Most people don’t realise.

Most people also don’t realise that it’s perfectly legal to fire someone suspected of being trans in 38 states – including many that give rights to gays. Or to deny them use of “public accommodations”, such as travel by taxi, train, or bus, the right to enter theatres or be served at restaurants, even to use public drinking fountains or sidewalks.

In Pennsylvania, a Federal court has ruled that as Intersexed and trans people are neither men nor women, they can’t be discriminated against on the basis of sex. As legal “natural persons” are also defined as being men, women, or children, and they’re not children, they’re “persona ficta”, in the same category as corporations, and slaves used to be.

It’s thus not possible in that Federal circuit to assault or murder them – but their person or estate (as owner) can bring charges of felony criminal damage to valuable property, (ie their bodies), the same way slaveowners could before 1864. They may also be covered in cruelty to animals laws, but there’s no caselaw there.

Dears, you MUST wash your hands with hot water and soap prior to leaving the restroom. The length of time to wash is the time it takes to sing “Happy Birthday” twice. Suggest you sing it silently and NOT
at full volume. Should you not have the time to properly scrub then please wear rubber gloves and discard them upon departure in the bin. I’ll be watching you: mothers see all.

Oh that makes my heart hurt to think violence like that is still happening in our society.

For some combinations of unclear reasons — her bladder is turbo-speed and I tend to loiter in front of the mirror, drink a glass of water, etc. — TKOG always completed her trips to the bathroom faster than I did. In fact, that was central to her grand scheme living in dorms and when we started dating, as discussed at length in this post from the first month of NTKOG:

Whoa, Muscles, that was one of the most uncomfortable yet erotic things I’ve read since TKOG’s awkward erotica project. :-)

I’ve used the woman’s restrooms many when I had colitus. I wasn’t proud but way better than sh*tting myself. And I always left the bathroom cleaner than I found it!

You sparked a memory- At an outdoor concert venue here in Pgh, the tailgators would run up into the woods to pee. Half the time there would be some girl’s boyfriend standing guard
as she squatted near a tree. inevitably he’d spot us and snarl,
“Hey, what are you looking at!” My legendary response right before I got into the last fight of my life, “Someone you could lose forty pounds.” ;)
