    Single-sex toilets and changing rooms in England, Wales and Scotland must exclude transgender men and women

    That’s the problem. It’s legislation aimed at the erasure of trans men and women. It feeds into the deep transphobic fearmongering that the terfs do. It legitimizes the idea that trans men and women are predators waiting to pounce in the toilet of their proper gender. And that’s about as many words as I’m willing to waste on this. You seem to have been in this space long enough to have picked up on these ideas, and you spouting nonsense AKIN (emphasis added so you can’t ignore the word AKIN that I just wrote) to “but gay men can marry women, so we already have marriage equality” is just you being obtuse.

      And if you’re capable of reading just a little bit more than the first headline

      according to a new code of practice from the equalities watchdog.

      That’s not what the legislation says. How are you still unable to comprehend this after i quoted the actual court ruling to you?

      The court literally ruled that there MUST be a practical alternative to those that do not wish to use the bathroom designated for their biological sex.

      That’s not banning people from bathrooms.

        This is not a solution to the problem. As I stated, and pretty much everyone else here, the problem is that people are barred from the bathroom OF THEIR SPECIFIC GENDER. How dense can you be? I’m blocking you, this is ridiculous and pointless.

          The court just ruled the bathrooms are not divided between genders, they’re divided between the sexes. Your gender does not matter. And they also ruled there must be bathrooms for everyone.

          You really are a fascinating creature. The UK just made it law that everyone must have a bathroom they feel comfortable in. And you think that’s a problem.
