Summary
Marcy Rheintgen, a 20-year-old transgender college student, was arrested at the Florida State Capitol after intentionally entering a women’s restroom in protest of the state’s transgender bathroom law.
Civil rights lawyers say it is the first known arrest under such laws in any U.S. state.
Rheintgen faces a misdemeanor trespassing charge and could face up to 60 days in jail.
Florida is one of only two states to criminalize such acts.
Bathrooms just need to be single person use. Then neither side could complain. Who wants to go to the bathroom with other people anyway?
If there’s no other people, what the hell would be the use of the glory hole?
You mean the laundry hole?
So you’re the one who keeps shoving dirty socks in my mouth!
not every location is capable of supporting single user bathrooms. im pretty pro-unisex bathroom anyway
If only there was some kind of “stall” they could put in that would allow multiple people to be in the same restroom and maintain their privacy…
Um, you just add a door to the bathroom if it doesn’t have one. Then you put a lock on it, and a new sign. Very easy to do.
I got a food truck bazaar near me with only one bathroom with a placard that shows the typical man/woman then a half half, and an alien reading. " Whatever, just wash your hands."
Best break down I’ve ever seen on this dumb ass debate.
Yes, I would also rather not have aliens in the restroom with me.
First the extraterrestrials come for our toilets, but then what?? You have to take a stand.
It’s just the Bolians I have an issue with. Their waste literally is corrosive and, as a simple janitor, I am just not equipped to dealing with the mess.
Seriously this. I’ve been to other places that have it figured out (Sweden in my case) and it is better in every possible way.
Well, unless you are a landlord who wants the up-front construction costs of the restrooms to be as cheap as possible regardless of how it will affect the decades of use. Or if you live in a country with no healthcare and can’t let people have privacy in the restroom because you’re afraid they’ll OD in there.
I’m here, sweden is better in literally every possible way.
Watching the US from this vantage point is like watching 50 great whites start tearing into each other because someone threw blood in the water.
I don’t even want to look that up. It sounds so real it could be.
Just like removing benches in public spaces to prevent use by homeless people.
That and hostile architecture is why I believe it
What I had in mind while making that comment was past stories of establishments putting blue light bulbs in their bathrooms to make it harder to find veins. :/

Wow, I have never heard of that, but interesting idea!
