptively deemed all "others' discomfort" unjustified. When a young female says she feels uncomfortable or even unsafe sharing bathrooms and locker rooms with males, she isn't being discriminatory, and her complaints shouldn't be dismissed as veiled bigotry by the same Education Department that has preached to schools the importance of creating environments where students feel secure. ”(Pruitt)

Walking through the hallways at school you have the opportunity to see all different kinds of diversity. People of all different races, genders, and religions surround you everyday. Being a part of the community and being a good citizen means including and accepting the people around you. And not treating them any differently than you would want to be treated yourself. Loretta Lynch’s speech, “Address Announcing Complaint Against North Carolina et al re Transgender Law” uses pathos and ethos to advocate for the transgender community to allow them to use the gendered bathroom they are comfortable in.

In Gavin Grimm’s case, transgenders claim they have the rights to use whatever restroom they personally identify with. However, in reality and concordance with biological truths, they are false. In Proverbs 18:2, the Bible says, “Fools have no interest in understanding, they only want to air their own opinions” (New Living Translation). According to a Biblical definition of a fool, transgenders have claimed to be wise, but in reality they have become fools.

The American Family Association were among the first to disapprove of Target’s policy that allows employees and customers who are transgendered to occupy bathrooms that correspond to their gender identity. Target’s policy is geared towards an inclusive gendered usage bathroom system however, this idea was not shared. AFA claimed that this policy exposed specifically women and girls to sex predators because the policy "means a man can simply say he feels like a woman today and enter the women 's restroom ... this is exactly how sexual predators get access to their victims”.

The Stonewall Riots are said to mark the beginning of the modern LGBT rights movement, and it was largely initiated by transgender women of color. Over the next few decades, legislation would be enacted to aid the cause for equality. By 1977, trans athletes could play on the teams of their gender identities, and by 1993 anti-discrimination laws were extended to transpeople in Minnesota. In the 21st century alone, transpeople were getting invited to the White House, playing in college sports, and serving as judges, all without having to hide who they were (“Milestones in the American Transgender Movement”). Hardships are still all too common, unfortunately, but much progress has been made nonetheless, and the fight continues to this

Canadians take pride in their health care system; however, most Canadians are unaware of the disparities that exist for transgender persons within health care. Being ridiculed, denied care, or treated unjustly because of a self-identification as transgender goes against the core values of the nursing profession (Canadian Nurses Association, 2009); despite this, ten percent of transgender participants in the Ontario Trans PULSE survey reported that they had experienced these demonstrations of prejudice when accessing emergency room services. This statistic may be lower than the reality due to transgender persons frequently avoiding the health care system (Bauer & Scheim, 2015). According to the Canadian Nurses Association (CNA) Code of Ethics (2009) nursing staff are expected to provide, “safe, compassionate, competent, and ethical care” (p. 3); however, due to lack of policies and lack of education nursing staff and physicians are detrimentally adding to the stressors of transgender life.

While in the restroom, stalls are provided that give the privacy everyone wants and is supposed to be granted, however in the picture someone is invading another person's privacy by looking over the top of the stall and saying “Just makin’ sure you ain’t some kinda pervert” (Moore, 2016, Mar. 24). Stereotypically many people have a fear that the transgender community is just pedophiles or sexual predators that want the advantage of inclusiveness with restrooms to be able to sexually assault a person (Crissman, 2020). While it has been studied that 36% of gender-nonbinary or transgender students that are faced with restricted locker room or bathroom access had reported being sexually assaulted (Transgender teens). In the text, not only are all words capitalized, the words mind and pervert are in bold to draw attention to them. With words like this shows the ridiculousness of the situation and sheds light on the stereotypes that hundreds of transgender people have been faced with.

what if you can’t do anything about it? I would not like someone to walk in who's the opposite sex, but its not just anyone coming in this person is transgender and has the same permission as you to be in those rooms. Does any of that change any opinions of yours or do you still believe the opposite sex shouldn't be there? I would not enjoy this experience happening. In the name of anti-bullying, Safe Schools are urged to let boys who believe in their mind they are a girl to use the girls’ toilets, change facilities and even sleeping quarters on school camps.

Gender neutral bathrooms will always be a topic of discussion in everyone lives, however the emotional and economic toll the restrooms would have on others could change someone’s life for the worse. If transgender male and females used their biological corresponding gender facilities, we could lessen those tolls to a minimum. The IOC has tried effortlessly to expand the opportunities for transgender athletes, but just reducing the amount of hormones in the athlete cannot change that they will always have an advantage over non-transgender competitors. One may see the tenacity and the empowerment of transgender movements unnecessary and annoying, but hopefully in future, everyone will see that these peoples stories should inspire others to stand up for what they believe
